Edit Page Content

When you make an Attack and roll a natural 20 (the number on the die is 20), or if the result of your Attack exceeds the target’s AC by 10, you achieve a critical success (also known as a critical hit).

If you critically succeed at a Strike, your Attack deals double damage. Other attacks, such as spell Attack rolls and some uses of the Athletics skill, describe the specific Effects that occur when their outcomes are critical successes.
