[QUOTE="CovertOps, post: 5232651, member: 65152"] So by your logic this: and this: are both also "enhancement bonuses" and don't stack. Also all the people in [url=http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/279285-do-healing-items-stack.html]this[/url] thread are wrong about said items stacking. By your logic any game element that grants you a bonus based on "enhancement bonus" (the value of) is therefore of the "enhancement bonus" type. This breaks the basic tenet of 4e exception based design. It would require you to declare the "type" of every bonus explicitly including "untyped". The whole point of "untyped" is that it's type [b]isn't[/b] declared and it isn't declared on purpose. I'm not sure which English language you're using. Multiple meanings are just like words that can be multiple parts of speech like noun or verb. Such words [b]never[/b] take on more than one part of speech within a given sentence. That's just not the way language works. As a last thought..."enhancement bonus value" is a phrase that is never used in the rules, but if it had I could see "enhancement bonus" = type and "enhancement bonus value" = quantity. And if THIS is true then you've broken all the OTHER feats that rely on "wielding something in each hand" such as two-weapon fighting, two-weapon defense, etc. [/QUOTE]
