Readying an action taking two actions and a reaction. I get why – Ready itself costs an action, and then you still have to pay the original action cost – but I think it’s all a step too far. I’ve increasingly tried to run my table fiction-first, and I let players ready actions of any cost for just a reaction (assuming they have the actions remaining to actually do the thing)
Readying an action costs one action and your reaction. (There are other costs, too, though, like the fact that you can’t ready some combinations of multiple attacks and bonuses that only work on your turn, or the risk of spending a spell slot without a benefit, etc.). Either way, your point definitely still stands.
