Inspired by
this thread, i've decided to make a small resource for finding ways to add extra ability score modifiers to damage.
Right now, this guide will consist of 3 lists. The first list will include any feat, stance, item, or other mechanic that allows you to add an extra amount of damage based on a particular ability score modifier to
other attacks. The second list, which i will get around to filling out when i get some free time soon, will be dedicated to powers that add an additional ability score modifier that is unusual for the class it belongs to. An example would be Sly Flourish, which adds not only the customary Dex damage for rogue powers but Cha as well. The third list will deal with ways to add ability score modifier damage on missed attacks.
I have limited access to my books and no access to the compendium so i ask for everyone to chip in if possible.
PART 1: Abilities that grant additional damage to various attacks, as based on a particular ability score modifier. Example: The Pit Fighter's Dirty Fighting feature grants WIS modifier damage to any weapons-based attack, but is not an attack power that deal +WIS damage itself.––––––––––––––––––––––––––

PART 2: This list includes attack powers that deal bonus damage from multiple ability score modifiers. They will be listed based on the secondary ability score added, as opposed to primary ability score normally used for attack powers of the class to which the power belongs. For example, the fighter's Brash Strike power is listed under CON even though it does +STR +CON becuase most fighter power already deal +STR damage. Powers that add more than 2 ability modifiers to damage will be listed multiple times, once for each ability modifier added beyond the first one. For example, if a fighter power deals +STR, +DEX and +WIS, it will be listed under both DEX and WIS for ease of reference.––––––––––––––––––––––––––
