[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 3754411, member: 18280"] The party is sneaking past a number of guards, not all of whom can see each other because of the darkness. However, all the figures are on the board, and the party is aware of all of them. One of the guards is in a location where the wizard decides he can [i]magic missile[/i] him without the other guards being aware. He does so, then rests a minute while the other party members try to determine how to deal with the remainder of the encounter. If the ability requires 1 minute of rest, it is reset. If it is per encounter, it is not. The PCs are still dealing with the [i]encounter[/i] (defined as X number of guards) but the wizard PC has rested 1 minute. A "rest & reset" time makes sense within this context, where "per encounter" doesn't. ALTERNATE: In a 36 round battle, the cleric is sorely wounded. He crawls into a tiny area, while the battle rages around him, and waits 1 minute for his healing to reset. [i]Or does he?[/i] RC [/QUOTE]
