[QUOTE="guachi, post: 7018448, member: 6785802"] The tweet only says that a long rest can be a mix of sleep and light activity. Rya.Reisender says that a long rest can be a mix of sleep and light activity. The section on long rests is confusing English where it isn't clear what the "no more than 2 hours" refers to. Is it just "standing watch" or the entire series of activities listed? It's probably the latter as it could otherwise be rewritten to "sleeps or performs no more than 2 hours of light activity" Though you could also rewrite it if you only wanted the stipulation to cover standing watch to "reading, talking, eating, or no more than 2 hour of standing watch." Personally, I'd say that a long rest must include actual rest and 8 hours of light activity wouldn't cut it. It doesn't mean outright sleeping but you'd need to be inactive and off your feet for at least 6 of those 8 hours to get a long rest. Look at what you get for a long rest - all your hp, a bunch of hp, spells, class features. That's a lot. So actual inactivity/sleep is necessary in my game. [/QUOTE]
