iaw: Hypertext d20 srd I find this:
When you spend 1 action point to improve a d20 roll, you add the result of a 1d6 to your d20 roll (including attack rolls, saves, checks, or any other roll of a d20) to help you meet or exceed the target number. You can declare the use of 1 action point to alter a d20 roll after the roll is made, but only before the GM reveals the result of that roll. You can’t use an action point to alter the result of a d20 roll when you are taking 10 or taking 20.

--What that seems to say is that if you need a bit of a boost you can expend 1 AP to your crit confirm roll to be able to try and make it, but you have to do so before i proclaim if it was a confirm or not.

It may be that you may already know whether or not you have a confirm by previous attacks in a combat, but if not, I would say that you would need to say in your initial post before i reconcile actions.

::::::::::Thoughts or comments anyone?::::::::::

Seems reasonable to me. It might slow things down a little in a pbp situation though.

But I wasn't just talking about the confirm roll, although that is a use I had not thought of before, so thanks for that tidbit, but I meant the crit roll itself. Are APs of use to make a hit a crit THREAT, if used before you reveal the results of the attack?

 

[Scott DeWar]

Oh, the crit roll it self.

No. the idea of the crit threat range is a natural roll of then die within the range of the crit threat.

BUMMER!

Booooooo, Hisssssss

BUMMER!

Booooooo, Hisssssss

Nice try.

My elf conjurer teleportation specialist wizard rogue is about ready and I should have a draft up by tomorrow evening.

 

[Scott DeWar]

you are the first. i almost have the first adventure ready, when you are ready to tackle it.

 

[Leif]

What am I playing here again? Fighter, right? Nope! Elven Duskblade! What sort of backstory do I need to pull off the Elf race, O Wise and Wonderful GM? I could make him Human if it's too difficult or even just a moderate pain in the posterior.

 

[Shayuri]

I don't think elves need a special backstory...I guess it depends on what the conditions are on our shard.

My 6th level Life Oracle is nearly ready.

 

[Scott DeWar]

for starters, i was thinking Elves are rare, dwarves and halfling less so, g-nomes are a fable as well as gnomes .. .. .. ..

and I thought i gave an answer on the duskblade already:

sorry, just looked it up and found no dusk blade in srd or apg or d20 pf ogl rpg sight.
I am inclined to not acquiesce.
that would be a no.

looks like I did. Nice try, Leif.
