Design Note: Battle Master Updates Here are the main updates in this subclass since the 2014 Player’s Handbook:

• Know Your Enemy now allows you to know a creature’s damage resistances, immunities, and vulnerabilities as a Bonus Action.
• Relentless now allows you to use a Maneuver once per turn without expending a Superiority Die, but that free Maneuver uses a d8.
