Some actions do not consume the ''Reaction'' resource and may be performed whenever their trigger occurs. These triggered actions are presented as Reactions by the game. Examples include Divine Smite, Sneak Attack, or Reckless Attack.  
Some actions do not consume the ''Reaction'' resource and may be performed whenever their trigger occurs. These triggered actions are presented as Reactions by the game. Examples include Divine Smite, [[Sneak Attack]], or [[Reckless Attack]].  


Many of these actions are presented as ''Actions'' in the game. For example, [[Barbarian]]s characters have a Reckless Attack action included in their hotbar (from level 2 onwards). This will cause the triggering action (in this case a melee weapon attack or unarmed strike) to be taken with the reaction triggered automatically. These actions can instead be managed through the Reactions Tab to be performed as a reaction in response to their triggering action.

In the case of Reckless Attack, the game can be set to prompt you in response to performing an attack, which will ask you if you want to perform a Reckless Attack.
