Standing Just Got Easier (Outside of Combat)

UPDATE: GM Nyxus announced that the stance penalty for standing was removed from non-combat situations. It should reduce any roundtime as well as the likelihood of “failing to stand”. A review of this took place after a player discussion on Discord.

Attempting to stand will no longer incur a stance penalty if the player is outside of combat. The penalty will still apply during combat.

This change should reduce RT to stand, as well as reduce the likelihood of “failing to stand”.

Thank you for the player discussion on this issue, which prompted internal review!
