Vital strikes and wep enchance splitting ?


Rules Questions


splitting Effect: Any arrow or bolt fired from a splitting weapon
magically splits into two missiles in mid-flight. Both missiles are
identical, sharing the nonsplitting properties of the original missile;
for example, a +1 splitting arrow splits into two +1 arrows in
mid-flight. Both missiles strike the same target. Make a separate
attack roll for each missile using the same attack bon

would both atks from splitting get the vital strikes dmg effect ?

ie heavy crossbow 1d10,splitting and greater vital

would each arrow get 4d10 ?


I'd say no; Vital Strike works on only a single attack, so one of those bolts would be the 'Vital Strike' bolt. The other would still have its own attack roll.

Separate attack rolls means separate attacks.

No dice.


just read else where 1 of the bolts get the vitals
