>>5053Consider the following scenario:
>50 orcs simultaneously pass by an angry dragon. How many orcs can the dragon massacre one by one in the few seconds a round represents? 50?
Or imagine the battle of Thermopylae:
1 angry Spartan hoplite blocks the narrow passage while 300K Persians try to zerg rush him. He stabs each of them with his spear as opportunity attack. Thus the Persian invasion of Greece ends.
Really now?
I think just like a creature normally only has 1 action per turn it should indeed only have 1 reaction. It can't react 50 times because there isn't enough time in a round for it to do so.
So yeah I think the 5e wording makes sense. I'm open for compromise but unlimited reactions are insane.
