09-16-05, 11:26 AM Do the damage bonuses now apply to creatures immune to crits?

Is there still a range limitation?

Now, for your opinions. :twocents:

Which are the most usefull?

Is it better to have one really good one or a few medium bonuses?

Thanks.

Yes the FE damage can be applied to creatures immune to critical hits.

Not quite sure what you mean by 'range limitation', but that may answer the question in of itself.

Now for my :twocents:

It depends on individual character and individual campaigns. If your FE is undead and your character has a real loathing for them and you come across them all the time in a campaign, then definately, Larger bonuses.
Personally I customize the bonuses each tiime I play because each character is different....large bonuses with one character just wouldn't make sense from a story point of view in another.

You're Welcome

09-16-05, 08:41 PM In 3.0 I don't think your bonus applied to ranged attacks beyond 30'. Is that still the case in 3.5?

09-16-05, 08:51 PM Although FE is precision damage, that definition has been divorced from the 30ft limit that still applies to Sneak Attack, the other most common form of precision damage. No point in being able to track a gnoll across a barren landscape for three days nonstop, and pick out a shot from a quarter of a mile away, but not being able to deal extra damage with it.
