[QUOTE="Gorck, post: 8759725, member: 7037537"] One thing that keeps bugging me in this thread is people continue to say that the Rogue's Sneak Attack damage doesn't get doubled on a critical hit. Sneak Attack is addition weapon damage and the 1DD playtest packet says, "If a player character rolls a 20 for an attack roll with a Weapon or an Unarmed Strike, the attack is also a Critical Hit, which means it deals extra damage to the target; you roll the damage dice of the Weapon or Unarmed Strike a second time and add the second roll as extra damage to the target." I'm not seeing where critting wouldn't include the Sneak Attack damage as well. Am i missing something? I get that it wouldn't include the Paladin's Divine Smite because you spend a spell slot to use that featutre and the description says it deals radiant damage in addition to the weapon's damage, which would imply that it's magical (and spells no longer crit).
