If the attack is a critical threat, you must confirm individually with each creature. If one of the creatures within the line is also within melee range when you use wavecut, you also make a regular melee attack at your highest attack bonus against it, cutting it with both your blade and the blade of air.

Wavecut [Fighter] Prerequisites: BAB +6, Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization (Any slashing weapon)Benefit: As a standard action you can make a powerful weapon attack with a slashing weapon you have Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization in, which ripples through the air. This allows you to make a single melee attack against a target up to 25 feet + the weapon’s reach as a standard action. This action provokes an attack of opportunity.

You may use a full-attack action alongside wavecut, but instead you make a single attack in a line equal to the normal range of the weapon. You make one attack, comparing the result with the AC of each creature within the line, with a cumulative –2 penalty for each creature attacked after the first. You may only make a number of attacks this way equal to the number of attacks you can make in a full-attack +1.
