Crusader's Flurry

[The Dread Prince]

Alright so I saw in an older thread that someone mentioned that yes you get the 3/1 from PA but you don't gain anything more then your strength damage even to a two handed being wielded by both hands.

Why is this?
If my God's favored weapon is a Greatsword, or Greataxe and I flurry with it, why would I not add Str x1.5 to damage on top of the Power Attack damage.

Btw with flurry with Power Attack, at level one that makes it -2/-2 at level 1 right?

From Flurry of Blows:
A monk applies his full Strength bonus to his damage rolls for all successful attacks made with flurry of blows, whether the attacks are made with an off-hand or with a weapon wielded in both hands.

Flurry of Blows specifically sets the STR bonus for using a two-handed weapon to x1. If you want the full 1.5 damage, you can choose not to make a flurry.

If you want an explanation based on physics, this makes sense as your are swinging faster so you don't have full follow-through on each attack.

It is your normal attack bonus (BAB+STR+FEATS+ENHANCEMENT+ETC) then -3 / -3 (-1 for power attack, -2 for flurry).

So if you had a 10 STR, and no feats or other bonuses and your BAB was +1, then yes, it would be -2 / -2.
