My friends and I have figured out part of the issue with the current DnD 5e sheet initiative roll issues. People had figured out it was adding Survival and not Dex to the initiative roll, more so my friends and I figured out what the weird formula being used on all the ability checks is: reliable talent.  I'm so glad you guys have added a reliable talent feature to the sheets, but the toggle doesn't work. its permanently on for all checks. In programming this something might have been messed up on initiative.  Thanks!

my friend is trying to figure out the forumla and it doesn't seem like it should work, it seems overcomplicated, yet somehow it works.

This issue is being discussed on  D&D 5th Edition by Roll20 . The formula is indeed messed up. The survival issue has been brought up. Reliable Talent has no business in an initiative roll.

Hello! The previous initiative and roll template formatting issues  have been hotfixed , and should be working as expected. However, we're aware of some additional concerns with incorrect roll templates and 'reliable talent' specifically as being a potential cause. We're currently investigating this to determine what updates need to happen. However, to keep things consolidated, we would ask that you please refer to the  main D&D 5e Thread for further communications and updates . As such, we're going to have to close this post. Thank you the report and your patience.
