[QUOTE="Corwin, post: 111604, member: 1560"] Agreed. It is. But that doesn't explain how you came to the conclusion you have. Looky here... Seems pretty clear to me that you [b]cannot[/b] take a 5-foot step in the middle of a WWA. The new targets you are stepping over to hit were [i]not[/i] within reach when you declared you were giving up your itterative attacks. Since they were not at the required 5 feet away at the time, you cannot WWA them. Put it this way, based on the feat's description... 1) You declare you are going to WWA. 2) Give up all your regular attacks. 3) Determine who you are attacking within 5 feet of you. 4) Attack them all. 5) WWA ends. 'Nuff said, IMO. Having taken care of that, there is a bit more to the WWA controversy which you may find interesting (unless you already knew it)... Officially, when using WWA, you are still allowed to make any-and-all attacks you may have with your off-hand. That is because they are not your "regular attacks" as specified in the WWA feat description. [/QUOTE]
