[QUOTE="Plaguescarred, post: 6908002, member: 6701422"] I did read and even repeatedly also acknowledged that your reading was one way to do it perhaps you should re-read what i wrote if you still doubt! You're the one who came quoting me up on my assertion and i said your interpretation was one way to do it. I've added the word "type" because you don't have to mention wether you make a ranged or melee attack type if you Ready to attack if the rogues moves. You are right that Ready doesn't mention which type of attack you Ready if its such action you chose, and that is even the reason why i started saying you don't even have to! You know what's vague? Choosing the action you will take in response to a trigger.....The action can be attacking and since there's no need to declare the how or which target, you can do so when taking the reaction. Take a popular usage of the Ready action that consist of attacking an enemy popping in and out of cover. If you had to target with attack or spells when taking the Ready action rather than the reaction, you wouldn't be to do so having no clear path to the target in full cover. If you look at dispel magic exemple in Sage Advice it also doesn't select target when taking the Ready action and pre casting the spell, leaving this when he will cast it fully instead. [/QUOTE]
