Critical hit multiplier

[jadewillow]

Does anyone know what is included in a critical hit multiplier? Here is what I think is included

Weapon base damage
Weapon bonus damage (+3 for mithril for example)
Elemental damage
Strength modifier
Weapon racial bonus damage?

I don't think the following are applied until after the multiplier

Favored enemy
Overwhelming critical?
Bane of enemies?

Thanks

From Critical hit:

All bonuses to damage not specifically excluded from critical hits are added once per damage roll. Examples of sources of damage excluded from critical hits are sneak attacks and on-hit properties.

As undefinitive as that is.

I believe all damage is multiplied with some exceptions (so bane and favor should be multiplied in your example above):

- Darkfire (on-hit property)
- Flame weapon (on-hit property)
- Overwhelm crit (1d6 bonus on crit)
- Sneak damage (1d6, 2d6, etc.)
- any other on-hit things I can't think of...

NWN isn't a straight multiplier though, so I think if you have a x2 crit weapon, it just rolls the damage a second time (instead of multiplying the first roll times the multiplier).  For a x3 it will roll it 2x more to get the final number (which explains why for a x2 sometimes you get odd number total damages)

edit: forgot to add sneak

Oh, I just assumed damage was multiplied by the crit multiplier. So with a x2 I was always expected an even number in the end. Maybe not?
