Hydraulic Push has a confusing stat block for damage. After reading up on the spell I understand now why it’s the way it is, the damage of a heightened version of the spell does not double on a crit the way it normally would. Maybe you guys could make the () x2 section configurable and the base damage dice for crits able to be separated from the base damage of a normal success. I don’t know if there are other spells like this but I can imagine it would be frustrating to cover this edge case for one spell.
Thanks for the feedback! We’ll take a closer look at this spell and see if there’s something we can do to improve it.
@MellieDM I think I spoke too soon. This seems like it might be a very hard spell to fit into the UI as it stands because it doesn’t double damage on a critical so the bellow screen shot shows how it looks in the UI today. It heightened correctly but the critical area should not have the x2 and should just say 8d6. Maybe this is already in the backlog.
Thanks for the updated feedback! I’ll make sure it’s still on our list.
