Paradox? I'm confused...spending an action point is a free action, so if you're not allowed free actions after a charge (unless you spend an action point to do so) you'd have to spend the action point action to spend the action point? sounds weird...

Bracers of Mighty Striking For the Bracers of Mighty Striking, I would think the bonus only applies when you specifically make "a melee basic attack". Powers that "can be used as" a melee basic attack aren't "a melee basic attack" and then wouldn't get the bonus. Certainly not conclusive...

If you go by what's on p276, you could only crit if you nat20'd, which is why..."Precision: Some class features and powers allow you to score a critical hit when you roll numbers other than 20 (only a natural 20 is an automatic hit)." on pg278, where it explicitly states that only a natural 20...

Action Point? Since using an action point is considered a "Free Action" and it says I'm allowed to use an action point even after a charge, I always assumed that any free actions following a charge (triggered or otherwise) were legit...
