Leap attack, power attack, and two-handed?

[animewatcha]

Was this ever addressed or agreed upon or something as to what the final product is? To use a base number, -5 attack to attack roll so base PA number for two handed is 10. What should be the end result?

Leap attack would add another 10 damage. Why do you ask?

For 3.5 I believe the errata on Leap Attack was that it was +100% power attack damage rather than double As each "stage" adds 100% of the base attack roll penalty to the damage, essentially, a two-handed Leap Attack's bonus damage is (Penalty to attack roll)x3 rather than x4.

So in your case, -5 to the attack roll would become +15 to damage.

Leap Attack already says +100%, not double, to begin with. And that's why it adds 10 in OP's situation AFAIK; if it said "double", it would follow the standard multiplier stacking rules with Power Attack to produce 3*(penalty taken). However, it doesn't multiply; it adds. So you calculate it by applying all multipliers, and then adding an amount equal to the bonus damage from Power Attack which in this case is 2*penalty; other multipliers don't matter because the damage they add is damage from Frenzied Berserker (or whatever), not from Power Attack.

Leap attack follows the following rule, according the the Complete adventurer errata:

If you cover at least 10 feet of horizontal distance with your jump, and you end your jump in a square from which you threaten your target, you deal +100% the normal bonus damage from your use of the Power Attack feat.

Supreme power attack follows the following rule, according the the Complete warrior errata:

A 10th-level frenzied berserker deals +100% the normal damage from her use of the Power Attack feat. In other words, when using the Power Attack feat, a frenzied berserker wielding a two-handed weapon gains a +4 bonus on damage rolls (instead of a +2 bonus) for each –1 penalty she applies to her attack rolls.

The similar wording is explicited only in CWar, it means that when using the Leap Attack feat, a character wielding a two-handed weapon gains a +4 bonus on damage rolls (instead of a +2 bonus) for each –1 penalty she applies to her attack rolls, thus -5 to hit => +20 damage
