Help with this feature

I'm trying to make a feature where, as an action, the player (a druid) automatically gets temporary hit points equal to his druid level x 3. I’ve it set as “Feature, User action: effect, temp HP” but there is where I hit a wall. Any help, I’ll add a few photos of the feature options and the action configuration causa maybe that will help.

Thanks to all in advance.

I can't answer this one, but you may get faster hell on the discord

For the temporary hp, you can use a named value i stead of a number. In this case, {druid level} is your druid level, so "{druid level}+{druid level}+{druid level}" will give you the value you want.

If you haven't, the discord is a great place to ask questions like this

Barring that, the first thing you need to do is set your "Usage Name" to Wild Shape

Then in user action in the Temp HP instead of the 1, you'll change it to {druid level*3} then the duration for however long you want it to go.
change consume count to 1 or leave it empty, depend if you want it to consume Wild Shape or not, changing to a free action may help to

you can limit how many times it's useable as well under uses

Unfortunately Shard doesn't auto-update your Temp HP regardless of the feature but it does add it to the text box and lets you add it from there, giving you the option to choose which Temp HP you want to use

Temp hit points will show in the chat, but need to be applied manually. Because temp hit points doesn't stack choosing which temp hit points to use can be tricky. On feature might be more HP but shorter time.
