Message: <blockquote data-quote="phantomK9" data-source="post: 6639185" data-attributes="member: 6790724">I will be starting a 5e game this weekend and in preparation I asked my players if there were any rules that thought needed changing (as we are all playing under a different DM).One of my players offered that he didn't like the concentration rules for spells and suggested a rule that he found on the internet that allowed for a set number of free additional concentration spells. I quickly chose not to go with that because it just seemed too lenient on allowing multiple concentration spells at a time.However, I came up with an alternative where a caster could choose to have multiple concentration spells going at one time, but they automatically take a level of exhaustion at the end of the round for each spell they are concentrating on past the first.This then sent me down a bit of a wormhole. Why are there so few rules dealing with Exhaustion?Does anyone else have any similar rules that add Exhaustion effects?Are there more things that can be done with Exhaustion?I've thought of a few things like allowing players to take extra actions for automatic exhaustion levels, but I was wondering if anyone else had done this mental gymnastics already.</blockquote>
