I'm still waiting for your math on it.

I worked out all the numbers for Savage Attacker on a thread in the "Builds & Optimization" forums. Here's a quick link: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?477385-The-importance-of-being-a-20/page3 It technically focuses on whether it's better to take +2 Str or Savage Attacker, but...

I'm sure you're smart and don't need other people to provide data to back up your own claims.

That's an interesting assertion. Could you please provide the math to back it up? Another interesting assertion. Could you please provide an example of "smart use" that would improve the performance per attack?

Savage Attacker applies only to the weapon dice. If you use something like the rogue's Sneak Attack or the Paladin's Smite, you don't get to re-roll the values on those specific dice. A common suggestion for "fixing" Savage Attacker is to let you re-roll all the dice for the ATTACK instead of...

*sigh* OK, so I'm probably a bit obsessed at this point. I decided to check the numbers for crit on 18+ and the result is 22AC or less gets more damage out of Savage Attacker. This is the case if you're 16 Str or 18 Str (20 Str can't make the choice). I also did the calculations factoring in...

So, I have to admit that I was being a bit lazy with my previous calculations in that I didn't include the value of crit damage into the average damage. This is in no small part because they can be a pain to calculate (square the number of possible results for a standard attack), but it needed...

I see this argument a lot, but I get the feeling most people haven't actually run the numbers. Let's see what we get. :) If we assume 20 attacks (roll a d20), then we can get the average damage over those 20 attacks by multiplying the hit chance by the average damage per attack. Average...

Say you roll a d12. If you roll a 1 or 2, GWF comes into play and you re-roll it (we'll call this result A). Then you can use SA to roll all the damage again. If that rolls is a 1 or 2, you re-roll it again (which will be result B). Then you choose whether you take result A or result B...

Kithas, I agree that Savage Attacker gets a bit of a bad rap. Here are the damage calculations I did for it (hopefully they formatting will transfer reasonably well from Excel): Die Size 1d4 1d6 1d8 1d10 1d12 2d6 Avg Dmg 2.5...
