Hi Playground
So im playing a lvl 12 aincients paladin with a glaive. I have great weapon fighter, and greatweapon master, and polearm master.
So, my first question is; can I use my glaive on 5ft, and if yes, where does it say so?
is my bonus attack also reach?
and if I use my great weapon fighter, I reckon it works on the bonus attack I get?
And ofcourse my divine fighter power works on all of this aswell
so lets say Im lvl 12 and do massive attacks:
So how would an attack sequence look like forme ?

1: Yes, it is part of the reach property.
2: Yes, you are attacking wih a reach weapon.
3: yup, you are attacking with a heavy weapon on both accounts.
4: Yes but only 1.round or turn, whatever it says in the description.
But do recall, ask your DM, they have final say.

I assumed "divine fighter power" meant "Improved Divine Smite" which works on every melee attack, as it is not limited to once per turn/round.

That's why I added in the "whatever it says in the description".

Action attack: 2no attacks with the glaive. Divine Smite if you hit.
If you crit or kill:
Bonus action attack (great weapon master): 1d10+Str. Divine Smite.
If you don't crit or kill:
Bonus action attack (polearm master): 1d4+Str. Divine Smite.
All attacks are reach, reroll 1s & 2s and any attack may be +10dmg/-5hit if you want.
Assuming 20 Str and no crits or other bonuses, max damage is 75 slashing plus 120 radiant.
