My group says the two do not stack anymore?
the 3.5 wording of ImpCrit seems to suggest that they do?
thoughts? citations?
from 3.5
Choose one type of weapon, such as longsword or greataxe. With that weapon, you know how to hit where it hurts.
Prerequisite: Proficient with weapon, base attack bonus +8 or higher
Benefit: When using the weapon you selected, your threat range is doubled. For example, a longsword usually threatens a critical on a 19 or 20 (two numbers). If a character using a longsword has Improved Critical (longsword), the threat range becomes 17 through 20 (four numbers). Note: "Keen" magic weapons also double their normal, nonmagical threat range. As with all doubled doublings, the result is triple. A magic longsword with a doubled threat range in the hands of a character with Improved Critical (longsword) would have a threat range of 15 through 20 (six numbers: 2 for being a longsword, +2 for being doubled once and +2 for being doubled a second time).
Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. The effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new weapon.
