Coup de Grace is an ability in Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
All characters get this ability at level 1.
Effect[]
As a full-round action, you can use a melee weapon to deliver a coup de grace to a helpless opponent.
You automatically hit and score a critical hit. If the defender survives the damage, he must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + damage dealt (which is calculated as: attacker's base attack + melee damage attribute modifier + weapon's critical modifier)) or die.
Notes[]
Prononced as ku de gras. For a guide to pronunciation: Wikipedia - Coup de grâce.
You can use bow/crossbow for coup de grace, if you're standing very close to your opponent. This does not work in Kingmaker, tested Jan 22/2023.
Delivering a coup de grace provokes attacks of opportunity from threatening opponents.
You can't deliver a coup de grace against a creature, that is immune to critical hits.
Coup de grace can also kill enemies that have regeneration.
