Weapon Focus improvement

[Deussu]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to start a thread like this, but I couldn't find any better under design forums.

Many would argue the usefulness of Weapon Focus. Granted, on earlier levels the +1 is proportionally better, but wanes after just a few levels. At level 11 a fighter with moderate power is not dependant on Weapon focus, it's merely the requirement to other feats. To make the feat more appeal better and make it function better at higher levels, I propose a small change.

Instead of giving a static +1 bonus with one weapon, instead give this +1 bonus per attack in a full-attack action. Thus, a character with BAB +6 (2 attacks) would get +2, BAB +11 would get +3, and BAB +16 would get +4.

How'd that sound?

That sounds like a start, because the "weapon familiarity" for the fighter will give him too much of an advantage over other melee classes and thats not a good thing IMO. Since there are two levels of Weapon Focus I would add the bonus at +11 BAB, so you could get +4 only from having both WF and improved WF.
