    Default Power Attack gives -4 bonus !!!

    Is this a new bug? Or maybe just a display error? I noticed when I have Power Attack toggled on, I LOSE 5 damage according to the weapon bonus displayed by the inventory details menu.

    NOTE: The title should say -5 bonus (I don't know how to change the title)

    My demands are simple. Ducks, penguins and tortoises as pets. I'll buy hats and bow-ties for them all.

    new bug ?
    Oh, so the bonus in the display refers to the to-hit and not the damage? (Or did I mis-interpret what you're saying?)

    Maybe I'm the one who's bugged then.

    The single number you see next to "Bonus: is indeed, and always has been your "To Hit". your damage is in Parenthesis right next to "Damage:" and that does not change with P/A Toggle. Its base.

    This is the same way its always been as far as I can remember.

    Edit: looks like the damage shown is ONLY base weapon damage. DOesnt count str, pa or any other modifiers.

    Total damage bonus was shown some time ago, but it disappeared.

    It's still there...

    Go to your inventory and expand the Details tab at the bottom. Turn your PA off and on, and you'll see the change to damage where it shows your weapons.

    No, it only shows to-hit.

    Until a couple updates ago the details showed the total + to damage, then they got rid of it, probably to make it harder for players to reveal bugs. Very annoying not to be able to see it, much harder to figure out what effect influences melee dmg but not ranged dmg for example.

    Hey Mic

    Nah, until a few updates ago it worked for weapons - but not wraps. Now it works for wraps, but not weapons. As far as I can tell, anyway.

    Yea they bugged the damage display for weapons when they tried to fix handwraps a long time ago, in U14.

    They fixed the display for unarmed/handwraps.. But broke it for all weapons. Typical turbine bug fixing.

    You can still view your +dmg mod if you unequip your weapon tho, no need for wraps.

    Just kinda hard to calculate, as youll need to take the base + dmg displaed, add +50% str if thf, add double power attack, enhancement bonus, other weapon only boost, etc.
