Search Filters on Compendium Creatures

October 12 (2 years ago)

Hello,

is there a way to filter monsters by damage resistances/immunities, by condition immunities and maybe even by legeandary actions, bonus actions or weather they have a breath weapon?

In the Monsters List adding a new filter eg for immunity and typing "cold" does not work.

Thanks already in advance for any answers.

Which game is this for? 

For the 5e compendium there is no way to search by these criteria.

You can sort by creature type, and a number of creatures of the same type (Devils, Demons, etc) have similar resistances and immunities. 

You might try to search for a resource like this online. People are always creating spreadsheets etc of various things. Maybe someone will have created one for resistances and immunities.

The main idea was to search through the Koboldpress stuff, for official conent there are other pages....

Ok, I took a look and yes, there may be a method for at least some of this. 

1) Go to the external Compendium, click on Dungeons and Dragons.
2) Scroll to the Kobold Press resources. Click on the book you want. 
3) Click on "Monsters by Type", this will bring up a search tool. 
4) Click on "New Filter", find the type of action you want. 

I have not played with this in detail so there may be difficulties I am not foreseeing, but it may give you what you need. 

Edit: I played with it and it appears to not be functional, ahh well.
