[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 7932175, member: 93670"] Quit being disingenuous, you know better than to spout this silliness without knowing the answer... This was covered earlier, but you ignored it, presumably because it did not fit your argument. the strength requirement is new to 5e but in 3.5 you handled it like so... [ATTACH type="full"]119038[/ATTACH] In addition to hoping that your party cleric, druid, ad/or paladin had enough first & second level spell slots dedicated to [URL='https://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/restorationLesser.htm']lesser restoration[/URL] to [I]erase[/I] it from everyone in the party who acquired ability damage 1d4 points at a time [B]balanced against[/B] hoping that they do not have their effectiveness in the group held back by wasting too many slots for lesser restoration instead of some other useful spell that the party might need cast. If the ability damage Alice got was not too crippling or risky you continued on because Bob might get worse later & you could always cast it later if it looked like a big fight was coming. Yes seventh level greater restoration could erase all ability damage with one spell from one player, but 7th level slots didn't grow on trees with a thirteenth level cleric casting it [I]once[/I]. in 5e you don't need to reroll because of ability damage, it's not even a thing anymore & creatures like wraith max hp drain that do similar have effects that go away when you avoid risking forced march penalties by sleeping for the night to recover all your spell slots, class abilities & health.
