[QUOTE="SirKuroikage, post: 8999170, member: 7036770"] In the spirit of playing Devil's Advocate I have a few things to bring up. Where does it mention that you can only take the attack action once a turn? In the actions in combat section I just found where it says [I]"On your turn, you typically have an action, a bonus action, and your movement."[/I] I might of missed it or it might be in the book and I was using just the tools site. The reason I bring that up though is because you might technically not be able to activate any of the attack options using Devoted Assault. In the combat maneuvers section it mentions [I]"Using a combat maneuver requires spending one or more exertion points and either a bonus action, reaction, or action. [B]Certain combat maneuvers require two or more attacks (from Extra Attacks or the use of other class features), and if you are unable to use the Attack action to make as many attacks on your turn as the combat maneuver requires, you cannot use that combat maneuver.[/B]"[/I] Striding Swings is probably fine to activate since it seems to mainly be talking about maneuvers with the prerequisite Extra Attack, but Stunning Assault and Dispelling Assault both have the extra attack prereq, so would those not be allowed to be used with Devoted Assault?
