If the d20 roll of an attack falls within the weapon's threat range (default 20), the attacker rolls again with the same attack bonus. If that hit is also successful, the damage is multiplied by the weapon's Critical Hit multiplier.

If the d20 roll of an attack falls within the weapon's threat range (default 20), the attacker rolls again with the same attack bonus. If that hit is also successful, the damage is multiplied by the weapon's Critical Hit multiplier.

For example, a longsword deals 1d8 points of damage and has a threat range of 19-20. That means that if the d20 roll for a longsword attack lands on a 19 or 20, the attacker may roll again to confirm the critical. If that confirming roll hits, the total damage is multiplied by the longswords critical multiplier, in this case x2.

*For weapons with threat ranges larger than 20, the attack roll within the threat range still must still meet or exceed the target's AC. Only a natural 20 is a guaranteed hit.
