Or, if he's a dex-based fighter, until dex 20. And a rogue has little reason not to go dex-based, given their armor limitations and proficient weapons. Not the least because the Rogue's stealth is also dex based as is the acrobatics he uses to climb; the fighter gets to push people around with strength, and usually also climbing and leaping, and so there are non-violent uses for both.The cases where damage is needed most, the power  attack feats are worse damage per attack, because the AC's are one the order of 10+AttackMod... and the penalty of 5 reduces the value of that bonus damage.Plus, except for the Rogue, ALL classes have only about 1-2 rounds of nova damage.</blockquote>
