Definitely working. It should show up on the first line of the damage list. So if you're using a longsword and you have 18 strength, it should look like this:

Damage: 1-8 +4 (Critical: 19-20 / x2)
If you have something in the offhand (shield, torch, another weapon).

If you activate power attack it should say the following:

Damage: 1-8 +7 (Critical: 19-20 / x2)

And then if you don't have anything in the offhand, it should be like this:

Damage: 1-8 +6 (Critical: 19-20 / x2)
Without power attack

Damage: 1-8 +12 (Critical: 19-20 / x2)
With power attack.

It should be noted that you can't power attack with light weapons and rapiers.

That's why!

"It should be noted that you can't power attack with light weapons and rapiers."

thanks for the info.

how about

halfling - using short sword and power attack?
or
gnome - using Rapier and power attack?

Power attack works with rapier only if you're a small race without monkey grip feat.
