[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7419437, member: 6919838"] I am so very crushed you chose to give me no points that words cannot express it. But again, since some serm to love ducking context here is the post my comments were in response to where the poster was trying to concoct a link between the number of attacks and the ability to bash and falsely make it look like it requires more after 5th than at 4th. I can agree completely that trying to base one's argument on number of attacks is fradulent or at the least pointless, that is why i responded after all to that very fraud. "So my 4th level fighter gets the Shield Master feat. Now I can shield bash, but ONLY if I execute my one attack first. Okay, so attacking ONCE is the thing that allows me to shield bash, right? Now I get to 5th level and gain Extra Attack. Why does one attack no longer allow me to shield bash? Why does it now take two attacks? I'm supposed to be better than I was a level ago, not worse! What's going on" You may note the complete hogwash about somehow construing this as being worse at 5th than at rth even tho everything that can be done at 4th is still available - along with the double hit option. So, again, perhapd checking context is something you should consider looking into before giving out your incredibky valuable points. [/QUOTE]
