[QUOTE="Chibbot, post: 4258632, member: 63856"] Something interesting that I noticed, don't know it it's over or under powered, just a neat synergy (assuming I'm reading it right, which is a big assumption!) A paragon-tier warlord with the heavy blade opportunity feat gets to use an at-will power in place of a basic attack for opportunity attacks, provided that the power has the Weapon keyword. The at-will power Commander's Strike lets an ally of your choosing make a basic attack with a bonus to their damage. Commander's Strike has the Weapon keyword, and it lists no range, or conditions. Simply, an ally of your choosing makes an attack. So, if I'm understanding this correctly, in this situation, any provoked opportunity attack for the warlord (i.e., any time that the warlord is allowed to [i]take[/i] an opportunity attack against a foe) could potentially be translated into a basic attack (with bonus damage) by any ally on the battlefield, against whoever they threaten. Its a pretty sweet combo, I think. [/QUOTE]
