[QUOTE="RigaMortus, post: 1639926, member: 1077"] Let's say I had the following "set up": Human Fighter 6 Feats: Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, TWF, PBS, Rapid Shot, Precise Shot, Quickdraw BAB: +6/+1 Can I do the following: 1) Attack enemy with Great Axe, killing him. (1st iterrative attack) 2) Cleave into adjacent_enemy_001 with Great Axe (not killing him) 3) Great Cleave into adjacent_enemy_001 with Great Axe (killing him) 4) Great Cleave into a adjacent_enemy_002 5) Free Action drop Great Axe 6) Free Action Quickdraw Longsword, Free Action Quickdraw Shortsword 7) Attack adjacent_enemy_002 with Longsword (2nd iterattive attack) 8) Attack adjacent_enemy_002 with Shortsword (1st off-hand attack), killing enemy 9) Free Action drop Longsword 10) Free Action Quickdraw Dagger 11) Throw dagger via Rapid Shot at a new_enemy_001 What would my attacks look like? I calculate +2/-3/-3/-2 which breaks down like so (not counting Cleaves of course): +2 (primary with Great Axe) -3 (primary with Longsword, using TWF) -3 (off-hand with Shortsword, using TWF) -2 (primary with Dagger, using Rapid Shot & PBS) What about the following (similiar): Starting off using TWF, Longsword in primary hand, Shortsword in off-hand. 1) Attack enemy with Longsword (killing him) 2) Cleave into adjacent_enemy_001 w/ Longsword (not killing him) 3) Great Cleave into adjacent_enemy_001 w/ Longsword (killing him) 4) Attack adjacent_enemy_002 with Shortsword (killing him) 5) Great Cleave into adjacent_enemy_003 with Shortsword (not killing him) 6) Free Action drop Longsword; Free Action drop Shortsword) 7) Free Action Quickdraw Great Axe 8) Attack adjacent_enemy_003 (killing him) 9) Great Cleave adjacent_enemy_004 (killing him) 10) Free Action drop Great Axe 11) Free Action Quickdraw a dagger 12) Throw dagger via Rapid Shot at a new_enemy_001 What would my attacks look like? I calculate +2/+2/-3/-2 which breaks down like so (again, not counting Cleaves): +2 (primary with Longsword, using TWF) +2 (off-hand with Shortsword, using TWF) -3 (primary with Great Axe) -2 (primary with Dagger, using Rapid Shot & PBS) If I factor Power Attack in there, I assume that I'd get negatives to hit when it came time to use Rapid Shot, but not pluses to damage, correct? And I also assume Power Attack would apply (both to hit and damage) to the new melee weapons I switched to, correct? On the second example, can I Power Attack for a -2 with my Longsword/Shortsword combo, then as I Quickdraw the Great Axe, apply another -4 (for a total of -6 to hit, but +12 to damage) to the Great Axe?
