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 applied to any other attack type, including throwing attacks using the Knife of the Undermountain King itself.
Regarding Shadow Blade (passive feature):
- While active, Shadow Blade provides Advantage to both mainhand and off-hand equipped melee weapons.
Bugs
Regarding Shadow Blade (passive feature):
- Prior to Patch 8 Hotfix 1, Shadow Blade granted advantage to all attack rolls when active. This was changed to require any melee weapon attack.
