[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 8498961, member: 1465"] The opposite is also true, the long rest classes set the pace for long rests as much as the short rest classes set the pace for short rest. However IMXP these are problems only when players get hung up too much on resource efficiency. It is a problem with the chosen playstyle rather than with the rules of the game. Because I run a variety of differently paced adventures, my players don't know in advance and tend to become slightly conservative when using limited resources. But I also don't even PLAN or force a specific pace, it just comes up on its own. I think that if the DM plans too much or tries to exert too much control, it strangles the game and the game strikes back. Similarly, if the players metagame too much with efficiency given too much value over other aspects of the game, it's only going to make less satisfied and feeling that more house rules are required.
