[QUOTE="Sepulchre, post: 8479786, member: 7033220"] The current language also suffers from the flaw of failing to rule out something like Fighter 5/Berserker 6 getting three attacks. The rule says the 11th-level Extra Attack [I]feature[/I] is an exception to the rule against stacking. Reading it most literally means that it does nothing until you get to level 11 in one class. But the Fighter/Marshal example shows that this is not the correct reading. Another plausible reading is that the Extra Attack feature of Fighters and Marshals, which increases to three at level 11, stacks with other instances of Extra Attack, such as the Berserkers. The example fails to rule this out, which I think is the intent, by using the only Extra Attack class combination in which both classes gain another attack at level 11. The simple fix is: The Extra Attack features gained by fighters and marshals stack with each other. In my humble opinion, however, letting a Fighter 5/Berserker 6 attack 3 times is fine, and I would vote for that rule instead. Especially with Action Surge getting deep-sixed. [/QUOTE]
