Spirited Charge Feat Critical Question

[cevkiv]

The feat Spirited Charge states that while making a mounted charge attack with a lance, you deal triple damage.

A lance deals x3 damage on a successful crit.

On a successful critical attack from a mounted lance charge, do I deal x5 damage (for two x3 multipliers stacking), or do I deal x9 damage by just multiplying the critical damage by three?

[Gorbacz]

Nope, you deal triple damage instead of double damage.

[cevkiv]

So the triple damage from the feat doesn't stack with the triple damage from the critical hit?

[Gorbacz]

Aaah, missed the "critical" part. In that case, it's x9 I believe, sorry for the confusion.

[cevkiv]

Thank you!

"Multiplying Damage: Sometimes you multiply damage by some factor, such as on a critical hit. Roll the damage (with all modifiers) multiple times and total the results.

Note: When you multiply damage more than once, each multiplier works off the original, unmultiplied damage. So if you are asked to double the damage twice, the end result is three times the normal damage.

Exception: Extra damage dice over and above a weapon's normal damage are never multiplied."

A crit from a lance with a spirited charge is x5, not x9. So, for example, if using a lance with 14 str one handed, the character would do 5d8+10.
