[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7771210, member: 23751"] No, that's not what I'm saying. This is how you take the attack action. You tell the DM you are taking the attack action. Then as part of the action, you make an attack. That moves you a few pages further in the PHB to the Making an Attack section. Step 1 is choose a target. Step 2 is determine modifiers. Step 3 is resolve the attack. At that point the attack action is done unless you have extra attack, in which case you repeat those three steps with the possibility of moving in-between. Sanctuary is a specific rule that beats the general one above. It stops you at step 1 and if you fail the save, ends your attack action there. At no point without the specific Sanctuary rule overriding the general Making an Attack rules does the have you taken the attack action prior to step 3. No. No you haven't. You have simply prepared to take the selfie. The act is pointing the camera at yourself and clicking the button. That's it. [/QUOTE]
