Mortal Usher Prestige Class

[Evan Riggs]

Reaping Strike, can it multiply on a crit?

Reaping Strike (Su): At 1st level, whenever a mortal usher deals hit point damage by using the attack action, casting a spell that targets only a single creature, or throwing an alchemical item as a standard action (including an alchemist’s bombs), he deals an additional 1d6 points of damage to the target, plus an additional 1d6 points of damage for every 2 additional class levels he has beyond 1st. This damage is positive energy damage if the target is undead, or negative energy damage if the target is living; creatures that are neither living nor dead, such as constructs, are unaffected by this ability.

Reaping Strike deals energy damage, which is never multiplied on a crit.

[Michael Sayre]

It is not multiplied on a crit. The general rule in Pathfinder is that unless specifically stated otherwise, extra damage dice over and above a weapon's normal damage are never multiplied.

[Bloodrealm]

It adds extra dice, so it is not multiplied on a critical hit.

[Evan Riggs]

thank you very much

Scorching ray is confused now.

"Unlike other modifiers to damage, additional dice of damage are not multiplied when the attacker scores a critical hit." CRB pg. 468

Is this Reaping Strike damage added to all attacks of a full-attack action or only to a standard attack action?

The “attack action” is a standard action. It would not apply on a full attack.

The one way to make it multiply on a crit is mythic vital strike, which thankfully gets banned because it makes mythic even more "who rolls init wins".

[Tom Sampson]

Mythic Vital Strike does not multiply bonus damage dice, as those do not get multiplied on a critical hit.
