| Aug 8, 2020 at 19:23 | comment | added | Ryan C. Thompson | @SamLacrumb GFB has 2 targets, but the attack roll of GFB has only 1 target. (It's a good question though, since that's a subtle point.) | |
| Aug 8, 2020 at 15:40 | comment | added | Sam Lacrumb | The 1st time you hit with a melee att. According to Crawford gfb targets 2 creatures simultaneously which is why it cannot be twined. That is why I suspect that RAW it applies to both simultaneously hit targets that were hit based off a single dice roll. Absorb elements says the target not one target. Sonit still could be read as both? | |
| Aug 8, 2020 at 14:51 | comment | added | Exempt-Medic | Oh we actually have these questions already: "Does Green Flame Blade and Sweeping Attack combo cause the bonus effect of GFB to hit again?" and "Can green flame blade, slashing flourish, and sweeping maneuver be combined for a massive sweeping attack?" | |
| Aug 8, 2020 at 14:46 | comment | added | Ryan C. Thompson | @Medix2 Yeah, I think Sweeping Attack is worded like that specifically to avoid counting as either a 2nd attack or a single attack against 2 targets. The extra damage essentially works the same as Green-Flame Blade but with an additional condition. | |
