[QUOTE="Emerikol, post: 5985311, member: 6698278"] This attitude is especially annoying. This is perhaps one of the major reasons 4e lost so many players. Not the only one but a major one. Just because you can't tell the difference doesn't mean it does not exist. While the character does not know his hit points he knows his general state of being and that is expressed to the player in hit points. I agree though that monsters and other PCs should not reveal their hit points. In my game they don't. An attack bonus is merely a measure of skill. A plus on a sword is a better sword. Spell resistance is uh spell resistance. Wizards have studied magic and know most of what happens with their spells. While XP is not known, the idea that someone progresses in skill is not. A martial daily is entirely in the mind of the player. There is no reason whatsoever for a daily especially when you have other dailies still available. The slot concept makes no sense for a martial character. I get that you don't get it. It's probably a reason why you can play 4e without being bothered by it. But instead of ridiculing those of us who do get it maybe you could try to understand the distinction. Thousands of players who independently have issues with this are all insane or illogical. I can just about guarantee 5e will fall flat if it ignores these issues. [/QUOTE]
