Sentinel would be fun too - not so much for the better chance to get an opportunity attack, but the threat of stopping your opponent cold with the Echo. But the GWM build hits a lot harder and does not rely on bonus actions as much. ![]() This combo allows you to equip a hand xbow and a longsword (or other melee one-handed weapon) without any need for weapon swapping. I was strongly, strongly considering using the repeating weapon infusion + xbow mastery to resolve the juggling conundrum. Therefore, the best way to use the echo knight might be to take advantage of these features by using a glaive or a greatsword and picking up GWM. The best features of Echo Knight are unleash incarnation and the threat of using an opportunity attack. But with the twist of multiclassing it with Battle Smith Artificer. Q: Can an Echo appear as a different version of the Knight (perhaps from a different timeline), or are they identical to the Knight’s current appearance? (thanks …Īs you could infer from my post, I'm starting a similar build. Q: If a Knight changes appearance after manifesting an Echo, does the Echo’s appear also change? For example if the Knight changed appears because they are a Changling or used magic. (Would this answer to this primarily be DM dependent?) Q: If an Echo Knight/Warlock using the invocation 'Mask of Many Faces’ manifested an Echo, would the Echo’s appearance be identical to the ‘Mask of Many Faces’ illusion, or to the Knight' normal appearance? What if the Echo Knight used the disguise skill? Or what if the Echo Knight was a changling in disguise? (thanks … (I’m not sure the best way to phrase this question or if it is too edge case.) Q: Can you used Unleash Incarnation to make an extra attack after using Action surge? For example, using Action Surge, can a Knight make two full Attack Actions, and then make two Unleash Incarnation attacks? (thanks … (Is there a precedent for this for any teleporting abilities?) Q: If a Knight is jumping or falling, and swaps places with their Echo, do they maintain their velocity after they teleport? (thanks … Q: If the Knight grapples an opponent, and then swaps places with the Echo, does opponent teleport with them, or does the grapple end? (thanks … It is up the DM to determine if the Echo is more like a solid “object" or a "translucent image", both of which are used to describe the Echo.) Q: If an Echo is considered an object, can you paint it? (thanks … (I took a stab at answering in a previous post (as have others), but I’m open to other ideas.) Q: Can a Knight use a bonus action attack gain through the Polearm Master, Great Weapon Mater, or Crossbow Expert feats to make an attack from their Echo’s Space? I’d love to get your thoughts on if these should be added to the main FAQ and/or your answers to any of the questions. I’ve gathered the below additional questions from the thread so far. We'll fix it in a future printing! Sorry about the confusion." The text stating that intent is mysteriously missing from the book. Jeremy Crawford tweeted, “The intent is that you can't do anything with the Echo Knight's echo while using Echo Avatar, other than scout with it. Q: Can you teleport to an Echo that is 1000’ away using the Echo Avatar feature?Ī: No by RAI, a Knight cannot teleport while using an Echo Avatar. I think I covered teleporting to an Echo Avatar in the FAQ, but correct me if you think the answer is wrong. It's not immediately clear from reading the Manifest Echo and Echo Avatar that you could use Echo Avatar, move the Echo 30 feet every 6 seconds in ANY direction up to 1000 feet away, meaning that in this 10 minute window you see and hear through it's receptors and can move a grand total of 3000 feet if you don't stop moving the moment the ability triggers allowing a LOT of scouting in tall rooms/halls/areas AND at a whim you can swap places with it wherever it is, even if it's 1000 feet straight up Whether this is RAI is unclear at this time. "When you take the Attack action and attack with only a glaive, halberd, or quarterstaff, you can use a bonus action to make a melee attack with the opposite end of the weapon.” ![]() But while the action is indeed a melee attack, a bonus actions is not part of the Attack action. The Polearm Master feat clearly grants a bonus action if an Attack action is made. “When you take the Attack action on your turn, any attack you make with that action can originate from your space or the echo’s space. ![]() Manifest Echo specifically states that only attacks made using the Attack action can be can be made from an Echo’s space. An Echo Knight cannot use Manifest Echo to make an bonus action attack using Polearm Master through their Echo. Q: Bonus Action Attacks? Can a knight perform the PAM BA through the echo? I presume that it cannot perform the OOA on a creature entering the echo's space. Monstrous Compendium Vol 3: Minecraft Creatures
