Why did my D&D Beyond dice stop rolling?

The most common causes are an ad blocker or privacy extension blocking the 3D dice scripts, a stale cache after a site update, digital dice being toggled off in the sheet settings, or an outage on D&D Beyond's side. Testing in an incognito window with extensions disabled identifies the extension case in under a minute.

How do I turn digital dice back on in D&D Beyond?

Open your character sheet, click the gear or settings icon, and check that the Digital Dice option is enabled. On the mobile app the same toggle lives in the character sheet settings.

How do I know if D&D Beyond itself is down?

Check whether other parts of the site load, then look at the D&D Beyond subreddit or their social accounts; widespread outages get reported within minutes. If it's an outage, no browser fix will help until it passes.

What can my table use while the D&D Beyond dice are broken?

Keep the D&D Beyond sheet open for stats and roll somewhere else: physical dice, a Discord dice bot, or a free browser-based shared roller like DiceDND, where one room link shows every player's rolls live without any accounts.

D&D Beyond dice roller not working? Fixes and stopgaps

Quick answer: when D&D Beyond dice stop showing up, it's almost always one of four things: an ad blocker or privacy extension eating the dice scripts, a stale cache, digital dice toggled off in the sheet settings, or an outage on their side. The incognito test below sorts out which in under a minute.

Fix 1: the incognito test (finds the cause fastest)

Open an incognito or private window with extensions disabled, log in, and try to roll. Two outcomes:

Dice work in incognito: an extension or your cache is the culprit. Go to Fix 2 and 3.
Dice still broken: it's the dice setting (Fix 4), your browser (Fix 5), or D&D Beyond itself (Fix 6).

Fix 2: whitelist D&D Beyond in your ad blocker

The 3D dice load as separate scripts, and blockers regularly flag them. Add dndbeyond.com to your ad blocker's allowlist (uBlock: click the shield, hit the big power button for the site). Privacy tools like Ghostery, Brave Shields, and Safari's tracker prevention can do the same thing, so if you run one, allow the site there too.

Fix 3: hard refresh and clear site cache

After a D&D Beyond update, an old cached script can break the roller. Hard refresh with Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac). If that's not enough, clear cookies and cache for dndbeyond.com only, then log back in.

Fix 4: check the digital dice toggle

On the character sheet, open the settings (gear icon) and make sure Digital Dice is enabled. It gets switched off by accident more often than you'd think, especially on the mobile app, where the toggle lives in the same sheet settings.

Fix 5: try another browser, and update the app

If you're on Safari, test in Chrome or Firefox; Safari's Intelligent Tracking Prevention has broken the dice before. On mobile, force-close the app, install any pending update, and if the dice are still gone, delete and reinstall. The white screen and broken image icon reported by app users usually clears with a reinstall.

Fix 6: it might be D&D Beyond, not you

Outages happen, and the dice service can break while the rest of the site looks fine. Check the D&D Beyond subreddit or their social accounts; when it's widespread, reports appear within minutes. No browser fix helps here, you just need a stopgap until it passes.

Stopgaps: keep the session moving

Broken dice shouldn't end game night. Keep the D&D Beyond sheet open for stats and roll elsewhere:

Stopgap	Good when
Physical dice	Everyone is at the same table
Discord dice bot (e.g. Avrae)	Your table already runs on Discord
DiceDND shared room	Remote or hybrid table that wants every roll visible to everyone, live, with no accounts

With DiceDND, one player opens a room, shares the link, and every roll shows up for the whole table in the browser. It's free with no signup, so it works as a 30-second stopgap mid-session, and some groups keep using it next to the D&D Beyond sheet afterward.
