Reading Tales of the Avenger again, you're right, I read it wrong.

2021-05-20 16:02:16 +0000 UTCTwo small nitpicks... 1) Extra Guidances do have diminishing returns, true. But due Guidance being concentration, you get extra benefit out of having two a decent number of times even out of combat (group checks, coordinated actions, ...) If you anticipate a coming combat, it's even better, as it can boost initiative in particular, or a number of combar related skill checks as well. 2) "Tales of the Avenger" for me reads like the Bard puts it on a target, and if the target _gets hit_ there is retribution damage. That gives it a higher power ceiling, but on average makes it less useful than being triggered by the target hitting an enemy.
