Since monsters are not likely to ever see another encounter (let alone another day,) it makes their more iconic abilities of those monsters homogenized. Per encounter and per day become the same thing, in effect. You don't want your Ancient Red Dragon to only be able to breath fire once in the encounter, but you sure as HELL don't want him doing it ever round, so NPC monsters get recharge. From my understanding, this means that at a certain point in the round, the DM rolls a 6 sider for the monster if it has abilities on recharge, for the ability on the pit fiend, if the result is a 4, 5 or 6, the ability is recharged and ready to use again. If not, it is still expended. There are also abilities that are just plain old "Recharge 6," which will be reserved for the nastier ones, I am sure.<BR/><BR/>This is what I have heard, but I have not seen an official ruling on it yet.moJoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14654950192295078158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542288088513943439.post-10634302864889506872008-01-31T19:16:00.000-07:002008-01-31T19:16:00.000-07:00"Slide"?Is this 4th Edition D&D, or 2nd Edition Mi..."Slide"?<BR/><BR/>Is this 4th Edition D&D, or 2nd Edition Miniatures?Griffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05854226755305203275noreply@blogger.com
