Favored & Enhanced Power Attack
I believe it's almost common knowledge that these two do not stack with eachother. Is it possible to code it so that they do ? And would such a change ever hope to see the light of day on BG ?

Frenzerker's Enhanced Power Attack
Ranger's Favored Power Attack
The first being correctly multiplied by the second one would result in +60 flat damage increase against favored enemies while holding a weapon with both hands. From some brief testing, it feels like the FPA damage bonus is overruling EPA.

The feats do not work the way you describe it.The Whistler wrote:Frenzerker's Enhanced Power Attack

Enchanced power attack is a static bonus. +2 for Pa +4 for IPA
So with both Enchanced and Favored you will have:
Power attack: ( 3PA +2Enhanced ) * 2Favored = 10 / 15 2handed
Imp. power attack: (6IPA +4Encahnced ) * 2Favored = 20 / 30 2handed
In a way, it does work. Otherwise it would be too powerful as in too much damage
EDIT: In short, do not consider Enchanced Power attack as an added bonus. You basically have PA (+3) or Enhanced PA (+5). Depending on which you have, that number is getting doubled by Favored PA.

Re: Favored & Enhanced Power Attack
Ah, that clears it up. I thought the formula was [3(PA)+2(EPA)]*2(2Handing)*3(FPA) but yours does make the most sense. +30 flat damage is still a lot for IPA
