Hello everyone, considering the new wording of Polearm Master in this section: "Reactive Strike. While you’re holding a Quarterstaff, a Spear, or a weapon that has the Heavy and Reach properties, you can take a Reaction to make one melee attack against a creature that enters the reach you have with that weapon."
And considering it is VERY different from the old one, where it mentions specifically "against a creature that enters the reach" and not "other creatures provoke an opportunity attack from you when they enter the reach", does it mean that if I am moving and I end up in a space where a creature is in my reach I can attack with my reactive strike?
I'm asking this because I cannot find anywhere a rule that says that it's the creature that has to move. And technically if I move a creature ENTERS my reach.
