07-16-07, 12:39 PM Hey, I saw a feat the other day, either in the store or in one of my books but it was in regards to adding your dex bonus to damage... I looked through some of my books and I couldn't find it so if anyone knows any feats that allow you to stack your dex bonus and strength bonus on melee damage please let me know, and what book its in :D that would give my lolth touched drow duskblade a +14 to damage with his greatsword... :D

07-16-07, 12:50 PM cool link but it doesn't answer my question... theres only a list for a feat that replaces strength with dex for damage on longswords and longspears... I'm trying to find a stacking feat... but that is a great link and it should be stickied...

That's pretty much all of them that exist in the game. The usual one is Shadow Blade (which DOES add with Strength), but is limited to Shadow Hand weapons while in Shadow Hand stances.

The closest you'd get is the Champion of Corellon Larethian, but there *might* be fluff concerns on that point.

Shadow Hand weapons being pretty much "daggers, and dagger-like weapons", your greatsword drow is SOL.

The Spiked Chain is a favored weapon and can be wielded two-handed. You'd drop a damage die and have to take a feat, though.
