Hello, I have some doubts with the use of some actions:

1) Using a search item - a potion for example - does takes an action?

2) Using the heroic Feat does takes an action?

3) If these uses takes no action  I'm limited to the number of uses I can take in a turn using them?

Thanks for any kind soul that may answer to this topic.

Regards

If there is an "Actionsymbol" (Arrow) on it, yes. If not: no. (Healthpotion takes an action, Stamina not… )

The same as in #1. If there is an Arrow on it: yes.

If a card has a "=>" (arrow) icon on it, then it uses one of the actions.

If a card has "exhaust" on it, then it may only be used once per turn (and is reset during the "card refresh" section at the start of the players turn) ;

Or if there are neither of these terms, then there will usually be an associated fatigue cost with using the ability.

If there is no fatigue cost, exhaust wording, or arrow icon - then the action is "free"; unless it has additional wording such as "once per turn" or "after action x use this ability".

 

Hope that clarified somewhat.

An action is not required unless specified.  Other restrictions will also be spelled out.  Unless a card is exhausted (to be refreshed at the start of your next turn) it can be used again, as long as any other restrictions are met & costs paid.

Rules, page 7: "Different cards or quests may provide heroes with unique actions to perform. These actions are either clearly stated “as an action” or noted with a {arrow icon}."
