Notes

• As of Patch 5, you must not be silenced to be able to use this action.
• This ability will refresh when using the Restoration Pod in the Mindflayer 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 hitpoints 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.

Bugs

• An exploitable bug presently exists wherein this ability incorrectly recharges whenever the party fast travels to a different region (ie the dialog box for confirming travel to a different region appears), allowing unlimited short rests. Most recent test Patch 6, Hotfix 25.
