Attack:
+1 Valorous Falchion
+10, 2d4+6, 18-20/x2 (Criticals multiply power attack damage, correct?)
Double Damage on a Charge

Feats
Power Attack
Cleave
Improved Bull Rush
Intimidating Rage
Leap Attack
Level 6 = Shock Trooper

I have a few questions on the stacking of Power Attack/Charging Damage, and how the feats stack.
  • Power Attack for Full(5): 2d4+13 damage.
  • With Leap Attack (Which requires a 20 foot running start, +10 feet of jumping, correct?), the Power attack damage is x3. So -5 To Hit, +7 from power attack, x3 = 21. So total now is 2d4+27.
  • So now the Dice are rolled and then Valorous is calculated. Assuming average is rolled on the dice(2d4 = 5), Damage = 32, x2 = 64.
  • On a critical, all damage is doubled, correct? Meaning 64 x 2 = 128 damage.


It feels much too powerful at level 5, but my DM has allowed all of the parts separately and looked them over as a whole, so I wanted to be sure on the damage.

Apologies for bumping but it hit page two and I kind of need an answer while my DM is still online.

Just a quick double check and corrections(if any) is all I need.
