IMPROVED CRITICAL [GENERAL] Choose one type of weapon, such as longsword or greataxe. With that weapon, you know how to hit where it hurts. Prerequisite: Proficient with weapon, base attack bonus +8. Benefit: When using the weapon you selected, your threat range is doubled. For example, a longsword usually threatens a critical hit on a roll of 19–20 (two numbers). If a character using a longsword has Improved Critical (longsword), the threat range becomes 17–20 (four numbers). Special: You can gain Improved Critical multiple times. The effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon. This effect doesn’t stack with any other effect that expands the threat range of a weapon (such as the keen edge spell). A fighter may select Improved Critical as one of his fighter bonus feats (see page 38).
