Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sunseeker" data-source="post: 6370304">I agree.  Unless there is a particular need for something to be vague and be left to DM hands, rules should be rules: concise, specific, hard.  If there is a single rule attempting to cover a large area of the game, I understand that it should be as loose as possible in order to fit a variety of circumstances, however that doesn't mean it needs to be unclear, lengthy or vague.I do understand that 5th is to a large extent trying to be "everyone's game" and that calls for a certain degree of flexibility to the rules.  While flexible rules are certainly possible, being flexible is no excuse for them to be unclear, vague, fiddly or lengthy.  I prefer rules to be rules.  Without them, what am I paying WOTC for if I have to figure it out on my own?</blockquote>
