[QUOTE="Volund, post: 7357590, member: 6872597"] The only limiter is the opportunity to cast it. The thief is trying to disarm a trap? My cleric gives them a pat on the shoulder and asks for divine guidance to help them succeed (and then backs up 30 feet because the gods are fickle). My cleric is trying to break a grapple? The athletics check and guidance cantrip both require an action so he can't guidance his own athletics check. Whether running or playing, one of my core beliefs is that a main reason people play D&D is for the opportunity to be awesome. They pick a race and class in order to be awesome in a particular way. Let them be awesome. The cool thing about Guidance is that it is a buff, like Bardic Inspiration, that one player can give to another player to help them succeed. When players are helping each other be more awesome, everyone walks away from the session feeling good and whether you are a DM or player you want to encourage that. [/QUOTE]
