[QUOTE="Lord Sessadore, post: 4127286, member: 57255"] The one problem I see with this is going against the "move actions are only for moves" thing. It basically encourages the same style as 3.x did: get up to your target of choice and stand there beating on him til he's dead. Granted, it won't have the same lag as high level full attacks did in 3.x, but the way 4e is designed I'd be surprised if you ever got to use this power often - you can't shift (5 ft step) without a move action, and it sounds like everyone is going to be moving around a lot. Unless you start your turn adjacent to an enemy, you cannot use this power in 4e. I like the concept behind it, I'm just not sure it would actually ever be used, and I don't think it aligns with what they want 4e to look like. The ranger is a striker, they shouldn't be standing in one spot to hammer on people, they should be darting around the battlefield. [/QUOTE]
