Message: <blockquote data-quote="Xyrlove Woodsoul" data-source="post: 5914789" data-attributes="member: 86857">I understand that damage from sneak attack, hunter's quarry, warlock's curse, are maxed when one scores a critical hit, and it's my understanding so is extra damage from things like power strike, assassin's strike etc. And although I do have official reference that damage from sneak attack, hunter's quarry, warlock's curse are maxed on a crit, I nevertheless cannot find anything official that states that things like, power strike and assassin strike are maxed as well. The reason this is an issue for me is because, my DM does not realize that sneak attack, hunter's quarry, and warlock's curse, are maximized on a critical hit, and I can direct him to an official source showing that those things are maxed on a crit, but, I don't have anything official showing that power strike is maxed on a crit, and I know my DM is going to say that power strike is different than those things, because power strike is a power. That may not be a good argument, but, I know that's going to be my DM's argument. Thus, does anyone have an official reference showing that power strike is maxed on a critical hit? (or if I get enough replies to this in the affirmative, then I can just send him the link to this thread).If not, what would be the best argument I can make from the RAW that power strike is maxed on a critical hit? (beyond what is stated in the RC)Also, is the half orc racial power Furious Assault maximized on a critical hit, given that it is a seperate action (a free action)? If it is, how could I show that it matters not that furious assault is a free action?</blockquote>
