My poit was a Chain of Blows, as defined by the rulebook, cannot apply to The Ability Promethium A chain of blows is only such if all the multiple attacks attack the same person, which has been pointed out is impossible in this case since the ability is a charge. Which is especially true if the initial attack fails.

And this changes the official answer how?

I understand what your saying, but we have an answer from a play-tester on the issue, so I don't see why your arguing against it at this point.

A Charge is a combination of a Run action and an Attack action, and there have been many instances were when something refers to an "Attack" it also includes Charge actions as well.

Case in point: Claire's Gae Bolg ability, Damien's Lightning Slash, and Piercing Weapons.

Its chain of attacks and thats just another case of poor wording. If an ability has multiple attacks it can be countered to stop it.

I'm talking about it because the answer provided by said playtester is in direct opposition with the written rules. The fact that it very clearly states that it needs to target the same person, cannot be called a translation error.

The rulebook was written before Prometheum existed, and it is a fairly unique ability with no comparable precedent.  The question about a counterattack interrupting its progress was already asked, and it was already answered by a quasi-official source.  No, it wasn't the creator; is that the issue you have with it?  As recently discovered, he works in mysterious ways.

The issue had already been resolved in Clover's thread.  Fighting it again is a reenactment; the battle has already been fought.

Well then, nothing more to be said. It is what it is.
