[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8609360, member: 23751"] All that matters is that you hit one addition time per 20 swings, which for the vast majority of players is going to be 1 extra hit per 5 combats on average or 2.5 combats on average if you've reached an extra attack. If you are a fighter class in one of those uncommon groups that goes above level 7 or 8, then you will eventually get a bit better than that. If you have proficiency +2 and a 14 strength, you are going to hit an AC of 14 on a 10 or higher. That means that over those 20 rounds you will miss 9 times and hit 11 times. Raise that strength to 16 and you miss 8 times and hit 12 times. Big woopty doo. Total extra damage with a d8 weapon is going to be 7.5 for that extra hit + 11 more points of damage spread over 5 fights. Big ole yawn from me. The damage it adds is trivial and it won't be noticeable. [/QUOTE]
