Now, as I understand it, 5E is built to accomodate both TotM and gridbased play. But looking at some of the rules, things like people moving 5 feet or being so and so distance away, seems to suggest that using grids is still baked into the rules.
How exactly are you supposed to use Theater of the Mind to handle those cases? Let's say some Goblin archers are firing at the PCs, and the PCs need to move towards the Goblins to attack them, or be at a certain range to use an ability. The amount of turns it takes to cross that gap could make all the difference in an encounter.
Are you supposed to just wing it and say "sure whatever, you're close enough" or is there a way you're supposed to measure it? Or is this all really saying that you still need grids after all?
