Sounds like from what he says there that you do get the ability modifier added to damage. Is that definitely correct?
It's just that I'm planning on playing as a warlord so I can imagine a few rounds where I might just be doing a basic attack. Would be nice if my ability modifier was added to the damage as well
Thanks again.
Just for clarity's sake (since it is a frequently asked question): You add your ability modifier to the damage of a basic attack. You do not add 1/2 your level to the damage. Just the unmodified ability modifier.
