You're not seeing the problem because you haven't yet realized the party has become invincible if they all sport Healing Words. No matter what the monsters do (unless they can catch all PCs in a Fireball when they are all softened up), the PCs refuse to stay down, and few PCs ever lose their action.And who's talking about Disengaging? You fall, you rise, you stand up and hit the monsters. The fact you are at 1 hp is utterly inconsequential. Maximum offense is the name of the game.Yes, all of this is a tad extreme. But I did it to make y'all see the light. I fully understand you can't see my dilemma until you see the consequences of the 5E rules from my perspective. But be warned, once you do, you can't turn back... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
