A damn fine reason to avoid that kind of confrontation, or have massive DR (although, it won't help with the knockback

).
Oh, and I should also point out that we didn't use standard damage bonus. Frankly, we felt it was too crazy. We had our own modified damage bonus chart that was significantly less in potential damage.
