Talk:Precise strike

Well, Precise Strike seems to go against current policy and has the correct information and not repeating the error from the in game description. It has appeared to have worked as the comments at least on NWN2db do not dispute this. I would however suggest a note advising the in game description error but maybe that isn't nescessary as the community was given the correct information early.

A choice for terminology NWN2 "This extra damage is not multiplied in the case of a critical hit." or d20pfsrd "This bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit."

Proposed description

Precise Strike

Class Prerequisite: Duelist level 5.

Specifics: At 5th level the duelist gains the ability to strike precisely with a light or one-handed piercing weapon, gaining 1d6 piercing damage. This bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit. Precise Strike is automatically in effect when the duelist has no off-hand weapon or shield. At 10th level the damage increases to 2d6.

Use: Automatic.

Notes

Although the in game description states "This only works against enemies vulnerable to critical hits" the feat is more similar to d20pfrsd and is only not multiplied on a critical hit. The bonus damage is also in effect when using a two handed spear.

D&D Note

This feat works quite differently than its D&D version.

NWN2 Tip

The bonus damage, may not always compensate the inability to use either a shield or a weapon in the off hand, however it can be effective with a spear.

Gameplay

A torch may be used in the off hand with this ability. Ragimund (talk) There's 2 separate pages for Precise Strike, so copied across both
