[QUOTE="The Little Raven, post: 4357290, member: 10095"] A d20 check which targets a Defense. An "Attack Power" is not the same as an "attack roll," which is the actual attack in question. Attack Powers is simply a label for the type of power it is, for the purpose of determining how many powers of what type you possess. Wall of Fire is an Attack Power, but as it does not have a d20 check which targets a defense, it does not feature an attack roll, and therefore is not an attack. A power's Effect box is completely unrelated to any of it's possible attack rolls, and therefore is not affected by abilities that springboard from a hit or a miss. Most attack powers require an attack roll, but not all. If it doesn't have an Attack entry, then the power is not making an attack (despite the label of Attack Power, which is there for character management purposes). [/QUOTE]
