Guide's Warning —
Guiding Words — The guide points out a weakness of a creature within 30 feet. Until the start of the guide's next turn, the guide and all allies that can hear the guiding words gain a +1 circumstance bonus to attack rolls against that creature, and the guide's Strikes deal an extra 1d4 precision damage to that creature.
WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLANDThe guide's audible-range buff requires a stable frontline that the Anvil provides while the guide supports from behind the formation.
SniperLANDThe attack bonus from Guiding Words benefits the Sniper's precision strikes, and staying within the thirty-foot audible range keeps the Sniper buffed without direct engagement.
FlankerLANDThe circumstance bonus from Guiding Words stacks with flanking, making joint attacks on the designated target especially effective.
PUNISHES
✖ clumping✖ stealth
Stacking multiple Menders without a durable frontline leaves the party vulnerable while competing for the same audible-buff positioning.
