Enlarge person puts you at 4d8, each size category increase moves you two spots up the chart so if you use strong jaw after that 4d8 goes to 6d8 which goes to 8d8

so lvl 20 monk enlarges with strong jaw will do 8d8 per hit

Oh two spots on the chart? Good to know. Thanks for that, I was thinking each size bump was only one on the chart.


Thank you guys very much for the help! So the source of the bonus doesn't matter, its just like magic items vs spells vs feats etc. Insight bonuses don't stack, dodge bonuses do, size increases don't.

Awesome, and tyvm!


Thanks for the quick replies

@ Brain in a Jar

To make sure I understand, Enlarge Person, which is an actual size change, makes me 4d8. Then I could only benefit from one 'damage as though x size' effect. So I would either take 'Impact Enchant' or 'Lead Blades' or 'Strong Jaw', since all of them are damage as though x size categories bigger.

Right? Or am I wrong somewhere.

If my understanding is correct, my enlarged monk (to large) deals 4d8 which Strong Jaw increases to 6d8?

And on a different topic, what about feats and spells? Hypothetically (not looking at actual numbers, just idea), lets say a druid has 4d8 on his natural attack, takes improved natural attack feat, and then casts strong jaw. They are both increase size category effect, but since one of them is a feat does that matter?


Hello everyone!

I have a question about how damage increases by size. I have seen a couple (well, more than a couple) threads about similar things, but I want to ask about this specific instance.

Monk, level 20. Human. 2d10 unarmed strike damage.

Add Enlarge Person, now flags as large size monk - 4d8 per monk rules.

Lead Blades spell (some contention if this works on monks, for intents of this thread let us say it does) - what does this go to? Lead Blade's chart doesn't continue past 4d8. Some tables show 6d8 (Bestairy chart, in (http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2qwfo?Can-we-please-get-an-FAQ-posted-for-dama ge)), another shows 8d6 (Improved natural attack table, same thread). I am unsure

And to make things more fun, lets add on strong jaw. Now by my reckoning, you were dealing damage as huge after leaf blades, and this increases by 2 sizes. What do?

All said and done, I need to know what table to use for this. I found the faq, but was confused by it. Maybe I just need clarification.

Thanks ahead of time!
