− | 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 example, a longsword deals 1d8 points of damage and has a threat range of 19-20.
