[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 3562154, member: 326"] Howdy WarDragon dude! :) Not at all, simply an excuse for you not to get too heated on the matter. We don't need another "dante's inferno" erupting over the alignment of Anubis. :p Well lets see. [B]10th-level Standard Fighter,[/B] 20 strength, +3 bastard sword Atk +17/+12, Damage 1d10+8/19-20/x2 10th-level Revised Fighter, 20 strength, +3 bastard sword Atk +16/+16, Damage 1d10+13/17-20/x2 If we power attack for the exact attack difference, then my revised fighter is 3 damage better off per round and 5 damage per hit better off before criticals are counted. [U]Conclusion:[/U] Revised 10th-level Fighter 13 points better per round and thats before taking into account superior critical hit chances. [B]15th-level Standard Fighter,[/B] 22 strength, +5 bastard sword Atk +26/+21/16, Damage 1d10+11/19-20/x2 15th-level Revised Fighter, 22 strength, +5 bastard sword Atk +20/+20/+20, Damage 1d10+18/17-20/x3 If we power attack for the exact difference, the core fighter is 3 points better off per round, although 7 worse off per hit (before we count critical hits). [U]Conclusion:[/U] Revised 15th-level Fighter 18 points better per round and thats before taking into account superior critical hit chance and multiplier. [B]20th-level Standard Fighter,[/B] 25 strength, +5 bastard sword Atk +32/+27/+22/+17, Damage 1d10+12/19-20/x2 20th-level Revised Fighter, 25 strength, +5 bastard sword Atk +22/+22/+22/+22 Damage 1d10+22/17-20/x3 If we power attack for the exact difference, the core fighter is 10 points better off per round, although 10 worse off per hit (before we count critical hits). [U]Conclusion:[/U] Revised 20th-level Fighter 30 points better per round and thats before taking into account superior critical hit chance and multiplier. ...the case for the defense* rests. *which also happens to be higher because of weapon deflect. :p See me in the courtroom above. :D [/QUOTE]
