Power Attack for Ranged


Homebrew and House Rules


Fighters have Power Attack. They also have archery feats focused on getting off more shots and mitigating MAP.

No class currently has a ranged version of Power Attack. If a class offered it, would it be worth it? How would it compare to fighter feats as a baseline?

The Ranger has a version called Deadly Aim, an 8th level class feat, pg 174.

Yes, they do. Other classes have ranged feats. You're welcome to make a comparison to one of those if you have an opinion.


I think that since you will be hitting from the dinstance, the fact you can't benefit from stuff like power attack is legit.

Deadly Aim could be a nice trade, depends the situation ( even if, personally, in a system where critical hits happens with a +10 difference, I would consider take something else ).
