This spell specifies that both characters use a shared initiative roll, and then if attacking the same opponent share attack rolls as well. Great, a very useful way to crit-seek and obtain more hits in general. The weird thing is that the 2 characters involved are unlikely to have identical initiatives so one will always?? act first.So imagine that both characters are full attacking a foe, 2 rolls are made and a crit results...the foe is dropped (magine that the second character has not even taken his 5 foot step yet but certainly intends to attack the 'same' foe. This process could concievably repeat before the second character can make any attacks!?
So how do people use this spell? Does the perfect coordination mentioned in the spell over-ride the initiative rules [even the spell doesnt seem to suggest that as characters use their own initiative modifiers...}
I must be misunderstanding the spell so any help would be appreciated!

The last post is how I would run the situation. Someone has to delay and then they would act on the same count.
Aha thanks,with all the time I spend on these forums and still..."search function" Apologies!
