Question, would an echo knight’s echo provide flanking advantage? I’d argue yes as it can clearly threaten the enemy, but I’m curious of your thoughts on behalf of a rouge looking to multiclass in a game I DM. A rogue with an echo sounds bad ass. As the echo is technically not an “ally”, but a feature, it would not grant a flanking bonus, should you use the rule.

Is it intended for an echo knight to gain flanking advantage from his manifest echo? Since the echo is a feature, and not an “ally” creature, technically it does not flank.
