Base Attack Bonus

Post by bushwhacker2k »

At what points do characters get more attacks? (In increments like 5, 10, 15)

Also, for low, medium and high attack bonus when do they get attack bonus?

I think high is every level, low is every 2 levels and I don't know what medium is.

BTW if you just have a link to a place that answers this, I'd appreciate it if you posted.

You get another attack at 6, 11, 16, 21, 26 BAB

Low attack bonus: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 (level)
0 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9 10 (BAB)

see the pattern? Attack bonus = levels/2 rounded down. This is in the manual...

Medium... 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 (level)
0 1 2 3 3 4 5 6 6 7 8 9 9 10 11 12 12 13 14 15 (BAB)

In the manual...not sure how to express as an equation.

High Level = BAB

(gamebanshee removed my spaces to line up the BAB and level....you'll have to look at your manual electronic or paper)

No, it just plain sucks.. :D

It is well balanced though.. these are exclusive magic casters who shouldn't be doing melee/ranged attack. It also poses a restraint on multi-classing.
