- See graph of RAW stuff here, though it doesn't have two-handed melee (the difference compared to my numbers is crits which I've ignored for simplicity): https://www.reddit.com/r/3d6/comments/rw59nt/baselines_math_a_reddit_guide_2/hrkgfzu/
- +3 stat if a feat was taken on lv4 (assuming vuman for the two-feat builds), 65% base hit chance with +4 stat.
- No cleave, brace, cover bypass, none of the riders or unreliable additional effects. This benefits TWF in particular.
- Fighting styles for dueling / archery / TWF are applied since they're auto picks and synergistic, but not GWF since it's most likely to be eschewed, and I'm using a homebrew for it. Account for that with two-handed PAM numbers in particular, they have more than just reach compared to the one-handed PAM.

- New PAM (no GWF): 24.625
- 5.5+16+4=25.5 per attack --- 2.5+4=6.5 per butt attack (you could juggle the PA over to this but it's marginal)
- 25.5*40%=10.2 with hit rate --- 6.5*65%=4.225 with hit rate
- 10.2*2+4.225=24.625 DPR

- 7+4+16=27 per power attack
- 27*40%=10.8 with hit rate
- Graze: 4*60%=2.4 twice
- 10.8*2+2.4*2=26.4 DPR
- New TWF: 26.95 (with no situational extra attacks like cleave etc., and no shield, and no range or free hand)
- 4.5+4+13=21.5 per power attack --- 3.5+4=7.5 per offhand attack

- 18.5*50%=9.25 with hit rate --- 18.5*75%=13.875 with advantage
- 9.25+13.875=23.125 DPR
- So full damage two-handed melee builds can do 26. 10-20% behind that falls basically everything else, with varying degrees of extra benefits like range, free hands, more spread out damage, synergy with various class features, reach, situational bonus attacks, etc.
