When a creature rolls a natural 20 on an attack roll, the attack is a [[critical hit]]''.'' Critical hits automatically land regardless of the target's AC, and the attacker also rolls twice the normal number of dice to determine damage dealt, including additional dice such as those from smites or combat maneuvers. Modifiers and bonuses – including the creature's relevant ability score modifier and proficiency bonus – are not doubled. | When a creature rolls a natural 20 on an attack roll, the attack is a [[critical hit]]''.''
