<p>Hero Points specifically call out that no action is required to spend them, so they are clear on those as well.</p>
<p>I am fine either way, I just would like a little clarity since this came up from a player in my playtest. Other "point systems" they have clarify the actions required to spend them.</p>It just runs kind of like Ki points and the Magus Arcane Pool, so I was wondering if they have clarity on actions required to spend those Mythic Points, like Ki points and Arcane Pool.
