My paladin has the savage attacker feat from the soldier background. Hitting level 2, id like to take great weapon fighting. I often use a maul and divine favor, so I’m rolling 2d6+1d4 per attack. Savage attacker really isn’t improving my damage much, and with gwf; I think it’ll have even less of an impact. Has anyone run into this issue?
That’s true! With a great axe; savage attacker is pretty ok. I just wish the feat was more universally applicable. It also conflicts with gwf; because gwf is better with allot of small dice, while savage attacker is better with fewer large dice
