Bashes are very variable creatures. I poked around our records a bit, and there weren't any comments about changing it in recent times. We're pretty good about leaving at least some one-liners in our records every time we touch something.

Mobs have been doing that for years. I remember noticing it when playing a paladin, which is something I only did once, long before legacies and the bash tonedown.

That was my question. But Valg says it's ok for pcs to be able to bash for a four round lag. So there you have it.

The rest is a gameplay question now, i.e. is it right that bash can do that.

That could be a 3 and a bit round bash though, in your log. As in, wimpy could have allowed you to flee, perhaps, if you were hurt enough.

HAR!
