Classes:
  • Class level 2: Bard

Notes

  • This action can only be used in situations when it is possible to use a normal short rest. In particular, it is not available if any party member is engaged in combat.
  • This ability refreshes when using the Restoration Pod in the Mind Flayer Colony, unlike "normal" short rests which do not refresh.
  • This ability is quite different from the tabletop version. That version instead lets bards help themselves and their allies to regain more hit points during short rests, increasing the amount by between 1d6 and 1d12, depending on the bard's level, as long as any amount of Hit Dice are spent.
  • As of Patch 5, silenced characters cannot use this action.

Bugs

  • This action incorrectly recharges whenever the party fast travel to a different region (i.e. whenever the dialog box for confirming travel to a different region appears), allowing for unlimited short rests.
