Hi everyone,
One of my PCs suffers from STR dmg and has been slowly healing back his ability points each night while resting. I know Long Term Care can accelerate the process.
However it doesn't say if the person providing Long Term Care does one Heal Check and then is done and can leave the other while he rests, or if that person has to stay awake and provide that care while the other rests, doing nothing else?
Side Question: Does Ray of Enfeeblement provide lasting STR dmg which has to be healed with resting, or does the dmg leave (restoring the ability score to it's full score) as soon as the duration is over?
Thanks!
From the core rule book heal skill (bolding mine):
Action: Providing first aid, treating a wound, or treating poison is a standard action. Treating a disease or tending a creature wounded by a spike growth or spike stones spell takes 10 minutes of work. Treating deadly wounds takes 1 hour of work. Providing long-term care requires 8 hours of light activity.
Ray of Enfeeblement does not do strength damage. It inflicts a penalty. When the spells duration expires, so does the penalty.

Why didn't any of us see that? Thanks for your clarification!
Do you happen to know about the second question too?
