Air Blade (5e Feat)
From D&D Wiki
Air Blade
Prerequisites: Strength or Dexterity score of 13 or higher
This technique allows you to project forward slashing gusts of wind by making extremely fast strikes with a slashing weapon. You gain the following benefits as long as you're attacking with a melee weapon that deals slashing damage and lacks the Heavy property:
- Your melee weapon attacks have the Reach property.
- You can hurl cutting gusts of wind and make ranged attacks with your slashing weapons. These attacks reduce the damage die of your weapon by one (d10 becomes d8, d8 becomes d6, d6 becomes d4, etc.), and have a range of 20/40 ft. Nonmagical, unprotected flames are snuffed out if a cutting gust of wind enters its space.
- When wielding a weapon that deal slashing damage and lacks the Heavy property in two hands, you can forgo an attack to shove a creature within 10 ft of you that is no larger than one size category larger than you. The target must make a Strength saving throw (DC = 10 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus). On a failed save, creature take slashing damage equal to your Strength or Dexterity modifier (whichever was used to calculate the DC) and be shoved back 10 ft. On a success, creature take half as much damage on a failed one and not be shoved.
