Blitzkrieg[edit]

It's a compound word, yo. And it's spelled the way I spelled it, which is why is why it's pronounced "creeg". - TG Cid 05:56, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Also, this feat requires a shitton of prerequisites for not even that great of a benefit. You get one attack on multiple opponents, so unless they're pathetic mooks or you have to godliest damage build ever (doubtful when you have so much wrapped in just acquiring this feat) you're just hitting for a little bit of damage. Yaaaaay, making the melee guy feel even more useless! - TG Cid 06:02, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Also, see Bounding Assault and Rapid Blitz from PHB2. --Ghostwheel 11:09, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Without the prereq problems, it is sorta a pseudo-pounce. Sorta. --Aarnott 13:05, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Agree with the previous statements. Also would like to add; there's a spot reserved in hell for the person that made up the Dodge -> Mobility -> Spring -> Whirlwind feat progression and that anything that is based on it won't ever amount to much. The only class that could remotely pull it off before he's three quarters on the way to level 20 is the fighter, and the fighter sort of sucks. I hate to say it but when it comes to attack options like these, I feel maneuvers do it better than feats. --Sulacu 14:51, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Look at the sequence and prereqs again. I built in a special cheat that makes using this feat worthwhile, for I can see the future, and this feat was full of whining.--Change=Chaos. Period. SC 20:10, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
Prereqs are just as strict as you wrote. There is no room for misinterpretation there, except, perhaps, by you. Maybe you meant to do something in one of your other feats and didn't. If you are pointing out that it doesn't require Whirlwind, you are misreading what Sulacu wrote. She was saying that that feat chain is terribly designed. It wasn't really specific to this article. --130.214.9.245 21:04, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
No, I was pointing out that it allowed three attacks at maximum attack bonus in a round where other people are stuck making two attacks as a fullround action, one of which being sub optimal. That said, the speed branch needs some adjustments. BRB--Change=Chaos. Period. SC 23:25, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
And done. Now a human rogue can easily get the entire branch in 9 levels, non-human in 12.--Change=Chaos. Period. SC 23:28, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Ratings[edit]

RatedNeutral.png Aarnott is neutral on this article and rated it 2 of 4.
An otherwise good feat is held back by far too restrictive prereqs. Feat chains were a bad idea in practice: don't add to the problem!
