[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7465722, member: 6801845"] The list of enemies that would double tap in my world (especially at lower levels) is pretty small. Some animals may do it just because their prey is still twitching, but that's another story and very dependent on how risky the group wants combat to be which is something we discuss in our session 0. The monsters/NPCs that are going to double tap [I]is[/I] going to skew to higher level threats, and situations where the party's reputation precedes them. For example, in a recent campaign, the adventurers were part of a strike force. After a while there were wanted posters and a bounty on their head, along with information on tactics, etc. So even those low level hobgoblins trying to get that big score knew to double tap. But yeah, magic is pretty ubiquitous in my world. It's just not usually the insta-heal options that PCs have. Which is a really long, really drawn out way of saying that it's all campaign dependent. I always thought of FR as being high enough magic that the moment someone sees a spell-caster invoking a deity in the party they're going to assume the cleric can heal. That won't be true in all campaigns and may not be true in modules. [/QUOTE]
