Message: <blockquote data-quote="Stalker0" data-source="post: 6071861" data-attributes="member: 5889">This is a house rule my group has been using in our 4e game, and I think it would be worth seeing it tried as as one of the healing module's 5e uses.In our game, whenever we do an extended rest, if we are resting "on-site" we only recover 1 healing surge. Only when we return to our base, and get some full and comfortable rest, do we recover all of our surges.So a version of this for 5e, with resources included, might look like this:Location RestA location rest is a long rest (8 hours) that is taken in an non-ideal location. Such rests might be outdoors, or in areas with potential dangers (like dungeons).A character that takes a location rest gets the following:1) 1/2 of their daily resources (spells, class abilities).2) 1/2 their normal hit dice (minimum 1).3) Heal 1/2 their current hp damage.Extended RestAn extended rest is a long rest (8 hours) taken in an area of safety and comfort where characters can get full, uninterrupted rest. These would be places like inns and home bases. A character that takes an extended rest recovers all hitpoints, hitdice, and daily abilities.Now the amount of healing of location rests would obviously be a subject for debate, but with this model players can still get teh quick recover when absolutely needed, but it would have a time factor that many DMs are looking for (reduction of the 15 minute adventure notion). The downside would be for classes that rely on daily abilities like casters.Thoughts?</blockquote>
