Hi All,
We're still using 4e right now, but my 5e books are on the way... I guess this is a fairly nit-picky question, but the manuever caused quite a debate at our last session so I want to make sure I have all the details straight for next time.
My question: If a character Sets as a full phase action, what options does he have in his next phase that allow him to maintain his set?
The rules clearly say that he can Brace and Fire in the next phase.
(1) Can he move and fire? I'm thinking he loses the set bonus for doing that.
(2) Can he reload or switch weapons? It seems likely that either of those would also cancel the set bonus.
(3) Is "tracking the target" an action or simply a status that can be lost? I think that to be consistent with my guesses for (1) and (2), "tracking the target" would have to be a status, not an action.
