Thanks in advance!

I could see it annoying them, and I understand why those 5th level ranger and paladin spells have the exxtra omph they have. But over all, i dont think its worth making a fuss over really

Oh no, a Bard can use Swift Quiver at level 10 to make 3-4 attacks (not to mention having to use their bonus action to do it), the game's broken!
