I´m a Human Fighter, multiclassed with Cleric in a party of 2 Wizards and 1 Warlock.
I had Covering Attack as an Encounter Power, but since my buddies aren´t usually in melee, I don´t find it useful.
Now I´m 2nd level and I´m planning to retrain it.
My problem with the other encounter powers are these:
Passing Attack: good power, but useless vs one foe. I´d rather have a power to beat one enemy faster. All in all, my best option so far.
Spinning Sweep: being prone, impose penalties to ranged attacks, which my buddies do plenty. Even if I delay until I´m last in my turn, I can´t see how much of a hindrance is to be prone since you can get up as a moev action without provoking AoO
Steel Serpent Strike: I like this power, but I can´t seem to find what it adds to my repertorie, since my Combat Challenge + Combat Superiority is better than this. In fact, if I want to keep an enemy close to me, Spinning Sweep seems a better choice.
So, Passing Attack seems the better power so far, but I can´t find how/when the other powers could be useful.
Opinions/Help?
