The technique, the brain muscle, the memory of how it feels - it's all still there, I'm just a little too winded to pull it off at the moment. Similarly, cleaving through weakened foes into their allies, and breaking a foe's weapon effectively, are techniques I have mastered a long time ago and am not like to forget anytime soon. I just so happen to not have the strength RIGHT NOW to pull it off just right, until that thrice-damned Cleric finally gets his wrinkly behind over here to fix me.Does that mean I forget how to sneak attack, or lose my bond with my fiendish companion, or suddenly lose access to all the spells the dark powers-that-be have granted me for the day? Do I suddenly risk poisoning myself when I wipe down my sword with Wyvern venom?I think not. That's not 'inconvenient', as you claim, that's ridiculous.Also, your rules text quotations aren't the only ones in this thread, and you haven't shown conclusively how your reading is superior to that of others. I prefer to assume that stuff works on a sane basis.</blockquote>
