How do figure the endroll needed for a death crit against the various ASGs, using a ECW(+15) falchion unhidden?

Is there a site with a table? Could someone point me to the right column, or is it not that simple?

Thanks,
Askip

Well thanks to crit randomization thats easier said than done when you through the falchion into the mix.

From what I remember, crits are randomized...so there is no magic number. You can kill something with a 120 endroll to the eye, and you can fail to kill something with a 300 endroll to the eye.

The GS4 system blows goats.

The above post is completely incorrect. Crit randomization can only randomize crit rank downwards, specifically to (maximum crit rank / 2) rounded up.

As such, your task is as follows:
1) Ascertain which crit ranks cause death (combination of crit type and body part location).
2) Figure out how much crit weighting you will on average add to any given hit. This is made extremely difficult by the fact that characters also have natural crit weighting garnered from Dexterity bonus. I recommend skipping this step entirely.
3) If you want the endroll required to have any chance of getting a death crit, take the lowest number from part (1), multiply by the relevant crit divisor, divide by the Damage Factor, and you're done. If you want the endroll required to have a guaranteed death crit, you need a different weapon - the falchion's combination of crit types makes such a feat impossible.

Roll 2 d10 for imcomplete sheet music saving throws to not get teleported to the Happy Hunting Grounds using Heward's Mystical Organ. That's how it goes.

Someone has hurt feelings from past discussions. :(

It's not my fault you never had an endroll character in GSIV. You just don't know what you're missing. :D
