[QUOTE="cjosephs1s, post: 5738487, member: 6683450"] [MENTION=6674868]RUMBLETiGER[/MENTION] No biggie. I Understood what you meant and I'm sure just about everyone else did too since we know the rules on how reach work. [MENTION=6685538]Luka[/MENTION] Well the idea is that you won't be moving a whole lot once you get your character into position. But a move action is still an action which takes away from other actions. So if you use a move action to pull a new weapon you won't get a full round of attacks (at level 12 this is 3 attacks for a full round of attacks.) You will only get 1 attack. And if you take a move action to put a weapon away and a move action to draw a weapon this is basically your entire turn that round and you get no attacks unless an opponent provokes an attack of opportunity. This is why I told you to read chapter 8 in the PHB on how combat works. It outlines all of this in good detail and has charts showing what actions are move actions, standard actions, and free actions and if they provoke attacks of opportunity under normal circumstances.
