Eidolon adding str to atk bonus?


Rules Questions


Previous posts didn't answer this for me. If an eidolon uses its full 3 attacks as a full round attack action. Does it add its str to its base attack bonus?


For attacks the attack bonus is BAB + STR + other relevant stuff.
So yes, a normal eidolon will add it's str to it's bab for all of it's attacks.


Yes, it follows all the other rules that all other characters follow.

A human warrior with BAB +16 gets 3 attacks, and adds str to hit on all of them with a melee attack.

A lion gets two claws, a bite, and potentially a rake, and gets str added to all of them.

An eidelon with 3 attacks as a full round action gets str on all of them. Unless a class/race/etc calls out an exception to the general rules, the general rules apply. The eidelon doesn't have a call out exception, so it uses the normal rules. Str to BAB for melee, and Dex to BAB for ranged/finesse.


Thank you for answering that so directly.
