[QUOTE="ClaytonCross, post: 7334437, member: 6880599"] Now with quotes!! As I see it if you use the Attack action, you can replace one of your attacks that turn to attack with your Familiar. Casting a spell as your action would prevent familiar attacks. Pact of the Chain "Additionally, when you take the [B]Attack action[/B], you can forgo one of your own [B]attacks[/B] to allow your familiar to make one attack of its own." - Meaning you replace 1 [B]attack[/B] not the attack action as long as you used the [B]Attack action[/B] in the process. Grapple (For any SageAdvice references since they seem to read the same to me) "When you want to grab a creature or wrestle with it, you can use the [B]Attack action[/B] to make a special melee attack, a grapple. If you’re able to make multiple attacks with the Attack action, [B]this attack replaces one of them[/B]." - Meaning you replace 1 [B]attack[/B] not the attack action as long as you [B]used the Attack action[/B] in the process. Two-handed fighting "When you take the [B]Attack action[/B] and attack with a light melee weapon that you’re holding in one hand, you can use a bonus action to [B]attack[/B] with a different light melee weapon that you’re holding in the other hand." - I say yes but ask your GM since they could argue that the bonus action is a separator though nothing says that, it would be a GM call. War Cleric (When you use the [B]Attack action[/B], you can make one weapon [B]attack[/B] as a bonus action.) - I say yes but ask your GM since they could argue that the bonus action is a separator though nothing says that, it would be a GM call. Eldritch Knight War magic (when you use your [B]action to cast[/B] a cantrip, you can make one weapon [B]attack[/B] as a bonus action.) - So no, I was wrong this doesn't work since you [B]did not use the attack action[/B]. Extra attack "Beginning at 5th level, you can [B]attack twice[/B], instead of once, whenever you take the [B]Attack action[/B] on your turn." - Literally seems to be written with this in mind, defiant yes. --Also as a side note, Warlock of the Chain/Sorcerer can Attack action attack with Familiar quicken metamagic cast 1 action spells.
