P Plissken Explorer May 22, 2010 #1 Say a monster has 3 strength. That's a bonus of -4 right? But its attack says: Sting +6 (1d4-2) Apply the -4 penalty or not? (So it essentially becomes Sting +2)

R Runestar First Post May 22, 2010 #2 The +6 likely already factors in the -4 str penalty (or more possibly, ignored that via weapon finesse). -2 is a tad odd (should be 1d4-4), though I suppose it could be getting an enhancement bonus to damage from somewhere?
