04-04-07, 02:25 PM If you have access to Tome of Battle you can take the feat Shadow Blade. It let's you add your Dex mod to damage with a Shadow Hand weapon (such as a short sword) while you are in a Shadow Hand stance.

I believe the Champion of Correllon Larethian PrC from Races of the Wild also lets you add your Dex mod to damage, but you have to be an elf to qualify for this PrC.

I hope this helps.

I'm sure there are, but I surely don't know where to find them. Swashbuckler lets you add Int to damage, if that's a stat you can afford to bump.

Personally, I dislike making a character with Str lower than 15 (unless its a monk) because I find carrying capacity becomes an issue too quickly.

YAY People use the index (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/lists/feats)!!!

(Sorry for the spam like posts but the more people that know about these kinds of tools the better!)

Also I've never heard of that feat so I too am curious.

Superior Weapon Finesse is from an AEG book "Feats" (third-party sourcebook) that allows Dex to be added to damage. It makes no mention of replacing Str, nor does it mention the Dex bonus to damage being precision-based.
