[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 9455529, member: 6795602"] [B][I]2024 Savage Attacker[/I][/B][I] - You've trained to deal particularly damaging strikes. Once per turn when you hit a target with a weapon, you can roll the weapon's damage dice twice and use either roll against the target.[/I] Note the changes from 2014, all damage die gets rolled and its when you hit the target now. It also should apply to reaction attacks. This translates into the following Damage bonuses for a single attack. 2d6 = +1.37 1d12 = +1.99 1d10 = +1.65 1d8 = +1.31 1d6 = +0.97 1d4 = +0.63 However, that damage doesn't happen unless you hit, so for DPR it's multiplied by accuracy. And since it's once per turn, it's accuracy is actually the chance you don't miss all your attacks. It also should scale with magic weapons that add dice damage. In any event it's not alot of extra damage, but it and tough are the only origin feats for backgrounds that give str and con. [/QUOTE]
