[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7962931, member: 82504"] I am still thinking in terms of a Maneuver ie mostly designed for fighters so the "as an action" is off is some fashion That said as a maneuver its numerically close The CS die value is adds an Attack Opportunity you wouldn't have gotten + CS die worth of damage if it works for price of a CS die. I rethought and you seem to have the value clase as a normal cs die. A riposte advantage is not exactly combined with an attack it just adds one... so if you choose to use it to boost your next attack the price works out. The biggest problem with the idea for me is that it is not situational and too easy to target. A riposte kind of happens when it wants to less when you want it *though if you buff your defenses its still pretty much against anyone you are fighting so its not that different either. In 3e and 4e it would be situationally valuable to overcome DR but is less tactical in 5e. as it only gains a little situational benefit if some other effect grants you advantage or inspiration to improve a single attack accuracy (which would not benefit two). We could add the charge element back in ... ie you must start 10 feet or more away doing the lunge ie move in a straight line 10 feet towards them to gain momentum advantage. [/QUOTE]
