It's an intentionally suboptimal option you generally shouldn't be using that's confusing given similar options in previous editions were solid. That should be highlighted. But I totally agree that it needs a explicit bullet-point list of things that you can/can't do.I feel like it's one of the worse pieces of design in 5E for several reaons really:1) Yeah no explicit list of how it works, just a sort of mumbly and confused three paragraphs.2) Secretly limits you to one attack without explaining that - you have to infer it - most players, even smart ones, do not - many DMs do not.3) Weird usage of Concentration that comes out of nowhere and is never used again, feels like it's from an earlier edition.4) Doesn't explain that it's intentionally limited - the natural assumption is that you're not taking an action so you can take an action later, but it's a not true, you're not taking an action so that you can specify how you want to use your Reaction, in a really limited way that isn't properly explain.Awful.Re: Dash yeah it is confusing. It wasn't until I played BG3 that I realized how it was supposed to work - in practical terms it always worked fine without knowing that, though.</blockquote>
