[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7627263, member: 6716779"] You can convert a lot of stuff from 4E to 5E as is the big rewrites are classes and monsters. For example at will action granting is a bad idea if you rewrite the rogue and some other classes that problem goes away. All the 4E fiddly bits like plus one or whatever goes away and becomes a d4 or advantage/disadvantage. Healing surges become second wind a'la the fighter ability, difference is everyone gets them. Less math as well no 25% just hit dice plus level. Most of the 5E damage dealing spells are also fine. They become your failed, the 5E cantrips can be used as is perhaps dropping the scaling part as if you keep that part you'll need to go with 5E damage on the warrior/striker types. Encounter powers are now short rest which take 1 or 5 minutes. Or word them like Xanathars. Action surge could carry over as is along with grant action surge. To convert a 4E power look at what it did and convert it. As long as it's doing something similar conceptually it doesn't matter if it's slightly different like a 4E fireball or the 8d6 5E version.
