What's the deal with precision damage and Precise strike?

[Where is my drink]

(read that topic in a jerry seinfeld voice, heh)

I am an inquisitor class and I need to choose a teamwork feat, I dont have a high enough BAB to choose "Outflank", so i was thinking of choosing precise strike. I do not understand what exactly precision damage means... looked around the web, searched this forum etc..

it says-

"Whenever you and an ally who also has this feat are flanking the same the creature, you deal an additional 1d6 points of precision damage with each successful melee attack. This bonus damage stacks with other sources of precision damage, such as sneak attack. This bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit."

So does this simply mean that I get an additional 1D6 of damage on the monster? Or is there something specific I am missing? I know that a rogues sneak attack is precision damage, and some other types, but im still a little thick as to what it actually MEANS.. heh

any help is much appreciated.

Yes, that's essentially what it means.

You'll deal an additional 1d6 damage, if both you and an ally with the same feat flank the creature.

The only reason it states that the damage is "precision damage" is because of other abilities/items/etc that may reference that kind of damage.

so if i have solo tactics with this, as long as i am flanking, i get an addition 1D6. as well as the regular +2 to damage?

pretty sweet i must say..

Flanking adds +2 to the attack roll, not to the damage roll.

But otherwise, yes.

Precision based means that creatures immune to crits/sneak attacks or precision based damage are immune.

I also believe that you lose it if the creature is concealed/totally concealed.
