[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9510015, member: 7030563"] Ok there are three errors here. First Cleave only does 1d12 with a Greataxe or 1d10 with a Glaive. Those are the only two weapons that have that property, there are no 2d6 weapons with it. Second Cleave does not add Strength. You only get the weapon damage, not the modifier damage Third if you don't have the cleave mastery you can't use Cleave. You would only get the Green Flame Blade damage in that case. A single class 5th level Bladelock wielding a Greataxe without the mastery feat who uses Green Flame Blade only does the Green Flame Blade damage. If they get the mastery feat and the Agonizing Blast Invocation then they would get the 1d8+2xCharisma plus another 1d12 through Cleave with another hit, but they would need both of those things. Ironically the only Class that can do both secondary Green Flame Blade damage and Cleave without resorting to a feat is a martial, specifically a Fighter with the Eldritch Knight subclass. Cleave does not work with any of those spells. I believe the only spells that Cleave works with are Steel Wind Strike, Booming Blade, Green Flame Blade and Truestrike and again only if you have the mastery. Valor Bards don't get mastery.
