    Apologies if this is a problem that has been discussed elsewhere...

    Weird issure where my cleric/fighter of Pelor does not add in his character levels to his primary attack bonus.

    This character is a 3rd lvl Cleric/2nd lvl Fighter of Pelor that has the Strength and Sun domains.

    His primary attack bonus should read +11 (5 for str, 2 for the weapon, 4 for his lvls) but instead its listed at +7.

    When I switch weapons out (currently using a +2 longsword from the frog king) and his gear (gauntlets of ogre power) it lists the difference but it doesn't add the bonuses from his class levels.

    I noticed this occurred when he used his feat of STrength ability from the Strength domain along with a Bulls Str. domain spell.

    Now I don't know if the game is just not showing correct attack bonus or if it is actually using the incorrect listed bonus when my character attacks.

    Is this a known bug and is there a way of fixing it?
    Also, is there any way for the game to actually show the attack rolls made by each character like in the BG games?

    Any help appreciated, thanks.

    For the attack rolls, on the right there is a little blue symbol that with some concentration becomes a d20. Click and you can see each attack. Click those and u see each dice roll and modifiers.

    Okay I'm a dumbass...

    for some reason I had fighting defensively clicked and I don't remember why. That was why I was 4 lower on my primary attack.
    It might have been when I was fighting the hill giant in Emridy Meadows and wanted the higher AC and just forgot about it.

    Thanks for the information about seeing the attack rolls, I'll definitely be using that.
