Hello,
I'm trying to fill the Pathfinder's french wiki and I have a question about the ratfolk tailblade
PRD (and french translation of ultimate equipment) says :
Ratfolk Weapons
Martial Weapons Cost Dmg (S) Dmg (M) Critical Range Weight Type Special
Light Melee Weapons
Tailblade 11 gp 1d2 1d3 20/×2 — 1/2 lb. S —
My question is about the critical : 20/x2
is it just x2 or is it missing something like 19-20/x2 ?
Help me to fix it, please...
Ratfolk Tailblade is not mentioned in Ultimate Equipment. It is an Advanced Race Guide exclusive item.
You'll find its entry here. Based on what you posted, it matches the entry listed in the Advanced Race Guide.
Yes, you are right. It is in the advanced race guide !
But what about critical ?
It does not list just x2 but 20/x2 !
It is the only weapon to do it.
That's why I asked the reason for this weird change.
It is a little strange, since it's not in universal formatting. I mean, if you see a "1" in a weapon entry, it's no different than "1D1", it's just typed as "1" because "1D1" is a little redundant (since the only result you can get is "1" on a 1D1 dice.
The same applies here. If you see a "X2" in a weapon entry, it's no different than "20/X2". It's a little weird that it's typed that way, but the text written as "20/X2" doesn't really change anything from it simply being written as "X2".
You're more than welcome to cross out the "20/" if it makes you feel better, but there really is no difference between the two written sets of text.
Thanks for the answer.
I will keep only x2 for the moment.
And I will survey for a possible erratum of the typo in the future.
