Weapon mastery and burst enhancements

[grasshopper_ea]

would weapon mastery's increase of the critical threat damage multiplier increase the damage

i.e. would a 20 fighter with a flaming burst kukri do 3d4 + 2d10 fire on a critical hit?

Looking over the rules for Burst Weapons and Weapon Mastery, I would say yes. It increases the damage. I cant see anything in the rules that explicitly or even implies that they would not and my group usually goes with "if it doesnt say directly that you cant then you can."

Flaming burst is based off of the critical multiplier of the weapon. In the hands of a level 20 fighter a kukri has a multiplier of x3, which nets it +2d10 fire damage on a critical hit with a flaming burst weapon.

So yes.

another way of looking at is, it's a capstone ability, only available to 20th level fighters, why not let them have a little bit of awesome-sauce?
