| | I think I've been corrupted by playing DDM. Am I correct in saying that true strike doesn't automatically cause a critical hit in DnD, it just adds +20 to your next attack roll? | | It's deja vu all over again. | |

When you do miss with the extra +20, it is time to get the *#6@ out of there!!! | | mark - Champion of the Goblin Worg Riders | anteblue_at_yahoo_dot_com IHawk's Have/Want List | IHawk's Trade List | Completed Trades - 214 | Pending Trades - 0

But you don't get the damage from rolling a crit. Imagine using +1 flaming burst arrows w/ true strike. . . | | It's deja vu all over again. | |

| | Nope, no critical hit in either DDM or D&D. True strike just adds to the dice roll. | | Champion of the Rakshasa. Check out my Mini Terrain Maker, or my new Dungeon Map Maker (under development). | |

I was talking about the Unavoidable Strike w/ the Gith Monk. For some reason I've always equated it w/ True Strike. | | It's deja vu all over again. | |

| | From what I understand, Unavoidable Strike is simply a touch attack in D&D. The auto-crit part was added onto the skirmish stats to make the Gith Monk more interesting. | | Champion of the Revenant Knight of the Elf Duskblade Complete Trades: Oni, Kidkach, Melrune, callidusx3 | |
