[QUOTE="Larry Hunsaker, post: 4680940, member: 62848"] I am looking for anyone who knows if this has already been discussed or clarified, but my question is - do Bloodclaw and Reckless stack? Not on the same weapon of course, but suppose I am a ranger who wields two weapons, one with Bloodclaw and the other with Reckless. Here are their power write-ups from D&DI: [B]Bloodclaw[/B] Power (At-Will): Free Action. Use this power before making a melee attack on your turn. You take damage up to a maximum of the weapon’s enhancement bonus (a +3 weapon deals up to 3 damage to its wielder). This damage cannot be reduced or prevented in any way. If you hit, increase the damage your target takes by double the amount of damage you took, triple if you are wielding the weapon in two hands. [B]Reckless[/B] Power (At-Will): Free Action. Use this power before making a melee attack against an adjacent target. You gain a power bonus to that attack’s damage roll equal to twice this weapon’s enhancement bonus. You take a –2 penalty to AC until the end of your next turn. So am I reading this correctly: Say I wield a Bloodclaw Fullblade +6 and a Reckless Fullblade +6 (as a Bugbear). 1) If I just used the Bloodclaw power, say, would I get a +12 damage to both weapon attack hits if I used a power like Twin Strike or some other power granting a primary and off-hand attack? Even though the other weapon is not Bloodclaw, would I get this +12 each time I hit? 2) Same situation but I just use the Reckless weapon, do I get a +12 to both hits? 3) Now I use both, they grant different bonuses (one a power bonus and the other an un-named bonus) so do I deal +24 damage for each hit? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
