Climbing a rope is also about determining your skill at doing so, without falling. You either succeed or you fail. If you fail, another attempt may not be possible, and you fall. So it is not a situation where if given all the time in the world, you automatically succeed. Failing to climb a rope often has consequences.See what I did there? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Likewise with a climb. shrugIt depends on the jump. If your STR is 12 and you are trying to jump a 10-foot wide gap over boiling lava, I am going to make you roll a check for it. The distance is well within your movement rules, but the danger involved is such that the consequences of failure can be drastic! Again, this is the stress of the situation. If you made the same jump over a gentle stream and just wanted to avoid getting wet? No, unless you had something on you where the water would damage it severely, etc.</blockquote>
