Discussion:Power Attack and Strength Checks
From D&D Wiki
Power Attack and Strength Checks[edit]
Out of curiosity, can power attack be used to increase a strength check? As I read the feat you forgo accuracy to add increased force to your blow, to me that means that you should be able to use power attack in more ways then simply increasing damage.
An example of this would be using a power attack to increase your modifer when tripping a monster, or perhaps power attacking that pesky locked door.
Discuss?

Only if you use the Knockback feat from Races of Stone.
