And we're changing things that we're maybe going to get rid of some things in 2020, 2014 rules that would remove the ability to use your reaction. Because otherwise, you'd nerf. What's the cantrip that removes your reactions? Oh, well, that's somebody I know. Yeah, I know.

Right. So, you know, the idea was, well, we'll remove that. So you don't just shock and grasp the big bad constantly to just remove all of their legendary actions. Right. Well, in the end, they went away from this, right? But this early example is fascinating because we get to see the idea of like you can take three reactions per round, but only once per turn. And so you could do that.

And so you could do that.
What's interesting is you could do this either on your turn because it's a reaction or you could do it off turn like you could with a normal legendary, but only one. You had to space them out. So it's almost like the same thing, but a different part of the action sequence. language, and so it had its own considerations to it. In the end, they abandoned this, and that's fascinating.

That's exactly what we see here, right? Charming presence is when you end your turn. Corrosive miasma is either when you use your legendary resistance or if you are hit with a ranged attack and so then you do this thing. But yeah, if people are just attacking you melee, they get to shut down corrosive miasma from ever triggering. So yeah, it's interesting, right?

now you have to really be paying attention to this section right it's one thing to say that hey i need to remind myself when a player ends their turn i may want to do one of these things cross off my list it's another to say i need to watch out for every time someone uses a ranged attack or makes me make a save and i choose to you know like that's that's even more complicated thing so i'm glad they moved away from this but it is surprising to me because how you're designing your monsters is important

Right. And that is also indicative of a team that's a little bit scrambling, at least in this regard. Right. And maybe not. Maybe, maybe team members would say to me, you know, we just made this one decision. Teos, don't make a big deal out of it. And that's possible. But to me, this is a fairly big thing to still be working through and maybe why monsters came at the end and in 2025. Right.
