Power attack

Aelia Jusa · 10-09-2002, 05:32 PM

I don't get it. What's with the levels?

Also I've tried using stunning attack with my monk. But when I click on it he just stands around. What's up with that?

The levels for power attack let you choose how much you want to add to damage at the expense of accuracy.

If you take 1, then your to-hit goes down by one, and your damage increases by 1. If you take 5, then to-hit drops by 5, and damage goes up by 5.

Once you choose power attack (and the level you want), it stays in effect until you either turn it off or choose a different level.

I think I know what you're saying about stunning attack...

When you click stunning attack, you have to select a target to use it on. I'm pretty sure you click it, then select the character to hit, it should have the sword icon over the enemy

Yeah only then he never stuns anyone just seems to attack normally. Maybe he is trying to stun but just really bad at it. Sounds like my monk, big doofus

Remember that the stun attempt is on one attack only; if that's a miss, nothing will happen. Also, the target is allowed a fortitude saving throw to avoid the stun. Your monk may just be unlucky in his attempts.
