Message: <blockquote data-quote="gribble" data-source="post: 3014697" data-attributes="member: 12430">Wrong. There is the attack action which is a standard action and allows you to make one melee attack or one ranged attack. There is also the full attack action, which is a full round action and allows you to make multiple melee attacks or multiple ranged attacks (if BAB or other factors - TWF, etc allow). As currently worded, it would be perfectly legal to take a swift action to replenish your maneuvers, followed by a full attack action. This would meet the prerequisite of making a melee attack immediately after the swift action - the wording specifically doesn't say that you must take the attack action, or that the melee attack you must make can't be followed by further melee attacks. This is either an oversight or intentional on the part of WotC. If the former, it will soon be errated as (IMO) it just makes the warblade too good. With the limitation of having to follow the swift action with only a single melee attack (i.e.: the standard action attack action) the warblade is still a very good, but probably not broken, class. In fact, this is something I'll probably houserule, if anyone wants to play one in a game I run.Wrong again. Being based on a fighter, the DD had more feats than the warblade, and certainly wasn't based purely around defence (though one of the few advantages he had over the warblade was a higher AC - not that it really mattered against a CRD, which was pretty much hitting on 1s anyway). While he certainly seemed to suck compared to the druid, cleric, wizard and warblade, he was definitely better than the rogue, and I think he was about what I'd expect from a 20th level warrior type in terms of power scale. He just didn't stack up to the warblade, which as the other fighter-type is the best thing to compare him to. Even the DM (who presumably had seen the warblade in action all day) said that the class was broken.Oh, and sorry about not getting the stats up. I haven't been home the last couple of evenings, but I'll make sure I get it done tonight or over the weekend.</blockquote>
