[QUOTE="Xeviat, post: 7170261, member: 57494"] What Mearls seems to have been saying was that each of those would be a separate action, so no, you couldn't stack them all. "Fight with two weapons" or in this case "polearm master" would be an attack action. Healing word would be an action that also allows you to use a cantrip or make a weapon attack. Spiritual Weapon would be harder ... After all of these threads on the matter, I think my only issue with Bonus Actions is the name. I know I was confused initially a few times when reading the book. "You don't normally get a bonus action, but certain abilities grand the ability to use a bonus action and you're limited to one per turn" just seemed to be a complex way of doing minor actions from 3.5 and 4th. I know they wanted to avoid everyone rushing to get a minor action ability, but I've seen a lot of rushing to get bonus action abilities and spells as it is.
