[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 7244781, member: 5889"] Commander's Strike is not a maneuver you might spam like precision strike, but it has solid uses. A few examples: 1) Your fighter is not as optimized for damage compared to another character (Paladin, Rogue, maybe a Barb). Maybe for example of those characters took GWM/SS and your character did not. This is an example when "spamming" CS might work. 2) Your in a situation where even though your damage is normally amazing...in this situation its not. Example, you got hit with a ray of exhaustion or some disadvantage whammy (maybe a slow spell). Or the monster is vulnerable to radiant damage so your paladin buddy is looking really good right now. The rogue has a killer use of poison, your archer has an arrow of slaying ready to go...etc. 3) You aren't in a position to make an attack. So I think the maneuver has plenty of uses. I would have loved to see it use Int in some way (just to give a fighter who wants to use INT some reason to have the stat). But its not weak imo. [/QUOTE]
