A question for the regulars: How often do you game?
3-4 times per month ~ 5-6 hrs per session.
Stoneshape:
1st, In standard D&D how much is that second attack worth? What about the third and fourth extra attack?
The 2nd attack is Huge in standard- especially early, Full BAB characters normally will have enough other bonuses to hit with the 2nd attack much of the time – as an example 2 full BAB PCs in my group are at +12/+7 and +11/+6 while the cleric is at +8-10 depending on buffs. The 3rd attack is useless, until you get a 4th, then the 4th is useless. For 2 weapon fighters the first -5 is actually a -7 and it will hit rarely, but can occasionally add up, esp. with SA or other bonus damage.
2nd, In standard E6 how much is that second attack worth?
Close to the same – you can get enough bonuses to make the attack important,
3rd, In standard E6 how much is that second attack worth if only the fighter could obtain it?
Way too much – Barbarians, Rangers and Paladins would be inferior to a straight fighter.
The other abilities don’t even come close to making up for it.
