[QUOTE="Korak, post: 1390442, member: 9781"] Sure. Level 16 Melee type, with 16 base attack, total attack bonus of 30, swinging a keen shocking burst greataxe for normal d12+18 damage at an AC28 target subject to crits and with no electrical resistance. Assuming Power Attack is taken, the expected damage without power critical on a hasted full attack is 143.... with power critical 183. That is a very average type build, not specifically designed to take advantage of bonus critical damage effects, or have a stupendously good threat range. I've attached my two handed power attack optimizer spreadsheet with those numbers plugged in. Simply switch the power critical cell from 0 to 1 to see the difference. It's not the most user-friendly sheet at the moment, but it is mostly for my use. Feel free to check the math. Actually, what I uploaded was from before I switched all the way from greatsword to greataxe, to get the exact example I used above, change [B]Average Weapon Damage 7 [/B]to a 6.5 and change [B]Average Bonus Critical Damage 5.5[/B] to 11.
