[QUOTE="Fishbone, post: 5692978, member: 40849"] The healing surge thing is bad when you have a Solo fight and you are new to the system and you aren't really maxed out or anything, and then the guy goes... OH! I GET ALL MY HIT POINTS BACK! You spent 1 hour fighting for no consequence because the players knew to make their healing surges really count, so everybody is at full health and the only thing that happened was everybody blew a bunch of healing surges. That happened a few times with my first times playing 4E about 3 years ago. There was a bulette fight and it was my first really sour experience with the game. It took an iconic, decades-old bad guy and made a 1 hour fight with it a boring, consequence free chore. Sometimes 4E fights felt like that. Formality, we each Healing Surge, seeya next week.
