Remember, the Ravager also does 3-18 poison
unless they save versus death. This is probably what you are seeing when they make their saving throw (they are avoiding the extra poison damage, not the vorpal hit). The 10% chance of vorpal hit seems like a lot, but in practice it does not pop up as much as you might think, especially considering higher AC of foes at that level, etc.
