Message: <blockquote data-quote="dmnqwk" data-source="post: 6782961" data-attributes="member: 6804204">Perhaps you should remove the ability to "stabilize" someone.If a player is reduced to 0 hp the following occurs:A) A successful Medicine check (DC10) provides a successful saving throw, instead of automatically stabilizing someone.B) Curative magic cannot assist in the stabilization of a player.C) A player reduced to 0hp is incapable of regaining consciousness for 1d4 hours (remove the Natural 20 = 1 hp rule from death saving throws)What this means is if a player is reduced to 0, then fails her first 2 death saving throws... she is still left with a 50/50 shot of death unless multiple players attempt to save her life. It would require 3 players succeeding at Medicine checks in a single round to guarantee her safety. It would also penalize people who think "oh we're got 3 rounds before we have to bother helping." It also means once a player goes down, they're down for the rest of the fight (and possibly the following actions).It might stop people thinking it's okay to let someone go down before they get a healing spell or potion.</blockquote>
