[QUOTE="bdmac, post: 4476823, member: 76462"] Finally, thank you! Again, I really WANT this to be true but I cannot see how it possibly can be. For a crit on the attack to maximize SA damage you'd have to somehow be able to rewind time from after making the damage roll (which is maximized) and say that your SA, which you just now decided to apply, was actually part of the original attack/damage roll that helped you decide in the first place to apply it. At the very least for this to remotely be legit I would say you would have to declare BEFORE your attack roll that "this is my SA attack for the round" which: a) Blatantly disregards the rule above. b) Is probably a bad idea cause what happens if you miss.... do you lose your SA or do you then get to say "Haha, I was just kidding when I said that"? c) What happens if you don't miss but your attack killed the critter? (which is why I think they allow you to decide AFTER damage rolls.... NOT so you can try to always maximize your SA on a crit). [/QUOTE]
