Combat is a winding river—one which oftentimes flows too slowly for your liking. As a bonus action each turn, you can shift your focus and weight, becoming poised for one of the following events until the start of your next turn:
- Poised to Repel (melee). You gain advantage against the next melee attack made against you.
- Poised to Deflect (ranged). While holding a weapon, you gain advantage against the next ranged attack made against you.
- Poised to Pounce (with opportunity). You gain advantage on your next opportunity attack. Against a creature who has taken the Disengage action and is leaving your reach, you may still attempt an opportunity attack with disadvantage.
Upon ending your current turn with a prepared Ready action, you will no longer be poised as an Eager Combatant.
