Non-standard attack and damage mods

Overview
In DDO, most melee weapons weapons use Strength for calculating attack bonus. With the Weapon Finesse feat, your attack bonus with a light melee weapon, a rapier, or unarmed uses Dexterity. Ranged or thrown weapons use dexterity for calculating attack bonus. With the Brutal Throw feat, your attack bonus with thrown weapons (but NOT ranged weapons) uses strength.

Certain weapons use different abilities for calculating attack bonus. Those are listed on this page.
