Notes

  • The effect Organ Rearranger stacks with other passive effects that improve critical chance, including ranged attacks and spell attack rolls [1][2].
  • The damage reroll is not applied to thrown attacks, including throwing the weapon itself.
  • The Shadow Blade passive granted by this weapon does not grant advantage against obscured targets, instead seeming to do nothing.
