[QUOTE="mips42, post: 6327716, member: 6746242"] I don't currently remember if Fey step was an encounter power or not, so my honest answer is "maybe". [B]EDIT:[/B] in 4e Fey Step IS an encounter power. RAW state that: "You can use encounter powers many times during a day of adventuring, but you must rest a few minutes between each use, so you can use them once per encounter". Also "A short rest allows you to renew your encounter powers and spend healing surges". Also also "If you use and encounter power (such as healing) during a short rest, you need another short rest to renew it so you can use it again". So, THIS is where the idea of "spamming" short rests comes from. Didn't allow it in 4e, wouldn't in 5e. Also also also, The definition of a short rest has changed in 5e so that affects how often "Encounter Powers" can be used. If there were "Fey Step" in 5e (AND it didn't state otherwise), I would default to same interpretation. Use in combat, short or long rest, use again. However, we were discussing Second Wind and how it *could* be interpreted. I gave you my way, yours appears to be different and that's okay. If I play in your game and you say all the things that I would prevent are okay, then that's your game and I'll either play that way or not play. Your game, your rules. I would just ask that, if you play in my game, you give me the same courtesies and play the rules as *I* do. [/QUOTE]
