#1 DaneVB Apr 07, 2015 14:18:10	I kept trying to search for Action Surge and couldn't find anything, sorry if this is a repeat.   When a level 11 fighter with 3 attacks, attacks and then uses his action surge to take another action and attack again, does action surge grant him 1 more attack or does it grant him the multiple attacks that his attack action normally grants?     Say fighter attacks 3 times with 1 attack action in combat, then uses action surge to take the attack action again.  Does he get 3 more attacks or just 1?

So a fighter 2, sorcerer 3 could cast fireball twice in a round, then quicken firebolt (since bonus action are still limited to cantrip if you cast a spell of level 1 or higher)
