Question.
4E Fighter's Combat Challenge text includes this:
"Every time you attack a target, whether the attack hits or misses, you can choose to mark that target."
Form of Mountain's Thunder, a Warden daily, says this:
"Once per round when you hit an enemy with a melee attack, each enemy marked by you takes damage equal to your Strength modifier."
So what happens when a fighter multi-classing this ability attacks a previously unmarked target? Does the mark apply before the daily effect goes off, thus causing the extra damage to *always* have the chance to occur on any hit? Or is the mark applied after the originating attack completes?
Basically, when is a fighter's mark applied compared to the action that allows it to be placed?
Thanks!
