Only one short rest per long rest, isn't that a little restrictive? I've seen suggestions of each sleep being a short rest, and every few days or week you have a day or so off for a long rest.
What changes did you make to the duration of long-running spells like Mage Armour?
It is a way to fix the one fight a day, and then take a long rest problem I was having with 5e. I didn't do anything to change spells; the party needed to ration resources. They would last through a dungeon, but not the entire day.
Yeah I'm keen to fix one fight a day too, but I'd like to give the players the freedom to take more short rests if they want.
I think there needs to be some tweaking of durations though, for instance if you only get a few spell slots per week then you're not going to spend one to get mage armour for 8 hours if you're going to need it every day, right?
