Sure, that's why I'm decreasing it now!
Right now, I'm erring on the lower end, which is probably too low. I guess I'll do a staggered progression as with most feats, probably with dice as well - rolling dice is more fun! I have to muse a bit about that - and when you get hit and can chuck dice to retribute... it's cool.

It's a fun side-effect! But yeah, auto-crit is too good, the more I think about it. A normal attack is already pretty good.

That's nice and I used it, however I kept the lower damage. Comparing it with the poisons from the DMG, it is good because it's an auto-hit on range now. Keeping it lower is probably better. Though think I like to increase it, otherwise it stacks up pretty bad to something basic like Weapon Focus (right now, it's about as good as a weapon focus, if you hit two to three times with your weapon in an encounter - AND you burn your Channel Divinity, which could be used for other things). Well, I guess there's something for the next revision... I'm messing with the layout right now.

Cheers, LT.
