My Sergeant is going the dual wield chain sword route and I have a question about the Counter Attack talent.
I currently counter vs 79 (49 base, 10 thanks to balanced chainsword and 20 on skill) and the free attack from Counter Attack is starting to look really attractive right now.
The exact text is as follows:
After successfully parrying an opponent’s attack, the character may immediately make an attack against that opponent using the weapon with which they parried as a free action, even though it is not their turn. This attack suffers a –20 penalty and may not be combined with any ability which allows more than one hit or attack such as Lighting Attack or Two-Weapon Fighting.
The question is as follows: do I roll versus 49 + 10 - 20 (base + standard attack - penalty)? Or do I roll versus 49 - 20 (base - penalty)?
