Shard O'Glase said:I keep seeing power attack mentioned in this thread. It has been my impression form the various math magicians on this board that power attack is a sub par feat, and that the extra damage you do does not compenate for the increased number of misses. It has ben my impression that the entire purpose of poer attack was to give you the pre-req for cleave which is a good feat. So waht am I missing fro so many people to be saying take power attack.![]()
That's your error! Don't apply math to power attack!


No, seriously: My bladesinger has Power Attack, and uses it (almost) all the time. I usually can hit with most of my attacks, even with power attack active, and so it increases my damage potential. I often also use True Strike to improve one of the attacks (often the last one), and apply Power Attack massively. Combine that with power critical for an almost guaranteed crit, and you really rock.
