That doesnt make any sense. The trade-off for power attack is that you have to get a penalty to attack to get the damage, the trade-off for weapon specialization is that you have to have at least four levels of fighter and it only works for a specific weapon. Both have trade-offs and just because the trade-offs are not the same does not mean that that one is a damage boosting feat while the other is not. I think that improved natural attack use is supported by the rules and that at least some of the designers knew it would work that way. As for the rest all classes have special abilities and so those are not really the point when talking about getting enhancement bonuses. After all the fighter gets a bunch of bonus feats plus more attack bonus plus a higher hit die as well, they each get different things from their class. Oh and the fighter with power attack is not only able to catch up and pull ahead he is able to get a lot of versitility out of his choice. He can have a higher attack bonus or higher damage or both plus the ability to pick and choose whether to go very high on damage or not. As in power attack is actually a better feat overall for the fighter than improved natural weapon is for a monk in this comparison. But the point remains that the fighter basically has one feat which boosts his damage that no one else can take while there are lots of feats that boost damage that anyone can take. Plus power attack is arguably better than weapon specialization anyway because it has lesser cost prereq wise and more versitility in use. Or we could go to barbarians which are better at melee damage than fighters as well although not really for feat reasons. I just dont see how you are getting your unfair conclusion based on the arguements you have used so far.</p></blockquote><p></p>
