First, short rests take 5 minutes, and you get 2 of them per long rest. This is to keep short and long rest classes on a level playing field, which has emerged as a problem in my games. Second, during a long rest you can only regain hit points by spending hit dice. Hit dice are regained every long rest at a rate equal to your proficiency bonus. This is to slightly slow the rate of healing, mostly as a pacing mechanism. I want to keep fights cinematic, but I also want players to feel it when they get caught in a series of back-to-back encounters. That's a tricky balance.</blockquote>
