[QUOTE="CovertOps, post: 4919670, member: 65152"] To be clear I did not assume anything. 1. Holy Ardor grants a "Critical Hit". 2. "Critical Hit" says "Maximum Damage: Rather than roll damage, determine the maximum damage you can roll with your attack. This is your critical damage." 3. How much damage to I do? 4. I look at the power I'm using which says: 5. What does this "Hit:" thing in front of the damage mean? 6. The rules on "Hit" tell me that if my roll was high enough to beat or equal the targets defense then "...the attack hits and deals damage, has a special effect, or both." Now...if you want to overrule any of these mechanics in any way you need explicit text (within Holy Ardor) saying what rule it overrides and how OR go back one page where I quoted the compendium text on "Critical Hit" and find the text in there that says you "Hit" (by the way there is no such text). A better question for you is what is the difference between "score a critical hit" and "potentially score a critical hit"? Both do max damage if you "Hit" and no damage if you "Miss" so I'm not sure I understand the difference since this is the assumption that you claim I have made. Neither one grants a "Hit" or a "Miss" which is what you need to evaluate the effect of any power you use. This. We finally agree on something. [/QUOTE]
