[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 8066819, member: 50987"] This argument is as old as D&D. "How does my wizard forget something so quickly? I still have all the components, and I just cast that spell ten seconds ago!" I don't want to get too far into the weeds here with this idea (and again, it's just an idea), but the short and succinct answer is: Whatever means is used to manage this resource, whether it is a martial ability or spellcasting ability or whatever, will have to be supported by the narrative. This will not be a small task, because as you point out, a lot of people are going to stumble over how a fighter can only do something X times per day. Just like people have been stumbling over how a wizard can only do something X times per day, or a monk can only do something X times per day, etc. I don't know what that narrative would look like; I'm not a game designer or professional writer. But I'm confident that if we can do it for the wizard, we can do it here as well. [/QUOTE]
