On this board, there seems to be a group who are condescending towards those who like to play options such as templated characters, use non-core material like Savage Species, play high magic, or play in the Forgotten Realms. I have Races of Faerun and we use Savage Species. That means this change will be felt in our campaign since there are a few PC's in a few of our campaigns that have Power Attack and templates, so their already high damage output just went up a notch.I also use alot of leveled giants, ogres, minotaurs, and other such creatures in adventures who are now going to be much tougher due to the change to Power Attack. It will make it a little harder to balance the encounter considering the amount of extra damage they will be doing. Since dice don't operate according to statistics on a battle-to-battle basis, only over the course of multiple battles and hundreds if not thousands of rolls. As well as not taking into account crits and variable AC's, I think the average damage increase is going to be much higher than th listed statistical analysis suggests.</blockquote>
