From the Class Abilities board:
The only monsters that have crit immunity on this server are the ones that realistically should (bosses, undead, dragons, constructs, etc.). A decent assassin build can make good use of their "devastating" attack. Look at the Assassin's class changes book along with several builds that have been brought up in the character build discussion forum.

Important to note that the Dev Crit feat is disabled for assassins too. So don't be taking the prerequisite feats for it if your buiding an assassin.
The 'Devastating Attack' mentioned is a simulation of the feat and requires the following:

So, to clarify, the Devastating Critical Feat is disabled and should not be taken?
Also, has anyone entertained the idea of altering Dev Crit so that instead of instantly killing the target, it takes other effects, for example, extending the crit range or adding crit damage?

HG is a highly modified version of NWN. They haven't missed much. Dev Crit (and overwhelming crit) are very important for high damage output tanks (primarily str tanks, or dex tanks with 25 str). This document contains details of custom changes to feats on Higher Ground. highergroundpoa.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=info&action=display&thread=6668Devastating Critical - Now adds +1 to critical hit multiplier for the weapon chosen instead of the normal effect. |

Also note, that vanilla NWN Devastating Critical feat is disabled (altered) *for PCs*. Some monsters have it unchanged (i.e. fortitude save versus death, unless immune to crits).They have also many other ways (resembling to Devastating Critical) to kill you in one hit, but you will surely find out it yourself.
