{{3.5e Feat
|name=Overtaxing Swing
|types=
|summary=You may take damage to reduce the penalty from power attacking.
|prereqs=[[SRD:Power Attack|Power Attack]]
|fluff=You are able to deliver precise and powerful blows, but doing so overtaxes your body.
|benefit=Whenever you make an attack modified by [[SRD:Power Attack|Power Attack]], you may take damage equal to half the base damage of the weapon. If you do you gain a competence bonus on attack roll equal to the power attack penalty applied on the attack. This applies even if you would take no power attack penalty, gaining a bonus on attack roll equal to what the penalty would have been. If the power attack penalty would be applied to AC instead of attack roll, you gain a bonus to your AC instead.

If used alongside [https://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/vital-strike-combat/ Vital Strike] (Including the improved and greater version), you multiply the extra damage from power attack alongside the base damage dice.
