[QUOTE="Giryan, post: 4366165, member: 1915"] Huh? Did you just not read the rest of my sentence? It only takes the player who is healing a very small amount of extra time, he has no need to involve me, as I can trust him to roll a d6 without watching, it expends no resource of the cleric, so he doesn't need to take any time. While the character who is healing is rolling their d6 and adding it(I'd guess about 5seconds?) I'm probably still totting up the XP of monsters, and working out gold, let alone finding the page for the next area that they might decide to go to. In case my paragraph just above is still not clear enough I'll give you a little example. (My Party using surges) DM: Right that's it, the monster slumps to the ground, the encounter's over. A: Cool, I'm a little hurt so, I'm using a healing surge B: I go and pick up my knives, and search that corpse. C: I'm using 2 surges. DM: (having been adding up/dividing etc), Right you each get 125XP A: Actually I'm using another surge I didn't get much on my roll. DM: Sure, btw there's 122GP, 10 silver, and a slightly odd looking dagger (My Party if they didn't need to use surges) DM: Right that's it, the monster slumps to the ground, the encounter's over. A: Cool B: I go and pick up my knives, and search that corpse. *pause* DM: (having been adding up/dividing etc), Right you each get 125XP *pause* DM: (having been adding up etc...)Right, there's 122GP, 10 silver, and a slightly odd looking dagger That's how it actually doesn't take up any more RL time to use surges [/QUOTE]
