You fail the first save against an effect that was caused by a power that rolled a critical. This one is for those classes and subclasses that don't focus on big hitting. Note that it doesn't let you use a coup-de-grace to get the benefit (or other auto-crit powers) because that might be too good.2. Monsters get +1d6 damage on a crit per tier. Including minions. We find that monster crits are pretty disappointing, especially when one person gets crit by a monster and then someone else gets hit for the exact same amount. That goes double for minions critting for the exact same amount they normally hit for.</blockquote>
