A normal hit would do 6 from weapon damage and 4 from weapon specialization doing 10 hit points damage per hit and 20 per hit on a crit and he should easily make the threat confirmation rolls so average damage in 10 rounds with a long sword would be 210 for the first and second attacks. Oops, forgot power attack. At 18th level with a total attack bonus of +21 you can power attack for 11 and not have it effect your 1st and 2nd attacks so that will actually be 21 hit points of damage per hit and 42 on a crit for 483 just for the 1st and 2nd attacks over ten rounds.For the 3rd and 4th attacks you miss 25% and 50% of the time respectively. You would crit 4 more time and for arguments sake you would miss the confirmation 2 times. That should be another 315 of damage from your 3rd and 4th attacks, do 152 for a total of 349. not including possible cleave attacks for a total of 798 in ten rounds.So, a 18th level 3.5 using the better feats of 3.5 (from the source books, not obscure supplement books) could kill about 7 or 8 18th level 1.0s before dieing himself.I think my math is right, but that is why I am posting this, so others may offer their advice.Anyone care to figure out what would happen if they used Two Handed Swords?</blockquote>
