Power crit smackdown

[SpikeyFreak]

Power Critical does not raise the crit multiplier. What it does is allow, once per day, your next attack to automatically threaten a critical.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prereq: +12 Bab, Improved Crit w/ weapon and proficiency.

benefit: Once per day you can declare a single melee attack with your chosen weapon to be an automatic threat before you make your attack roll. If the attack is successful, you roll to confirm the criticial regardless of whether the actual attack roll was a threat...

Ahh, that would be what I missed.

Thanks Rogue.

Yes it's X4 for the pick, +1 for rhino hide, +1 for assasin sense.
But please, could anyone post ideas on smackdown using power-critical, even if vague ideas?

 

[RogueJK]

Chances are you confirm the crit: x(4 [pick axe],+1 rhino hide,+1 assassin sense)=x6

Unless I'm missing something, Rhino Hide doesn't change the crit multiplier. It would only be x5 (x4 + x1 from Assassin's Sense)

[This is assuming that Assassin's Sense raises the crit multiplier by 1. I don't have Relics and Rituals on hand.]

Rhinio Hide doubles damage on a charge, crit or no crit.

Rhinio Hide doubles damage on a charge, crit or no crit.

I don't think the "double damage" is a bonus to the crit multiplier.

It states that all damage dealt by a charge attack is doubled. I don't think that they meant it as a +1 to the crit multiplier.

If I was generous, I'd might even say that the damage after figuring in the x5 critical is doubled.

Yes rhino hide doubles damage. But NO you don't double the damage after the x5, as stated in spirited charge and other similar issues: you double damage if you don't have any other multiplier OR add one to the multiplier if there is one (lance or crit).
For example you charge one a horse with spirited charge:x2 damage. You have a lance:x3. You have rhino hide x4, you crit =final x5.
And I repeat, please can somebody gives other ideas on using Power critical!

=final x6 - lances have a x3 crit.

This is obvious, but this feat is EVIL with standard DMG vorpal weapon. Just charge, auto-threaten and chop the head off...
