Shocking Burst

Price: +1 Bonus
Property: Any Weapon
Caster Level: 10th
Aura: Moderate evocation
Activation: Critical

A shocking burst weapon explodes with electricity upon striking a successful critical hit.

The electricity does not harm the wielder. In addition to the extra electricity damage from the shock ability, a shocking burst weapon deals an extra 1d10 points of electricity damage on a successful critical hit. If the weapon’s critical multiplier is ×3, add an extra 2d10 points of electricity damage instead, and if the multiplier is ×4, add an extra 3d10 points.
Even if the shock ability is not active, the weapon still deals its extra electricity damage on a successful critical hit.
Bows, crossbows, and slings so crafted bestow the electricity energy upon their ammunition.
