[QUOTE="mellored, post: 7343568, member: 6801209"] "Roll a bunch of HD to heal yourself, and recharge some features" is still doing something. About the same as "cast cure wounds on yourself." Definatly more active than just rolling a death save. Most of the time it's still done between combats. With one used early, and the other held onto in case of emergency. But feel free to experiment. I've gone back and forth on letting people move, dodge, or disengage that turn. I might go back to dodge, possibly standing up. I'm often tempted to hit a prone, low HP PC that is giving me advantage. For a more gritter style, you don't need to allow it when unconscious. Though I've found people generally like having an emergency self-heal, as it lets them take more risks and pull off some heroic moves every now and then. And when your really dead, your can't complain it was just because you rolled a 1 on your death save, or that you where the cleric. IMO, simply slowing down the rest rates work fine. Long rests are a week in town, vs camping for a night. Let me know which one works for you. [/QUOTE]
