Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zardnaar" data-source="post: 7369550" data-attributes="member: 6716779">The bonus action cost for a fighter is mostly second wind or a dual wielder. I would not play a dual wielder BM fighter. I would also probably pick sentinel feat over shield master. Reactions are DM dependent most class can not reliably use them. Giving up a 1d8+5 or 1g8+7 attack for a 2d6+5+1d6 (hex+ great weapon), for a ranged attack (if you are not an archer) or for a hunter ranger with a bow to deal 1d8+5+1d6+1d8 is worth it or to enable a barbarian raging with advantage is also worth it. The Rogue is just an ideal at best scenario.If you are a great weapon fighter or use polearm master the opportunity cost is a bit higher even then I have seen attack granting being used on an archer as those builds suck at range. Its also useful for a dex based fighter switching to a bow for a ranged combat who would usually miss their attacks.  The opportunity cost for a warlord to grant an attack (no weapon style, no class features that ramp up damage) is even lower than a battlemaster fighter assuming you have strength or dex as a prime attribute. Its a bit higher for a warlord using a great weapon.  Once again assuming the warlord deals damage closer to a cleric than a warrior class, and has other abilities such as healing and tactical things to do.  I updated my one here.<a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?625334-Zards-Warlord-2-0" target="_blank">http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?625334-Zards-Warlord-2-0</a> Basic idea is the tactical one can grant attacks like a BM fighter and can get extra dice via exploits and grant extra attacks+rider using those exploits. Its better at it than a BM fighter, lower opportunity cost than a BM fighter, can't do it at will though you can probably get it up to aorund 8 times per short rest (24 times a long rest assuming the 2/short rests day thing). I also buffed the healing rate probably higher than a few 4E fans have put on their WL attempts.</blockquote>
