Fighting style: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:41, 18 January 2024

Fighting Styles are available to certain (sub)classes as a feature, increasing their combat efficacy with certain equipment.

Once learned, Fighting Styles are permanently active; you cannot "disable" a Fighting Style.
- Respeccing at Withers will still remove the feature.
- Protection is the only Fighting Style which allows you to choose whether or not it is applied, as a Reaction.
Each fighting style can only be chosen once.
- You can learn multiple types, and they will all apply as applicable; a character dual-wielding Hand Crossbows with Archery and Two-Weapon Fighting will gain +2 to attack rolls with both weapons, and deal additional damage with the offhand one.
