Notes

Regarding Organ Rearranger:

• Organ Rearranger stacks with other passive effects that improve critical chance, including ranged attacks and spell attack rolls [3][4].
• Organ Rearranger's damage reroll is only applied to melee weapon attacks. When dual-wielding melee weapons, both weapons will benefit.
  • All damage dice attached to an attack can be rerolled, not just the weapon's base damage die.
• The damage reroll is not normally applied to any other attack type, including  throw attacks using the Knife of the Undermountain King itself.
  • However, Organ Rearranger's damage reroll does stack with itself (via a second  Knife of the Undermountain King due to the  King's Knife or  Invoke Duplicity bugs) or dual wielding with  Twist of Fortune. The improvement of the second reroll is smaller than the first one.

Regarding Shadow Blade (passive feature):

• While active, Shadow Blade provides  Advantage to both mainhand and off-hand equipped melee weapons.
• Prior to Patch 8 Hotfix 1, Shadow Blade granted advantage to all attack rolls when active. This was changed to only melee weapon attacks.
