Rules Questions


Hi all just a quick question how do you handle crits ?
Do you roll the damage as normal and then multiply the total or do you roll multiple dice as in the main rules
I've looked at several old threads and there seems to be a lot of mixed views on this
Or do you use another way please let me know

As per RAW. Multiple dice.

No funny business.

I let players choose which way they want to do it. But they can't roll one dice and then decide they want to roll the other.

Ive seen both. I honestly dont care which as long as its consistant. In 3.5 I had a Wizard player that would just opt to do average damage with spells, and was consistant with it so t wasnt an issue. Honestly most crit damage tends to come from the static numbers that are multiplied, not the dice anyway or close.
