Hello,

Players use strenght bonus for melee weapons.

What about monsters?
I know bonus is applying for claw's type weapon, but for bite?
I have looked into many monsters in BG2, and some does have it, some doesn't.

For example, greater basilisk have 3 attack:
- petrification
- claw with poison (with strenght bonus)
- bite (no strenght bonus)

What do you think about that?

This was actually the situation in 2nd edition AD&D - giant's attacks would do damage by weapon, either doubled to tripled depending on the size of the giant (IIRC size 'huge' giants did double damage, while size 'gargantuan' giants did tripled damage), and then added their strength-based damage bonus.
I believe that 3rd and 3.5th editions use a for formulised and general rule to do the same thing.
