Q about Critical Hit

Postby vandulus » Mon Aug 20, 2012 3:13 pm

T he adept targets an opponent’s vulnerable areas, increasing
the damage inflicted by adding his Critical Hit Rank to the
Damage Test of a successful close combat or ranged Attack Test
that achieves an Excellent Result.

I think I already know the answer to this, this adds the Rank to the damage IE rank 5 adds +5 to daamge not to the damage test step

If I am right seems to be a very weak talent for a circle 9 talent

Unless I am wrong and it adds to the damage step?

thanks

Hi vandulus,

You can do it either way, but I recommend adding it to the Damage Step, rather than Damage Test, if possible. For attacks where Critical Hit comes into play, simply add another entry for the weapon stats including Critical Hit on the Character Sheet and note the Action Dice, to save time during play.

Hope this helps!

Take kaer, James
