[QUOTE="guachi, post: 7233837, member: 6785802"] Level 11 fighters would probably have a 20 main stat by level 11. You'll have 3 ASIs and one goes to the feat so you get two for your main stat. Also, the bonus action attack for the GWM fighter will grant a minimum damage increase roughly equal to the attacker's crit percentage. Three attacks for a Champion gives a 27.1% chance of getting at least one critical so instead of 3 attacks a round you'll get 3.27 attacks a round for a 9% increase. This does not, of course, account for the times you'll drip a foe to 0 HP nor the ability of the GWM fighter to use something like Riposte to get another attack. Though both the SS and GWM fighters could just as easily spend all their dice on Precision to ensure the -5/+10 attack lands. All told, if you take the bonus action attack into account, the GWM fighter is probably adding 20% more damage from that attack. I've done some calculations and have them sitting around somewhere that attempt to figure out how often a GWM fighter might expect to get that bonus attack. [/QUOTE]
