[QUOTE="Warpiglet-7, post: 8087850, member: 7025282"] No you are right. It’s just for fun—novelty. Not likely to be a regular event. Though I like saving a spell and a smite. I would likely know about my mulligan and keep one, just one in reserve. as to common...yeah what was unlikely has been more common. After 3e it’s gotten harder to be unusual. Tashas will make it next to impossible. (Shrug). however, orcish fury is a HALF feat. So a +1 to an ability score is sacrificed. Looking ahead, at 4th I could have a 16 str, 10 dex, 16 con, 10 int, 10 wis, 14 chr. And extra +1 is ok to set up another half feat but I would not think it would make much of a difference. so for my race it seems a reasonable cost for something less common. 5d12. On a crit, the half orc can do 3d12. Once a short rest I can add a weapon die. So 4d12. Per sage advice, this extra die would also be doubled for another d12. 5d12. If a dm took issue with Crawford’s ruling I suppose it would only be 4d12 on a crit, and DMs can do as they wish which is OK. in the end I am not looking to break the game or anything. However, I like rolling d12s...and one a short rest, I get an extra one! I just think it would be rare. I don’t think the feat is popular like gwm or ASI or whatever. It’s not as powerful Of course. how often would it come into play? Not too often. But if I did a retributive smite a few times it would be worth some giggles for me. the main power of the Paladin offensively of course is smite. So that is present. I am not sure if I would play More bravely in melee knowing I can do a retributive strike Of sorts. Maybe. final thought: not ultra powerful. Not super common but perhaps the best (only?) retributive strike I can think of. Maybeone of the barbarians can do something? I dunno. But I think I will try it. [/QUOTE]
