[QUOTE="Leugren, post: 6763831, member: 44754"] The most common and accepted interpretation equates "take" to "complete" in this sentence. Thus, "immediately after you [B]take[/B] the Attack Action" is functionally equivalent to "immediately after you [B]complete[/B] the Attack Action". Assuming that you have the Extra Attack feature, your Attack Action is completed after you have made two attacks. You can therefore trigger Flurry of Blows as a Bonus Action after you have completed both attacks. If you choose to trigger Flurry of Blows after only one attack, then you are basically cutting your Attack Action short and foregoing the second attack from your Extra Attack feature. Here is a snippet from Sage Advice in Jeremy Crawford confirms this interpretation: [COLOR=#1C2022][FONT=Helvetica][INDENT][URL="https://twitter.com/rbmiracle"]Brandon Miracle [COLOR=#697882]@rbmiracle[/COLOR][/URL] [URL="https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford"]@JeremyECrawford[/URL] so FoB must be after the Attack action is fully resolved, while Unarmed Strike acts like any other bonus action then? [/INDENT] [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#1C2022][FONT=Helvetica][INDENT][URL="https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford"] Follow[/URL] [URL="https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford"][IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/501487560565063682/G5HbBKPv_bigger.jpeg[/IMG]Jeremy Crawford [COLOR=#697882]@JeremyECrawford[/COLOR][/URL] [URL="https://twitter.com/rbmiracle"]@rbmiracle[/URL] That's correct. [COLOR=#697882][URL="https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford/status/632225244846002177"]12:20 PM - 14 Aug 2015 [/URL][/COLOR] [/INDENT] [/FONT][/COLOR] As others have stated, you can distribute your movement between any and all attacks as long as you don't exceed your movement speed.
