Required for: devastating critical

Use: automatic
[edit] Notes
- Requires Hordes of the Underdark.
- Most NWN manuals state that weapon focus is a prerequisite, but it is not.
- This feat stacks with the thundering rage massive critical bonus, and with the massive critical property on a weapon.
- Despite the game description, overwhelming critical actually adds an additional 1d6 for a total of (critical multiplier)d6 extra damage.
- If the feat ki damage is used there is only a 1d6 bonus from overwhelming critical despite the critical multiplier. This sometimes makes it a good idea for weapon masters not to use the ki damage feat when the weapon of choice has a large threat range or a high critical multiplier.
