Actually, the program does do sneak attack and elemental/burst. Burst is never as interesting as two elemental attacks. 6th level rogue, 18 strength(!), +1 longsword, +1 shortsword, focus, focus, ambidexterity, two-weapon fighting, +4d6 sneak attack = ac 15: 31.9 ac 20: 20.5 ac 25: 9.1 Not...

I've written a pretty cool program that can calculate the exact expected (statistical average) damage for a melee fighter with any base attack, strength bonus, weapon, and most feats and weapon magic abilities. I think that this can be very helpful when discussing game balance. To get you...
