[QUOTE="mellored, post: 7325077, member: 6801209"] A whole bunch of OA's at once still doesn't seem bad. It's still a 1 attack for 1 attack trade. So you make 3 attacks a little sooner than otherwise. Possibly make it a move, so it cost a little more. Warcaster is still something to watch out for... It's probably best to simply just avoid using the words "Reaction" or "Opportunity Attack", as well as "Move", and avoid all the baggage that comes with them. Instead make a seperate word. (looks up synonyms...) counter, response, answer, reply, rejoinder, retort, riposte.... Maybe counter measure? Counter step? You;re spending movement, so "counter step" seems good. At least for the rest of this post. "You perform a counter step, by trading out one of the following...." My justification. The smarter you are, the more you can keep track of, the more you can react to. A low Int person can only focus on the enemy in front of him. A higher Int person could also follow what's happening to their friend 20' away. You can tie Int to the counter stepts themselves. i.e. When a creature makes an attack, you can give them +Int to their roll. Hmm... Though I think I prefer advantage. Maybe knowing more counter steps? So high Int people can cover more [I]situations[/I], if not more physical area. You learn a number of counter steps equal to 2+ your intelligence modifer (minimum 1). Possibly. I like that. Fair. Also, if you go with "counter step" (or whatever), you can just make inititive boosting one of the optoins. Since it's not a "reaction", you can use it durring inititve. Maybe space it out? You can use your Action Surge to gain 3 bonus counter steps. You can use these bonuses counter steps at any time before the end of your next short rest, but only once per round. At level 20, this increases to 4 counter steps. Maybe allow for variety? You can expend your action surge to perform any counter step, including ones you do not know. Dunno, but it needs something.
