Scythe
If you want to talk uber weapon get a +5 Scythe of Flaming Burst, Icy Burst, and Schocking.
Assuming a 20 Strength (not too hard to imagine since you have a +10 weapon) and weapon spec in scythes, you are doing:
8d4 + 28 + 20 + 8 + 3d10 + 3d10 + 1d6 + 1d6 + 1d6
On a crit you are talking an average damage of 128.
Improved Critical can be worth it.

Munchkin... all of you...... Munchkins!!!!!!
Just kidding. I think Improved Crit is a great feat. It is a good boooster for lower level fighters and give them the theat every so often punching hard with the weapon. From an RPG perspective..... yes just hold on..... It signifies further mastery with your weapon, that you really understand how to use your weapon and make it hurt.
I build my characters fro mthe perspective of what fits with my story for them, not what makes their numbers better. Well most of the time.
