    I'm not sure of the ratio to those that want to push that reset and those that dont. Agreed that it is a problem for some styles.

    Didn't say that, just said like going to work again the next day. Conditions and "lingering damage/wounds" (if they were in game) would be a different matter.

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    The first thing the players would ask is why? Why does my character have variable power? (I am sure from my posts that it is obvious we lean towards verisimilitude slightly.)

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    Here's my bottom line: (Good) Most of the time the players have encounters that lead up to the boss. Having gone through the attrition, the boss is usually a hard/satisfying fight. (Good) They may cleverly discover a route* to bypass many of the encounters, and kick the bosses butt. (Good)...

    Or long rests are recuperating from a long work day and waking up "refreshed" the next day.

    D&D 5E (2024) Does Innate Sorcery grant True Strike advantage?
