Critical hit

Occurance
Each weapon attack has an independent chance of dealing a critical hit. A higher weapon attribute increases this chance. Attacker and target levels are also factors. A few skills can cause or negate critical hits, as specified in their description.

Effects
Whenever a critical hit occurs, the damage done is equal to the maximum damage of the weapon multiplied by approximately sqrt(2). Non-critical hits are a random value chosen between the minimum and maximum damage values of the weapon.
