[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9447532, member: 7006"] Most isolated specific rules for class features or spells and such I will worry about only when they come up-- no need for me to pre-emptively make rulings when I have not idea yet how the new versions will work in play. My own personal house rules are ones that I used in 5E14 and have no reason not to probably use them again. They are: - Skills are not designated for specific ability scores. I will assign ability checks and then proficient skills can apply when needed. - Short rests are 10 minutes. - Will possibly still use my amended Exhaustion chart rather than the 5E24 one. May or may not decide to continue using the Exhaustion chart at 0 HP rather than the 3 Death Saves. Will want to read the rules fully first and see how many other things are now connected to both the 3 Death Saves and/or Exhaustion rules and whether it becomes more trouble than its worth to house rule it. - Will run Stealth, Perception, and Investigation as I usually do, regardless of what the book ends up saying. Will probably not use the various skill-based "Actions" as designated by the books either, I'll most likely just call for checks as I see fit. Those rules I'm sure are useful for new DMs who might not have learned yet when to call for checks, but I've run enough games to be comfortable making my own calls. [/QUOTE]
