Notes

  • This feature only applies to main hand melee weapon attacks or unarmed melee attacks. For comparison, Savage Attacks Savage Attacks, a similar racial feature, only applies to melee weapon attacks (main hand or offhand) and not unarmed attacks.
  • Weapons that deal multiple damage dice like greatswords or mauls will only receive a single extra damage die from this feature. For example, this feature will add only 1d6 damage to a greatsword critical hit (2d6 base damage), but 1d12 damage to a greataxe critical hit (1d12 base damage).
