[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 7297751, member: 1465"] Yes but that's what I was trying to say after all... that the rukes may be quite equivalent but the fact that most characters don't have at-will abilities using bonus actions makes most people play without thinking too much about the action economy, unless they actually want to. Again, I don't know 4e, maybe everyone had many minor action abilities or maybe not. In 3e however it was easy to get into the mindset of having to combine actions to fully utilise your round worth, and if you didn't then you started to feel like you were losing something. I never had the same feeling in 5e, because those bonus actions really feel like an occasional bonus. It's certainly different for the Rogue's Cunning Action. In that case the idea was to really encourage the player towards a more mobile combat all the time. IMHO you are indeed supposed to look around for opportunities to use that extra movement in interesting ways. [/QUOTE]
