[QUOTE="Obly99, post: 8848708, member: 7035194"] I homebrew in my campain that Vorpal work like the spell [URL='https://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/decapitate/']Decapitate – d20PFSRD[/URL] (DC 18 or 15 + enhancement bonus of the weapon, whichever is higher) while, for compensate, work on every critical, not only natural 20. Honestly, I completely agree with the PF1 mentality to remove the save or die abilities. They are not fun, both by the players and by the DM. On the part of the players, seeing your PG dying only because you have failed 1 ST it's not nice while if you are the DM to see your boss on which you have worked a lot, to be canceled only because he has failed 1 ST, does not give satisfaction. I remember the scene in which it happened: Phantasmal Killer enter on the boss in turn 1 and kill him. Neither we players nor the master have feel the slightest satisfaction and it's still remembered in my group as one of the most embarrassing boss fight. [/QUOTE]
