Cleave GCleave question

[CrimsonEagle]

Just a quick question.

When using a 2 handed weapon, if you have the cleave/gcleave and the 2 handed fighting feats, will you generate glancing blows off from your cleave hits?

I assumed that this is the way that it would work, but now I'm not so sure.

I was messing around with a low level build I've been contemplating. My first 3 feats (lvl 1 and 2) were Power attack, cleave, and the first in the two handed fighting chain.

The theory was, Say I hit 4 mobs, I would get full damage+glancing per each hit.

Instead what I see is only full damage, no glancing blows involved.

If this is the case, I'll have to rethink things.

Ty in advance for any response.

i could be wrong, but glancing blows are only generated on certain attack #s in the chains of attack
so i don't think glancing blows would apply to the attacks from cleave/greater cleave/whirlwind

Well that blows.

Ok, tyvm for the reply.

You get a full attack on everything in the attack arc. This is way better than glancing blows.

Except your main target, which you loose a glansing blow on.

Are you certain this is correct?

I can confirm that you do not get glancing blows with cleave/great cleave. I haven't used whirlwind at all, but I assume it's the same.
