[QUOTE="Parlan, post: 4775749, member: 16808"] I`m having trouble figuring out how to apply the Brutal property in a couple of cases. "A brutal weapon’s minimum damage is higher than that of a normal weapon. When rolling the weapon’s damage, reroll any die that displays a value equal to or lower than the brutal value given for the weapon. Reroll the die until the value shown exceeds the weapon’s brutal value, and then use the new value." Would I re-roll the extra die granted from the Execution Axe`s High Crit Property? "High Crit (A high crit weapon deals more damage when you score a critical hit with it. A critical hit deals maximum weapon damage and an extra 1[W] at 1st–10th levels, an extra 2[W] at 11th–20th levels, and an extra 3[W] at 21st–30th levels. This extra damage is in addition to any critical damage the weapon supplies if it is a magic weapon.)." What about the Half-Orc`s Furious Assault power? "The attack deals 1[W] extra damage if it`s a a weapon attack..." Since they`re both doing and additional 1[W] I`d expect the answer to be the same for both, but I`m just not sure. [/QUOTE]
