Actually, this is not Daggermaster territory. A Daggermaster scores a crit 15% of the time, rather than your standard 5%, giving it a 10% increase.
5% + close to 5% for Oath + close to 5% for feature = close to 15%.
15% IS Daggermaster country.
Only if it's auto hit tho.
Edit: Also, another reason why the ambiguity should not exist:
Let's say you have a monster with Vulnerable Fire 5.
You attack him with a fireball, and your fireball normally does 3d6 + Intellegence Modifier.
Now, do you deal those extra five damage, or do you ignore vulnerability because the power says '3d6 + Intellegence Modifier' which is "clearly an exception to the vulnerability rules"?
Why, of -course- you deal the extra five damage. Unless the power told you to ignore vulnerable, you'd apply it, because that is the only thing that makes logical sense. Vulnerable is an ability of the logical form "When Situation X, Do Y." and Fireball is a clear example of Situation X.
The rule Precision is also an ability of the logical form "when situation X, do Y" except Situation X is 'when a feature allows you to roll numbers other than 20 for a critical' and do Y is "Do not automatically hit unless the roll is a 20."
The feature is even written using the same language as Precision: 'score' a critical hit. There's no indication -not- to apply it.
