Ready Action to Spring Attack?

I read the foe designating only applying to the "no AoO provoked" part. The part about the second attack is written separate from the first two sentences.

Same for the second feat: The additional attacks refer in no way to the designation of the opponents.

Edit: I'd like to see a ruling how these feats work with TWF.
I would allow Bounding Assault or Rapid Blitz against one foe, but I could see how you could consider that you need two (or three) to get the other attacks... You use the other opponent to confuse the first so that you can make the second (or third) attack.


As for Two-Weapon Fighting, I can see why you there would be cause for discussion, but if you keep it simple, Bounding Assault allows you to make one additional attack with your Spring Attack feat, which is still a Standard Action... off-hand attacks require a Full-Round Action.

The way around this is to find a way to make the split-move action a free action! Then, you could make a Full-Round action and still get the Spring Attack with multiple attacks...

This of course is getting to the ridiculous stage... You are able to move faster than fast, and then get multiple attacks in on an opponent, and then bound away... So... dart in, whack, whack, whack, whack, whack, and then dart out.... all in 6 seconds... this seems past reasonable. However, the game has allowed quite a bit of "past reasonable" with all of it's expansion books so who am I to argue...

Dervish and Tempest class ;)

Especially the Dervish class with "A Thousand cuts."
Tempest is in Complete Warrior... where is the Dervish?

Edit: Ahh, the Complete Warrior...

For what it's worth, the special edition PHB (and subsequent printings, I believe) changed the description of Spring Attack ...

Yes, the old 'stealth errata' trick. Of course, this means that those printings of the PHB are actually D&D v. 3.6, and aren't usable in standard 3.5 games. :uhoh:
