[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7402675, member: 6716779"] Hit dice based healing and overnight healing were inspired by 4E IMHO, they are not exactly the same. They are a lot closer to 4E though than 1-3 hp overnight or your level in hp overnight from AD&D and 3E. The healing is a bit closer to Star Wars Saga where you could get 1-3 second winds a day (1 by default another 2 via talents/feats IIRC). Rapid non magical healing did not come from pre 4E conceptually does't really matter on the mechanics of how its done. I've used moonstones as well and they basically duplicated Prayer of Healing in late 3E where I houseruled out the magic item system and went back to AD&D type magic items (using the 3.X items removing the ability to buy and craft them though). A moonstone is a lot nicer looking when you can buy a wand of CLW for 750 gp. Sod all came from 3E IMHO in 5E conceptually domains maybe, everything else is mostly 4E mechanics to duplicate pre 3E playstyle and dumping 3E and 4E class design (more like 2E if anything). You heal faster sure but everything deals double and triple damage. [/QUOTE]
