And relying on the player to identify his particular character's main attack won't work - if he can, he'll identify a secondary attack as his main one, to then be allowed to "catch up" with his real main one...!Unless you're ready for a whole truckload of rules text, the only simple implementation will be "your best attack, the one which can't benefit from the feat, is the one identified by your DM with reassessment taking place each level"... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I agree it was a neat idea, but it won't work in practice. It really can't - it would mean specific anti-minmaxing rules, and unless you involve the DM, they too will be minmaxable. In the end, there will probably be a lot of rules for very little benefit (in the form of added fun)...</blockquote>
