Are these basically the same thing? I can't find an entry anywhere on it.
I made a sword with a +1 attack bonus and +1 Enchantment bonus but i'm guessing these don't stack as I can't see any difference.
I'm assuming that attack bonus gives extra AB to hit and enchantment give the same plus the ability to cut through damage resistance 1.

Also, I found a sword with +1 attack bonus vs Orcs. If I added +1 enchantment, would this then stack vs orcs only?

Attack bonus and Enhancement bonus do not stack with each other. It will always pull whichever is highest.

Enhancement Bonus is Attack Bonus + Damage, so it is always the better option. Enhancement Bonus also pierces DR, yes, because of the added damage.

It will not stack vs. orcs. It'll just pull the +1. The most common usage of them together will be:

+5 Attack Bonus
+4 Enhancement Bonus


(Also, you can totally ask these questions in the General Questions topic instead of making a new thread! :D )

Correction: attack bonus also pierces damage reduction/soak.
