Benefit: Whenever you use two hands to throw a one-handed or two-handed weapon, you gain a bonus on damage rolls equal to 1-1/2 times your Strength bonus. Using two hands to throw any weapon requires only a standard action for you. If you also have the Quick Draw feat, you can throw two-handed weapons at your full normal rate of attacks.
Normal: You add your Strength bonus on thrown weapon damage, regardless of available hands. Throwing a two-handed weapon is a full-round action.
The way I read this, not necessarily how it's intended, is that it adds your Str + 1/2 modifier to damage with one- or two-handed thrown weapons. It doesn't say it you get Strength + 1/2 instead of Strength. Obviously this seems like an oversight and I haven't found anything addressing it my search of topics.
Now some people could claim that the 'Normal' text implies something, but it really doesn't. For instance, if the wording were changed to 'you gain a bonus on damage rolls equal to 1-1/2 time your Charisma bonus,' or 'you gain a bonus on damage rolls equal to your caster level, that in no way implies you don't still add your normal Str modifier. It would have to read '...instead of adding Str,' correct?
Even the Normal section would still read exactly the same, since its just relating the normal way damage would be done without adding bonus damage.
In other words, it doesn't say that it replaces a formula, but it does definitely say it adds bonus damage. Has this been addressed anywhere?
