(str 22, weapon focus)One character has a dancing weapon (+1, dancing) and a +5 weapon as his primary. (both greatswords)First round, he releases his dancing weapon and it attacks 4 times.I'll use a fairly low ac for the enemy, AC 25.The dancing weapon attacks four times.+17/+12/+7/+2, against AC 25 this means:.65*8 + .4*8 + .15*8 + .05*8 = 1.25*8 = 10 damageSecond round - Fourth roundFull attack from the character = +28/+23/+18/+13 (2d6+14, avg 21) = .95*21 + .9*21 + .65*21 + .4*21 = 60.9Dancing weapon attacks = 10 damageTotal damage from the dancing weapon = 40Total damage from the character = 182.7Total damage overall = 222.7Total gp cost = 100kSecond character, differerent weapon.+5, energy X (str 22, weapon focus), damage = 2d6+14+d6, avg = 24.5First roundMove up, swing..95*24.5 = 23.275Second through fourth rounds.95*24.5 + .9*24.5 + .65*24.5 + .4*24.5 = 71.05Total damage from the character = 236.425Total gp cost = 72kSo, for spending 28k less he does 13.725 more damage <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> And that is without any real major equipment or feat investment.now it is late, so maybe I made some math errors.. anyone see anything blatant?</blockquote>
