Talk:Improved Critical

Q. Do ranged weapons benefit from Imp Crit - Piercing?

Q. With limited testing I don't think improved crit stacks with Swashbuckling's competence bonus to crit profiles, can anyone confirm?
 * It does. What did you test? However, Swashbuckling crit expansion does not stack with other competence bonuses, see Threat_range --Cru121 (Contributions • Message) 13:04, August 5, 2014 (EDT)
 * Throwing Axe with Swashbuckling & improved crit throwing. base is 20 swashbuckling should push it to 18-20 and improved crit should push it to 15-20 but it stays at 18-20 so either it's a bug or I am doing something wrong, any ideas?
 * There's a number of bugs with throwers. I have not really explored them in depth, but this thread should give you some pointers: https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/444046-Work-in-progress-Critzilla --Cru121 (Contributions • Message) 00:17, August 6, 2014 (EDT)

Great Crossbow
The benefit for Great Crossbow is supposed to be +3 to the critical range, but once you take the Feat it claims that it is only +2. Since it does not update the weapon view it is difficult to determine whether the +3 or the +2 figure is accurate, since the combat log has such a short buffer and catching a critical hit live whilst also noting the number rolled is challenging in the midst of combat.
