New Term: Ghetto Critical Hit

[TarionzCousin]

One of the guys in my group coined the term "Ghetto Critical Hit."

If you roll maximum damage when you hit, it's a ghetto crit. This is especially true if you roll three or more dice and they are all maxed out.

I heard that phrase at a convention last weekend from a woman who was representing Goodman Games.

Our group was using "pseudo-crit" in our games.

We were just calling it, "Ooh, you rolled max damage."

Hmmmm.... The guy in my group has been using this for several months, and I thought he invented the phrase. But evidence is lacking. Maybe he heard it or read it somewhere.

In any case, it gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling when someone in our group barely manages to hit and then rolls 24 on 3 d8's.

You guys watched the movie "Gamers"; didn't you?

Ghetto crit works. We've been calling it "poor man's crit."

Doesn't make sense to me. A crit that rolls minimum damage would be a ghetto crit.

In 4e you don't roll damage on a critical hit and simply max damage on all of your dice, unless you have a weapon that adds an additional dice on crits.
