[QUOTE="Nine Hands, post: 8066502, member: 4919"] I was thinking that having an effect related to rolling doubles on your Advantage/Disadvantage would be an interesting mechanic. It ends up being 1 in 20, which is similar to the chance of rolling a natural 20 or natural 1. If you have Advantage AND you roll doubles AND you succeed, then maybe have a super critical success. If you have Disadvantage AND you roll doubles AND you fail, then maybe have a super critical failure. My only concern with this idea is that it can create a ton of specific rules. From my read through of Pathfinder 2, the critical success/failure has to be noted everywhere, since its not a generic rule to cover every situation. I think this makes creating homebrew spells more difficult. I'd recommend something generic to cover a majority of cases, with some specific rules for certain spells where it makes senses. Note: I did not read all of the posts, so this may already have been mentioned :( [/QUOTE]
