[QUOTE="Laurefindel, post: 7442953, member: 67296"] How would this interact with healing spells? Also, do you still keep the same rate of exhaustion recovery (one level per long rest)? It also make characters with high CON and proficiency with CON saves nearly unkillable against opponents dealing low damage, on top of their high amount of hp due to high CON. Assuming they make their save, one healing word and they’re up again without penalties, which does not remove the whack-a-mole syndrome of 5e. Personally, I’m not against a system of death spiral, or using exhaustion to mimicking the otherwise missing injury element of fighting. Your proposition allows for someone to be dying yet conscious, which is cool and cinematic, but if that person is not taking any action, it’s state cannot deteriorate, so no last words on your dying breath either. Like other posters above, I’m wondering what is the goal of that rule and what is the perceived issue with RAW before I can’t comment further. [/QUOTE]
