With his two-handed battle-axe, he attacks a foe with 18 AC taking a -5 penalty to Power Attack, and rolls a 12 for a total of 17. Since he would have hit had he not used Power Attack, instead of whiffing completely he deals 6 (his strength modifier multiplied by one and a half) + 10 (double his damage from Power Attack) damage instead since he's wielding a two-handed weapon.Special: Any feats and abilities that would normally modify the damage for Power Attack do not apply to the damage dealt by this feat.
