Uses a scythe (two-handed) Using a two-handed weapon (+13 damage for x1.5 Str)... And is assumed to always take a 5-point Power Attack (included in the entry for +5) Totalling the damage to +18. But wait! Shouldn't the power-attack bonus be +10? Thus, shouldn't the modified damage be +23 (instead of +18)? I only ask because this was not caught in the errata, and they don't use a "normal" scythe, but rather an entropic blade. I wasn't sure if there was some other rule assumed in the entry that I didn't know about...

obrysii 05-15-07, 01:19 PM	You mean a "typo" ? Is it wielding the scythe in both hands?
Thiez 05-15-07, 02:38 PM	Yes, it is. In fact, it is probably wielding an oversized scythe thanks to its 'master of the scythe' ability (or whatever it's called). Anyway, you're probably right. It should be a +10 bonus to damage from Power Attack (it even says so in the description text they put 5 points in PA and get 5 damage, so one of the writers just had a brainfart).
RobbyPants 05-16-07, 01:51 PM	You mean a "typo" ? LOL. I typoed typo... Is it wielding the scythe in both hands? Yes. If not, then the issue would be the +13 damage as opposed to +9 (for a Str of 29). Yes, it is. In fact, it is probably wielding an oversized scythe thanks to its 'master of the scythe' ability (or whatever it's called). Anyway, you're probably right. It should be a +10 bonus to damage from Power Attack (it even says so in the description text they put 5 points in PA and get 5 damage, so one of the writers just had a brainfart). Thanks. I was pretty sure this was the case. I just wanted to point it out to see if anyone else noticed and/or had some additional insight.
