[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7870642, member: 6895991"] I use short rest a day and long rest a weekend. Sometimes for practical reasons I allow a "5 minute short rest" if e.g. it is clear the party has exhausted their resources and the normal action would be to withdraw and take a short rest in a safe place (if possible) then I handwave things, unless I got a special case making resource management one of the main challenges in the particular session, e.g. party is chasing / chased. I never though much about those "rely on short rest class" gimmicks, because I do not have players playing that classes. Ok I have a pally in my group but since the frequency of combats is much lower than the 8/day recommended (although much harder sometimes) I do not see the need to alter my base rule. But OP is right, kudos for thinking about this topic which I was unaware of. I think if I wanted to have both, I either would change rest duration to standard or (less preferable in this case imho) alter spell durations accordingly. [/QUOTE]
