[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 9504167, member: 87792"] Three extra attacks per long rest at level 3 and four at level 4 is non-trivial. Three or four attacks per [I]short[/I] rest pretty good from when you get Font of Inspiration at level 5. And remember you also get the unarmoured defence at the same level. Remember that you can also make an attack as part of this reaction thanks to Agile Strikes. On the other hand a d8 to everyone's initiative can be [I]stunningly[/I] good. If monsters last three rounds of PC attacks on average then beating them on initiative is the difference between them getting three rounds off and getting two. This is one of the strongest tier 2 abilties in the game, rivalled only by paladin auras. I have difficulty not rating this as at worst an A-tier subclass. Four abilities for level 2, two of them pretty good? Two for level 6, one of them S-tier and the other just pretty good? [/QUOTE]
