[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9007267, member: 93670"] Yea that's the difference between the old 2e style & 5e. When the GM said [I]"You guys were hoping to rest for ... six hours was it?... the first [dice clatter] 2 went ok, but pretty quick the watch that Alice & bob were taking saw clear that the locals caught your scent & it's not safe to push for more"[/I] was just a quick turnaround with [I]"cool so that gives Cindy/Dave that gives you a good chunk of spells back right? like 12 levels worth? Cindy can you use some of that twelve levels worth of spells* healing Alice?". [/I] Even in 3.x where you needed "a good night's sleep" plus one hour of studying (or mostly similar from class to class/prc) to get spells back & a [URL='https://dnd.arkalseif.info/feats/complete-warrior--61/faster-healing--1084/index.html']level based number of HP per day[/URL] it wasn't as bad interrupting one because consumables like wands & scrolls were the norm for various unrelated reasons & allowed for scraping along when low at some cost.
