Hey 5FS. I followed this build and I’m just not able to get up to 368 melee power. Do you have a break down of where that all comes from?  Also, at the risk of sounding super new, why go for weapon focus over something like power attack?  Just surprised to not see power attack at all in the build.

Thanks!

Im not 5FS but I can answer at least a little of this.

No power attack because Precision is better than Power Attack by a huge margin. The only reason I can see to take Power Attack is if I can’t use Precision (I.e. I’m raging) or if I’m never going to go past level 9.

Weapon Focus gives a little melee power now.

Yes, precision is better than power attack. Until recently you'd still take power attack as a prereq for cleaves, but there's no point in that on THF with strikethrough.

You'll only have 100-some melee power just standing around unbuffed in the harbor. 368 melee power is kind of a all-out effort situation. It's not uncommon, but you'll be too busy to monitor your stats in the character sheet. You'll need Blackrazor, KotC, and the rest stacked, power boost, sanctified fervor, zeal or blitz, etc.
