Damage dealt

I noticed something odd recently. Some of my characters sometimes do more damage to an enemy than their maximum damage should be. For example Xzar did 7 damage to a dude with his dagger, no crit. My level 1 F/T with average strength did 26 damage on a regular non-crit backstab with a longsword. Shouldn't the maximum damage be 4 in Xzar's case and 20 in mine?

Thanks

    Yeah, noticed that too. My cleric with 16str and Ashideena regularly does 10-11 dmg.

    I tried to repeat this and couldn't after 30 times. What platform and version are you on?

    I am on a PC, SoD 2.0.
    Had a 2x backstab of 28 damage today with no strength bonus, no bonus damage on item, only 1d8 sword and 2pips in sword. Weird.

    Very weird. Any mods installed?

    Why only 2.0?

    (also as mf2112 asked do you have any mods installed?)

    I didn't feel like updating because I thought certain mods won't work again if I update :)
    I have mostly story mods, the only two that aren't are Anthology Tweaks and Rogue Rebalancing but neither had any options that would increase damage like this and if they did, I wouldn't install those options anyway.

    Have you checked to see if story mode is active? (there was a bug specific to 2.0 where it would activate randomly on occasion)

    I don't think it is. My character often does pitiful damage in combat (3-4 damage) and I get lower than max hp on level ups and enemies crit.

    Were the enemies unarmed or equipped with ranged weapons.

    As an aside - I like 'Extra Combat Info' mode...
