[QUOTE="kerbarian, post: 6430346, member: 40393"] The Path of the Berserker grants the Frenzy feature. The effects and aftereffects (exhaustion) are clear, but I'm a little confused about how you can initiate it. The feature says [indent]"you can go into a frenzy when you rage. If you do so, for the duration of your rage you can make a single melee weapon attack as a bonus action on each of your turns after this one."[/indent] So you can decide to frenzy as you first start your rage. Starting your rage costs a bonus action, so you can't take the bonus action attack until "your turns after this one." What I'm unclear on is: Can you decide to go into a frenzy if you're already raging? It looks consistent with the wording that you could decide to go into a frenzy at some later point during your rage, but you wouldn't get a bonus attack right away -- you'd start getting them on "your turns after this one." That also implies that the decision has to be made on your turn. Or it could just be that you can only decide to frenzy when you first go into a rage. Has there been any clarification on this?
