[QUOTE="Gaiden, post: 1311187, member: 103"] prereq - Con 20, Toughness benefit - increases DR by 2 (stackable) I used to think so too - then I saw a warhammer wielding Dwarven badass named Aramek put improved critical to devastating effect against many a foe in RttToEE. I agree that the feat is best used when combined with a high threat ranged weapon. However, statistically, a large range is no different than a smaller range multiple times. Here is what I mean: with the orc double axe, especially if Daelan takes ITWF, the extra attacks balance out the smaller range of the weapon. IC - long sword yields 17-20 threat range. IC orc double axe yields 19-20 threat range two times (once for each head). There is the issue of confirming threats. However, considering that this barbarian will uniquely gain access to bless weapon, confirming threats is moot. Granted, IC with the scimitar for a whirling dervish would probably be better, but I am not sure it would be that much better. The new Extra Smite from CW grants 2 extra smites a day. Don't forget that I am the DM. As a general rule I try and have as diverse encounters as possible both within an encounter and between encounters. [/QUOTE]
