[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8649118, member: 93670"] [I]How[/I] is it "risky" to nova & then pull back to rest in 5mwd style. The chance of death from anything but extreme suicidal play is almost zero with 5e's rules. If the party goes nova through an encounter & pulls back to rest there is very little risk to them during that rest & short rest nova classes like warlock & monk can ensure that any rest of at least an hour gives them their nova back along with the fighter's action surge & so on to further reduce any chance of a longer rest being "risky". The only time going nova in 5e is a risk is if the party pushes on even after blowing their wad or is going nova without resorting to 5mwd gameplay. Even if encounters stretch out with reinforcements that make pulling back difficult there is still the problem that player characters are tuned to last through as staggering six to eight of them before they start approaching any sort of risk.
