[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 6874356, member: 4348"] I think there are two things at play here. People are applying their own houserules and thinking they are the rules as written (which is inaccurate), Or if it is like this thread....people are confused at the difference between an attack action (which multiattack seems to qualify as) and the different TYPES of attack actions. For example, multiattack is an attack action. You roll to attack several times with this and it is usually found under a Monster description. A Single melee attack is an attack action. You attack once. It is the main attack action of characters. In the example in this thread...EXTRA ATTACK specifies the attack ONCE as part of it's definition. This is why I PERSONALLY would clarify it as NOT being able to be stacked with multi attack. Because the attack action defined is for the single melee attack and NOT the multiattack. Hence where it is different is that where as the attack action is a rather broad definition, the Attack ONCE, or Single melee attack is more specific and defined. [/QUOTE]
