Extra Attack

Template:Up to date

Extra Attack is a passive feature that allows you to make an additional attack when making an Attack Action.

Description

You can make an additional free attack after making an unarmed or weapon attack.

How to learn

Classes:

• Class level 5: Barbarian, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, and [[ Warlock (with Pact of the Blade)| Warlock (with Pact of the Blade)]]
• Class level 6: College of Swords, and College of Valour

Notes

• The Attack needs to cost an Action for Extra Attack to trigger, so things like  Flurry of Blows does not work with it.
• Additional instances of Extra Attack do not stack, e.g. when multiclassing a  Ranger and  Fighter, both at level 5, you will only have 1 extra attack.
• Currently the Extra Attack of Pact of the Blade  Warlocks does stack with other sources of Extra Attack, thus allowing 3 attacks per Action.
  • This is disabled in Honour mode.^Honour
• At level 11, the  Fighter class gains an improved version of this ability,  Improved Extra Attack.
• The  Hastened condition allows a creature to make multiple attacks for both their base Action and their Haste Action. For example, a Hastened character with Extra Attack can make 2 total attacks per Action for a combined total of 4 attacks per turn.
• Extra Attack may not be used to make additional attacks outside of your turn (such as part of a Reaction, like an Attack of Opportunity or Riposte).
• Extra Attack applies only to your character's primary weapon when using Dual Wield, as an offhand attack is considered a Bonus Action. Only the Thief  Fast Hands feature increases the Bonus Action amount.
• Flow: If you attack with a weapon then spellcasting and other actions will be disabled for the rest of the turn. The converse is true where if you cast a spell first then weapon attacks are disabled for the rest of the turn.
• Aside from basic attacks, Extra Attack works with any special ability that uses a weapon, unarmed, or throwing attack roll. There are also some other abilities that are explicitly coded to work with Extra Attack:
  •  Commander's Strike
  •  Bufotoxin
  • Smokepowder Arrow
