    Default Is There a BAB Cap?

    If I were to reincarnate as a fighter and reach lvl20 for the second time, would I have a BAB of 21 or does it cap at 20?

    Base Attack Bonus.

    1 BAB per level, max.

    20 levels, max.

    From what I understand you get a BAB +1 for fighter reincarnating. That is what I am referring to. Can you have a 21 BAB then?

    You get +1 to hit, NOT BAB+1.

    Big difference.

    To explain the difference:

    Base Attack Bonus adds to your To-Hit. It also has a hidden effect of increasing your swing speed (very slightly) and also allows you to take certain feats that have prerequisite amounts of BAB.

    To-Hit bonuses do just the first of those.

    I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.
