[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 2208737, member: 2011"] Actually, in this example, you are shortchanging the Cleave feat. The reason you got most of your additional attacks is due both to PA and to Cleave, not just due to PA. You needed both to be successful. Plus, Weapon Specialization and Weapon Focus didn't hurt your chances either. So yes, certain combinations of feats can be very nice. My psion has Martial Weapon: Greatsword, Psionic Weapon, and Psionic Meditation which allow her to attack for 4D6+4 nearly every round (without taking a minus to hit like Power Attack ;)), 4D6+7 if she throws up Animal Affinity Str (which she has never actually done). She has used Metamorphosis to turn into a Troll, so she should use her (enlarged?) Greatsword with that form to do 2D8+2D6+10 (4D6+10 if the Greatsword does not actually enlarge with Metamorphosis, the power does not explicitly states that it does, but it does allow you to continue to use/wear equipment, so that implies that all equipment changes size). Btw, I once had a character "in the zone" for about 4 gaming sessions. I made almost every attack roll (I think I only missed one or two in 6 combats or so). The DM then killed off the character (not with combat, he overwhelmed him with opponents and said he was just dead, worse terrible DM ruling gaming experience I ever had). Also, I think doubling the damage for two handed PA in 3.5 was a mistake. 1.5 times was sufficient. [/QUOTE]
