[QUOTE="Xyrlove Woodsoul, post: 5162352, member: 86857"] How comparable do you people think the new Fighter At-Will Attack Power in Dragon #385, Shield Feint, is compared to the other Fighter At-wills? When something new is published our dm lets us "retrain" something if we want. I have a balanced human fighter who uses a shield and bastard sword, his at-wills are, Footwork Lure, Tide of Iron, and Brash Strike. He rarely uses Brash Strike, but comes in real handy when he needs a +2 to hit. He doesn't use Footwork Lure a whole lot, but also comes in handy. Our party members change, so I can't really base his powers off other party members, more so, just the best availiable power. I like this Shield Feint power because it seems like it could set up an important Daily attack, that needs to hit. But I dunno. So what do you think?
