Can other weapons besides blades be Vorpal? (Ex:Spiked Chains, Warhammers, whips...Fishhooks ect?) Does the enchantment just guide the blade better towards the target's neck or does a criticle experience with the Vorpal item just magically seperate the head from its body. Its a grizzly question but I must know.

Only slashing weapons can be vorpal, so you can't smash someone with a hammer and have their head pop off. As for how it works, I'm a little fuzzy. Anyone care to explain?

"-so you can't smash someone with a hammer and have their head pop off"-

It'd sure be fun to try!
"Feel the wrath of my Vorpal Warhammer!"
"What? Warhammers can't be Vor...Dear Sweet Sweaterknitting Gods! Thats a pain the poets right about!"

Fun indeed....mwahahaha...hahaha...mwah..ha...ahem.

Is there a crit range doubler for piercing? I think the bludgeoning one is called "meteoric", but I have no about the piercing one.

And how does a "crushing" weapon match up to a "disruption" weapon? I suddenly thought of someone dual-wielding hammers- one a brilliant energy meteoric crushing warhammer and the other a golembane / undeadbane hammer of disruption.

The bludgeoning equivalent is Intense, the piercing version is Penetrate.

as for disruption... im not sure what that does, so i cant answer that.

Disruption means on a crit it kills undead vs a fort save of like 14 or something

Soooo...atleast we all have learned a valuble lesson or two. Vorpal can be applied to weapons (only they have different names) and Gi-Jo's should never be left unsupervised near open alcohol.
