I guess I didn't make my point very clearly, let me try again.My point was that when you roll a twenty on a hit for your fighter, you will generally (well, I will generally) whoop for joy and begin lording it over the DM at how awesome your luck was.Also, you fighter hits critically. The joy that I feel in these events is due entirely to the magic numbers 2 and 0, and very little with the actual triumph over my foes. In short, it's truly metagame; in video games with critical hits, I don't get the same thrill.It's just seeing those magic numbers together that makes me happy. It's Skinnerian conditioning, really.So, too, are items recharging. A night's rest puts them back to normal, so it's not quite "no matter how much time passes". It's also not "however many fights you get into in a day", because the more fights you get, the more they function; which means it's basically when you're not under stress, they slow down.I really don't have a problem with stressful situations eliciting greater performance. YMMV.After a little while playing with it, it'll just fade into the woodwork -- the player's don't track it anyway, the DM does, and so they will just occasionally be told that they've got a new action point and use of their items.Also... What items do recharge on a milestone? I know you can squeeze an add'l daily power out on a milestone, but I haven't heard of any powers that are explicitly milestone-gated.</blockquote>
