Since three attacks are being made on one standard 6 second action, and one of those attacks is striking the defender, does he have time or the opportunity to retaliate?By my standard, no. And I've not seen a table to date that objects.Though I will also say that it's rare that the elites or solos with their 2x-4x attack actions get to attack multiple creatures, or at the very least they receive some tangential benefit for attacking the same target, so the defender often gets whomped anyway (or the creature violates the mark).</blockquote>
