Supreme Power Attack and Favored Power Attack (Undead)

[Karina]

I want to create a character that can really rekt undead. Will those effect stack? Favored Power Attack increase bonus damage from power attack by 300% and Supreme Power attack give +24 damage when using Improved Power Attack and 2h weapon. Does this mean i will deal extra 72 damage to undead?

no i don't think it calculates it the way logicaly you think it does. Favored increased bonus damage by the regular power attack damage, not any adjusted feats, frenzied beserker, etc. So if i remember it won't be 300% of +24 damage which is what your thinking.

It will be something like 300% of the regular power attack damage with weapons (3 or 6). So using 2 handed weapons will be +18 (6x300%).

If i remember, its been a while, so at best your attacks with both supreme power attack and favored power attack would be +42 (24 from supreme, 18 from favored), and actually i think the nwn2 mechanics aren't even that logical, i think its actually around +33 damage instead of the +42 based on how the game factors. Just based off some forum experiments on the combining of power attack feats others have done.

So no, not +72 damage. At best, it will be +42, and i think its really much lower due to nwn2 mathmatics in calculating stuff.

I see. Me and pal started a new a game and he want to play a rogue, so i designed a character that compensate his innability to do hidden attacks against undead/elementals/golems. Defender of the Forest- ruthless wood elf ranger with desire to exterminate unnatural enemys of the land. I can always go paladin or priest but this is too obvious.
