Resting: Difference between revisions

Resting is the primary way the player and their companions can restore lost [[Hit Points]] and uses of their [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]], class abilities, and certain items.

There are two types of resting: Long Rests and Short Rests.

== Long Rest ==

Ends the day and restores all of the following:

* All [[Hit Points]]

* All uses of [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]]

* All class ability uses

* Once-per-long-rest special [[Illithid Power]] dialogue options

Many [[Companions|Companion]] interactions and dialogues will occur when Long Resting. Long rests can also advance certain time-sensitive story elements.

 

 

To begin a Long Rest, use the Waypoint system or the Resting icon to go to the [[Campsite]] and interact with one of the bedrolls around the campfire, the campfire itself, or use the Long Rest button again when inside the Campsite. A long rest requires expending 40 [[Camp Supplies]] (regardless of the number of characters in the party this amount is always 40).

 

 

Alternatively, the player can do a '''Partial Long Rest''', by not expending 40 [[Camp Supplies]].

When performing a partial rest, the Long Rest will instead only do the following:

* Restore [[Hit Points]] up to half of their maximum

* Restore up to half of the character's maximum [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]]

 

Short Rests are not restored when performing a partial rest.

== Short Rest ==

Twice per [[Long Rest]], the party can take a '''Short Rest'''. This heals each party member for an amount of [[Hit Points]] equal to half their maximum (rounded down). Some classes also receive additional benefits from short rests, including but not limited to:

* [[Warlock|Warlocks]] regain their [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]]

* [[Cleric|Clerics]] regain their Channel Divinity charge

* [[Paladin|Paladins]] regain their Channel Oath charge

* [[Fighter|Fighters]] regain the use of their [[Action Surge]] ability

 

In addition, all uses of [[Weapon Actions]] are restored by Short Resting.

The level 2 [[Bard]] ability, [[File:Song of Rest Icon.png|link=Song of Rest|frameless|upright=0.1]] [[Song of Rest]], can grant the party an additional Short Rest.
