[QUOTE="Wrahn, post: 1864589, member: 9191"] They used to, in 3.0, but in 3.5 no ability that increases the critical threshold stack. (I looked specifically at the scabbard, it cast Keen Edge 3/day, Keen Edge has this line: Multiple effects that increase a weapon’s threat range (such as the keen edge spell and the Improved Critical feat) don’t stack. You can’t cast this spell on a natural weapon, such as a claw. sorry :\ ) Good point, I had forgotten about that particular effect. For non-epic spell casters that is close to being true (they can throw a quickened spell in there too, but are limited to 1 quickened spell per round) With Automatic Quickened Spell and Multispell, this become a lot more complicated. Conceivable, a dedicated wizard could have Automatic Quicken Spell (0-9) and Multispell (x4) at 30th level, meaning he could throw 5 quickened spells and 1 normal spell in a single round. In 3.5 for meteor swarrm, to make someone ground zero from a meteor swarm (and thus deny them a reflex save) you have to make a ranged touch attack. 6 meteor swarms, even making the save is a lot of damage, considering chances are they will be anything but fire and if someone was really interested in removing my character from the playing field, a meta magic rod of maximize in each hand could make things reall ugly (assuming they miss the ranged touch attack and I make all my saves it is still 432 points of damage) Sorry :( :p :lol: That is your decision. It will increase your reflex save by 13 and everything else by 5. I was suprised you didn't have an enhancement bonus to your strength. [/QUOTE]
