Flat out wrong. Per page 400 and 401 of the Player Core, “All types of checks, from skill checks to attack rolls to saving throws, follow these basic steps.“ … “You critically succeed when the check’s result meets or exceeds the DC by 10 or more.” Furthermore, individual skill actions specifically list a crit effect, such as with Recall Knowledge which grants you additional information or a follow up question.
Cool. Couldn’t find it anywhere on the net that wasn’t being attributed to pf2e. Doesn’t change the fact that the guy you’re replying to said 5e (I did recall playing with this rule in PF, but again couldn’t find the rule)
That’s Pathfinder rules, this is 5e
formally there is no crit success in 5e
I don’t see any indication that it is any specific system being referenced, so I chose the better one.
insight doesn’t exist in pf2e
Well you’re wrong. Nat 20 or nat 19 actually means you get to take another main action on the same turn, which can potentially also crit.
Umm, the comment you’re replying to specifically says “my 5e DM”.
And again, that’s homebrew for pathfinder, not pathfinder. There’s only rules for critical hits in pathfinder.
