New monster armor rules?

In the latest download it looks like monster armor was changed to -10/-20. That seems really high to me. My group has been going with the -5/-10 which has been working great, although they are only level 5 so far.

Sheet Goblin Now Supports Nimble 3.0 Core Rules and Core Classes

https://preview.redd.it/mvt6zjbipkth1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=79066f7e85a51e79e1fea7386bf404c1eb8cda5c

Sheet Goblin now builds and prints with the latest Nimble rules: Core Rules 3.0 and the 3.0 edition of all eleven core classes.

  • The latest rules, recently updated for those that backed the kickstarter or has access to the digital rules updates: Core rules, gear, spells, conditions and boons follow Core Rules 3.0, and every core class follows its 3.0 book. For what changed in the rules themselves, read the author's full changelog.
  • Your heroes come along. Characters you already built open on the new rules, and a "Rules updated" note on the sheet tells you so. Open Edit, check your picks and save, and the note goes away.
  • Changed picks are flagged, not lost. If an ability you picked was removed or reworked in 3.0, the builder names it and asks you to pick a replacement. If your class now gives fewer picks at your level, your sheet keeps printing them all until you trim to the new count in the builder.
  • New class engines on page 1. Your core card shows each class's 3.0 engine, like the Zephyr's Momentum, which gets a blank to pencil in since it has no maximum. The Stormshifter's Direbeast charges show "Recharges each encounter".
  • Know which rules you're on. Each class card in the builder shows its release version and when Sheet Goblin last updated it, like "Release version 3.0 (last updated: Oct 4, 2026)".

Read about Sheet Goblin updates, a lot has been updated the past few weeks. https://sheetgoblin.com/whats-new/nimble#2026-10-04-nimble-3-0-is-here-new-core-rules-and-every-core-class

You can try it without an account, but here is an Invite Link if you'd like an account.

I originally built this for my players, and now for the Nimble community, so it's entirely free to use. If you run a campaign as well, DM me and I can promote your account to Organizer, giving you some additional homebrew and campaign sharing options, like secret spell reveals for a specific player, or entire group.

Reactions during PCs turn

CRs specifically say Reactions are generally performed when it is not your turn.

Abilities like the Songweaver’s Inspiration is a free Reaction. I’m assuming this is an example of a Reaction that can be used during the Action phase of combat, ie on the Player’s turn for things like rerolling an ally’s missed attack?
