  • Threat range
rdfs:comment
  • A threat range is all natural die roll results that constitute a threat when rolled for an attack roll. For most weapons, the threat range is 20, but some weapons have threat ranges of 19-20 or 18-20. Any attack roll that does not result in a hit is not a threat, whether or not it lies within the weapon's threat range.
  • The threat range for a weapon indicates the likelihood of scoring a critical hit with that weapon. For most weapons, this range is 20, but some weapons have threat ranges of 19-20 or 18-20. All attack rolls that fall into the threat range before adding the attack bonus threaten a critical hit if the attack is successful. Such a threat is resolved by a threat roll, which is similar to an attack roll, but without automatic failure and success on natural rolls of 1 and 20, respectively.
