Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mustrum_Ridcully" data-source="post: 5970269" data-attributes="member: 710">Healing Surges did also fix another problem I had with hit points and healing (spells).Why does "Cure Light Wounds" heal the serious, life threatening wound of a Low Level Character, but barely fixes a scratch on a High Level Character? That would really imply that a higher character level can somehow deal with even more grivious physical wounds than a low level character. Low Level Characters die when they are hit by an arrow, High Level Characters need 15 arrows stuck in their body? ANd how do they do this? DO they have more meat to stuck arrows into? Harder skin? Faster Regenerative capabilities? Or is it actually the other way and they are still as dead mostly as a low level character by a single arrow, but their hit points represent their ability to avoid getting actually stuck with an arrow in the first place - so an arrow hit simply causes a smaller wound as it was mostly deflected or dodged at the last moment. But then, the Cure spells don't make sense anymore. ----Of course ,that's highly tangential.One thing that occured to me - the real problem of 15 minute adventure days is not really that it's 15 minute long. It is that it benefits one subset of the party and not the other, namely the guys with powerful daily abilities become more powerful than those without powerful daily abilities. And if you don't have the 15 minute adventuring day, the spellcasters may feel weak or unneeded since they don't really have much to contribute if they don't get to blow some spells.</blockquote>
