[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9060589, member: 7006"] You're right, I am almost always unconcerned with how or when the party rests, because if I want to interrupt them or stop them from getting them as a plot device within the story of the campaign... it's going to happen regardless of what the rules say is "normal". I'll just do it as the next narrative beat and roadblock the party has to deal with and overcome. But since 5E14 had short rests and long rests (both at various lengths if any DM was actually willing to use the Variant Rules in the DMG which specifically lays out you are allowed to), there's no reason to change things away from that in 5E24. Why mess with any potential compatibility concerns for no good reason? And if a particular DM wants to eliminate one of them from their game (shorts rest or long rests)... they are more than able and wiling to do so. They just might have to spend an hour outside of the game designing rules themselves on how they want to do it. [/QUOTE]
