The Echo Knight fighter's Unleash Incarnation feature states (EGtW, p. 183):
[…] Whenever you take the Attack action, you can make one additional melee attack from the echo’s position.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier. […]
The Legion of One feature states (EGtW, p. 184):
You can use a bonus action to create two echoes with your Manifest Echo feature, and these echoes can coexist. […]
If you have created 2 echoes, can each of them be given an extra attack per Attack action? Or does only one of them gain that ability? (Assuming you have enough of a Constitution bonus to match the number of attacks needed.)
Example: My Constitution score is 20 (a +5 modifier). I use a bonus action to summon two echoes. I then take the Attack action and then use Action Surge to take an additional Attack action. I spend two uses of Unleash Incarnation, so that Echo-1 gets two attacks, one for each Attack action taken. Can I spend two more uses of Unleash Incarnation to give Echo-2 two additional attacks?
Best Answer
The knight gains the ability to make an extra attack, not the echoes.
The echo knight is who is granted the extra attack by Unleash Incarnation and the feature says this extra attack is granted, if the knight decides to use the feature, when she takes the Attack action.
The feature also allows for the knight to choose to make that additional attack (and not the knight's normal attacks) from the echo's location.
The important point here is that the echo itself is never granted an attack.
When the Unleash Incarnation feature is later improved by the Legion of One feature, the echo knight still only has the one extra attack but, owing to the fact that Legion of One allows the knight to have two echoes simultaneously, the knight can choose which echo's position to make that attack from.
The knight can make additional extra attacks from Unleash Incarnation only if it can take the Attack action additional times. The obvious way of doing this is through the fighter's Action Surge ability. Crucially, the same limitation applies: each additional time the Attack action is taken, only one extra attack is granted.
Quick side note: Haste would not grant the opportunity to use Unleash Incarnation because the spell explicitly limits the attack action it can grant to a single attack. See Does the Echo Knight fighter's Unleash Incarnation feature add another attack to the additional Attack action from the Haste spell? for more info.
To spell it out more directly, a fighter of 18th level would typically have 3 attacks per Attack action. Using Unleash Incarnation with the Attack action would give the fighter a 4th attack. If the knight Action Surges, it could do that again for 8 total attacks, excluding any potential attack granted by its bonus action.
Note that if the knight did have an attack available through a bonus action (such as from the Great Weapon Master or Polearm Master feats), this would not allow the knight to use Unleash Incarnation yet again, because that bonus attack is not granted by "taking the Attack action", which is the necessary prerequisite for getting Unleash Incarnation's extra attack.
