Never said it did stop the 5MWD. Maybe you should reread my post?

For number 1 it'd still follow the no temp hp can stack rule, so instead of casting cure wounds 3 times, you'd have to upcast it. This certain makes lower spell slots less appealing for the use of healing. I kinda like the idea of it as flavour because I imagine a cleric before a medieval...

^ This guy gets it.

No, you require PC'S to use healer's kits. The difference is that it can be any player, it doesn't have to be the cleric.

Correct.

Nice i like it. One of the things I liked about dungeonworld was the good old mundane healers kit that could expend a use to gain healing. The caveat was it took a minute to administer. I think combining some level of hp healing and wound healing like you've mentioned is my level of happy.

I think there'd be a few ways to do that, most simple of all is house rule that if someone drops to 0 they don't regain consciousness for 10 minutes or so. In my experience however I've never really experienced the yoyo healing much, so it doesn't much concern me.

...snip... Yeah one of the difficulties of changing anything in d&d is how intertwined many little sub rules are. Temp HP is definitely on of them. Why most of these things stay as a thought pastime for me is that once you tap into something so interlinked, you may as well write the system up...

Well if you do, let me know how it goes! I haven't run 5e game for a long time, but I have a tonne of ideas I'd like to test out sitting in the back of my brain.

Your experience is valid, but you've missed two points about this post. 1) your experience is not necessarily everyone else's, and 2) this thread is not about making a fix to d&d, necessary or otherwise.

That's right. And I'm in campaigns who cleric who play them as well. Everyone's different!

Thanks all for your comments. I like to ponder these "what-ifs" from time to time.

What would happen if all magical healing and healing potions did not increase hitpoints, but only created temp HP? I can think of a few impacts: Clerics, Paladins and Druids might think of using spells to buff characters before they go into a fight If a character is downed, magical healing...

That's a good question, and actually related to the original post (can we take the other conversation off thread please?) What do you think? I wonder if they'd go a "safe" elf, dwarf, human etc. Might be a more interesting take for them to put the unusual races like you said. Maybe, tiefling...

I'd take a totally unsubstantiated guess at: Michelle - fighter brawler Rege - suave rogue Chris - pious cleric Justice - enigmatic wizard

I'd make it a level 1 reaction spell like hellish rebuke myself

I'd be happy with recasting the plot of Baldur's gate 1.

Fair enough. But credit cards are also an option as mentioned above.

Usually you can put down $1 and pick it up in the pledge manager, or late pledge

That's it. I think running a project for any operation must be hugely time consuming with timely updates, responses to backers and keeping the hype up. Why not try 2 weeks out and see if those mid range orders will get picked up in late pledges anyway? Either way they probably save a lot of...
