Two weapon hit and damage calculations

[bloripope]

Hi Everyone...sorry for what is probably a simple question but I'm really confused about how to properly calculate my hit/dmg for two weapon fighting.

Would you mind looking at this to make sure I calculated this properly?

Thanks....Jack

Here's what I'm working with:

Fighter (Level 6 using Longsword and +1 Combat Light Steel Shield)
20 STR (+5)
BAB (+6)
Feat - Two Weapon Fighting (+2 to hit Primary/+6 to hit Off Hand)
Feat - Weapon Focus - Long Sword (+1 to hit))
Feat - Weapon Specialization - LongSword (+2 damage)
Feat - Power Attack (-2 to hit / +4 DMG primary / +2 DMG Of Hand)

******************************************************************

Cumulative Hit Calculations: Longsword | +1 Shield
---------------------------
Base Two Weapon Penalties: Primary Hand -6 | Off Hand -10

2 Weapon Fighting (+2/+6): Primary Hand -4 | Off Hand -4

Light Off Hand Weapon (+2) Primary Hand -2 | Off Hand -2

Power Attack (-2): Primary Hand -4 | Off Hand -4

Weapon Focus LS (+1): Primary Hand: -3 | Off Hand -4

BAB (+6): Primary Hand: +3 | Off Hand +2

+1 Combat Shield (+1): Primary Hand: +3 | Off Hand +3

STR 20 (+5): Primary Hand: +8 | Off Hand +5

Total To Hit Bomus: Primary Hand: +8 | Off Hand +8

******************************************************************

Cumulative DMG Calculation: Longsword | +1 Shield
---------------------------

STR (+5) Primary Hand: +5 | Off Hand +5

Weapon Spec. LS (+2): Primary Hand: +7 | Off Hand +5

Power Attack (+4 / +2): Primary Hand: +11 | Off Hand +7

+1 Combat Shield (+1): Primary Hand: +11 | Off Hand +8

Total Damage Bomus: Primary Hand: +11 | Off Hand +8

******************************************************************

Totals:

Longsword: +8 to hit & +11 damage

+1 Combat Shield: +8 to hit & +8 damage

Off-hand attacks only add half strength to damage rather than full strength (+2 instead of +5 in your case), so the damage for the shield would be at +5 rather than +8.

Otherwise it looks right.

You need the Double Slice feat to deal full STR with off-hand attacks.

Caveat: I have no idea what the "Combat" property does. If that property allows full STR with off-hand shield attacks, then everything is as it should be.

Edit: By the way, if the longsword is masterwork you'll have another +1 to hit with it.

Why are you only adding +2 to hit from your str mod? Basically, you cut Str in half for your to hit but left it at full for your to damage; that's backwards. It's full Str mod to hit, half Str mod to damage.

He actually did do that part right (the total to-hit for the shield includes +5 for STR), but wrote it down wrong :)

Thank you guys so much for the feedback...I really appreciate the help :) Basically the Combat Shield just gives +1 to hit and +1 to damage...a home brew DM thing.

So making the changes...this should be correct:

Fighter (Level 6 using Longsword and +1 Combat Light Steel Shield)
20 STR (+5)
BAB (+6)
Feat - Two Weapon Fighting (+2 to hit Primary/+6 to hit Off Hand)
Feat - Weapon Focus - Long Sword (+1 to hit))
Feat - Weapon Specialization - LongSword (+2 damage)
Feat - Power Attack (-2 to hit / +4 DMG primary / +2 DMG Of Hand)
