[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9512291, member: 18"] For any remotely typical group it inarguably slows things down. You may enjoy the benefits enough to ignore that (more chaos, as you say, which can be fun, albeit typically less tactical and more reactionary), but it is obviously a bit silly to pretend it doesn't. I can imagine a group where it it sped things up, but that would be a very distracted group who would be best served by mutually agreeing to either put their phones away or cut down on the table talk I suspect! And I'm kind of doubting your group has that bad of a problem. This is pretty funny. I do you enjoy that you believe this. It definitely isn't actually true because 5E is too swingy to predict on the level of granularity you're describing, and it would require entirely static and repeatably tactics from both the DM and players, but given you think this is true, it explains the rest of what you're saying.
