Leap Attack Example Question | EN World Tabletop RPG News & Reviews

hmm...

I have some questions that may need clarification. I may be reading the feat description wrong, but wouldn't you triple the total damage dealt by power attack?

The feat reads:

you can double the extra damage dealt by your use of the Power Attack feat. If you use this tactic with a two-handed weapon, you instead triple the extra damage from Power Attack.

If you doubled the amount of damage dealt by use of power attack when using a one-handed weapon and power atttacking for 5, the result would be 10. (-5 for +5, doubled for +10)

If you triple the amount of damage dealt by use of power attack when using a two-handed weapon and power attacking for 5, would the result not be 30?

Let me explain my thought process here a bit...

You already get the -1 attack for +2 damage when power attacking with a two-handed weapon, so power attacking for a -5 penalty to attack would result in +10 to damage.

Now, if you triple the damage dealt when power attacking as per the leap attack feat, would you not triple the +10 damage that you get from power attacking normally, resulting in a +30 to damage???

The way that the feat description reads leads me to think that you triple the total extra damage from power attack, which would result in a -5 to attack for a +30 to damage. Am I wrong??? Would it work as -5 to attack for +15 to damage? That doesn't make much sense to me...

Please stop me if I am mixed up or totally off the grid and explain your thinking logically.

Thanks!
