IMACT CRITICAL TABLE (aka vibration crits, earth crits)

This should be complete with the exception of the rank 7 eye crit messaging and damage. Injury ranks are included (1,2,3) with the corresponding critical ranks.

There seems to have been a coding error with Rank3 neck damage (15). More than likely this value should have been 10, and the Rank 5 back crit damage (15)...but it is what it is.

Minor water (903) does impact (earth) crits and not water (cold/ice) crits.

Many spells have impact criticals associated with them including vibration chant, bone shatter, boil earth, meteor swarm, dark catalyst, elem blast etc. Although the crit rank and messaging for these attacks will correspond to the table below, the damage will usually be greater for them.

Wow. I think impact is deadlier than fire, acid or lightning.

Thanks a ton for doing these.

Which is why 1002 is my primary hunting spell against critable creatures.

Hmm..it might be more intuitive, visually, if I separate the eyes into 2 categories.

Done.

Anyone know the slash/crush ratio for a handaxe? Trying to see whether it's better all-around to go for the head/neck (crush) or the eye (slash).

Lightning:
Eye: 6
Eye: 6
Head: 6
Neck: 6
Chest: 9
Back: 8
Abs: 8

You should do a tally of the Rank needed for a fatal Nerve crit. I'm thinking it is at something like rank 4. The biggest perk of Lightning is that it also hits the nerves, which stops casters and drops creatures (and players) like nothing else.
