Level 9: Brutal Strike: "If you use Reckless attack, you can forgo any Advantage on one Strength-based attack roll of your choice on your turn. The chosen attack roll mustn’t have Disadvantage. If the chosen attack roll hits, the target takes an extra 1d10 damage of the same type dealt by the weapon or Unarmed Strike, and you can cause one Brutal Strike effect of your choice. You have the following effect options. You have to use RA if you want extra damage and access to the effects. If and can make another rule ambiguous. And any makes you think you have to give up every advantage you may have. I think they mean just the RA one. Does the advantage for every enemy go away as well?
You either have advantage or you don't; it's not possible to have multiple advantages at the same time.
"Forego any advantage on the attack" is worded specifically to mean that you if you use this, you don't have advantage on the attack, regardless of where that advantage might be coming from.
It does not remove the advantage that enemies have on attacking you, because it doesn't say that it does that.

I think what he means is that you are in a situation where you are facing two different opponents. In this situation, you have, for whatever reason, you would have advantage against both of them if you chose to attack both (or clearly against one, if you chose to attack just that one). If you, via Brutal Strike and Reckless Attack, you give up advantage against one of those targets, doing the extra damage and, if you so choose, doing one Brutal Strike effect of your choice, do you lose advantage on the second one, should you choose to use a second available attack action to strike that second target.
I would say not. Actually, based on that wording, I would say you don't even give up advantage on any subsequent attacks you make that round on the first target, too, since it is "you can forgo any Advantage on one Strength-based attack roll,' i.e., just on that one roll.
Since this 2024 thread has been revived, I would say as Monk player, if I ever decided to dip into Barbarian , it would be for Rage. A Monk resistant to BPS? Oh yes! It's would be like those old school Kung Fu movies guys with the "iron skin". The extra damage is a bonus.

That's correct, you only lose advantage on that one attack you're using Brutal Strike with, not any other attacks you might make.
