Grr... let v = 1d6 vorpal, v = 15/6 + (v+6)/6... 6v = 15 + v + 6... 5v = 21... v = 4.22d6 = 8.4 average...So Final Oath's crit with a large fullblade becomes 18(6)+6d12+6d6vorpal+1d10...108+39+25.2+5.5.......177.2 average critical.So... the crits from this Critvenger at level 29 (assuming maximum power in the attack) is higher than the crits from the daggermaster.  (I'm sorry, Brutal Scoundrel won't make up for 20 points of difference here.)Wow.  Average damage is also better for the avenger, because of vorpal and the larger number of dice involved.Just.  Wow.</blockquote>
