[QUOTE="Ander00, post: 4281947, member: 19041"] The healing surges themselves are not magical in nature, but magical effects may allow you to access them more efficiently or more frequently. To speed your recovery or improve it, beyond just catching a 'second wind', if you will. But even with magical help, one can only go so far before needing to take an extended rest. The tougher a character is, the more healing surges he has, the more those surges accomplish, and the more often he can catch a second wind, let the warlord inspire him to keep on fighting or benefit from a cleric's healing spells (though there are some that do not require the recipient to expend a healing surge, but those - like the daily [I]Cure Light Wounds[/I] - are the exception). Once the character is out of healing surges for the day, he resembles the McLane you saw at the end of those movies. Bruised and battered. Probably with some fight left in him, if need be, but in more serious risk of dying because he is now too exhausted to catch a 'second wind' and get back into the fight if things do not go exactly his way. Another few good hits, and this time he won't be getting up. cheers [/QUOTE]
