Can some one make a list of all the stackable things with this? So far I've noted:
Elixer of Vicious
Sarevoks Helm
Orin Blade of blood
Covert Cowl
Shade-Slayer Cloak

Didn't stack with with Spell Sniper on Warlock. Eldritch blast didn't crit on 18.

So if the number is reduced from 20 to 19, does this even help at all? You are as likely to roll a 20 as any other number? You just change the number needed?

Does this work like standard 5e where spell attacks are excluded?

Hm, I guess my next Character might be a Champion Thief, acting as a Gunslinger by Dualwielding Hand Crossbows.
Sure, I'll lose the Improved Extra Attack on Lv11, which would give you 4 Attacks overall, but the Thief makes up for it with his second Bonus Action. (Since Two Weapon Fighting allows you to make a Bonus Action Attack)
So either going Lv9 Champion Lv3 Thief, or Lv8 and Lv4, doing the latter we'd get 4 Feats instead of 3.
However, the lack of learning an additional Fighting Style (for example "fighting initiate" from Tasha's Cauldron) takes away from the maximum Potential.
Feats looking forward to:
Crossbow Expert
Sharpshooter
Dual Wielder
However, a possible way do get those 3 Feats AND the Archery + TWF Fighting Styles would be:
LV6 Champion - LV4 Thief - LV2 Ranger (or Paladin)
Since Divine Smite only works with Melee Weapon, I'd probably pick Ranger for Favoured Enemy and Natural Explorer.

There are weapons that crit on a 19 and effects (such as Invisible Weapons) that let you crit on a 19. This stacks with those and lets you crit on an 18.
