			==Overview==
⚫	[[Category: ~~Terminology~~]]
			Every time players swing at a monster, they have a chance to critical hit. If they successfully critical, the monster will take additional damage. This boost to damage is represented in two phases, an increase in [[pDIF]], or effective [[Attack]], and direct modification by [[Critical Attack Bonus]] and other similar abilities. Additionally, Critical Hits forced by [[Sneak Attack]] and [[Trick Attack]] with [[Thief]] main receive [[base damage]] bonuses from [[Dexterity]] and [[Agility]] respectively.
	A '''Critical Hit''' is an attack that does more than the usual amount of damage to a monster. <br />
	When an attack scores a critical hit, a different animation is used instead of the normal hit animation. <br />

			While all normal swings have the potential to critical, [[Weapon Skill]]s can only critical hit if their descriptions read "chance to critical hit varies with TP." or an effects enables them to critical hit (ex. [[Shining One]]). This has been proven multiple times, though the easiest verification method is using 1-hit weapon skills and looking for damage that indicates a critical hit has occurred. It also appears that some weapon skills, though they possess the appropriate description, do not receive the benefit of base and gear Critical Hit Rate, like [[Blade: Rin]].
	The higher an attacker's [[DEX]], the greater their [[Critical Hit Rate]] against an opponent is. The higher a defender's [[AGI]], the less likely they are to have critical hits scored against them.

			*For '''melee weapons''', critical hit rate is the sum of the base rate (5%), gear/atma (0-100%), merit points (0-5%), Buffs, [[Weapon Skill]] modifiers, and player [[Dexterity]] relative to target [[Agility]] (also known as dDEX, 0-15%). As there is no cap to critical hit rate, it can be taken all the way to 100%, guaranteeing that every attack is a critical hit. Category-specific caps are marked. It also only takes whole number values, so it is impossible to have something like a 12.5% Critical Hit Rate.
	The minimum critical hit rate from DEX vs. AGI is 5%, the maximum is 20%. Equipment and merits that increase critical hit rate are added on top of this.
			**[[Weapon Skill]]s with the description "Chance of Critical Hit varies with [[TP]]" modify Critical Hit Rate during Weapon Skill. Generally, the base modification at 100[[TP]] varies from 0% to 40%, and extra Critical Hit Rate is awarded for TP over 100.
			***'''Example:''' A [[Thief]] has 115 [[Dexterity]], Level 5 Critical Hit Rate Merits, +4% Critical Hit Rate in gear, and is fighting a monster with 96 [[Agility]]. They have a 5% + 4% + 5% + 0% + 2% (dDEX=19) = 16% Critical Hit Rate.
			*For '''ranged weapons''', critical hit rate is the sum of the base rate (5%), gear/atma (0-100%), merit points (0-5%), Buffs, [[Weapon Skill]] modifiers, and player [[Agility]] relative to target [[Agility]] (also known as dAGI, no known cap).
			**Dexterity does '''not''' affect critical hit rate for ranged weapons.

			===Melee Critical Hit Rate (dDEX)===
	It is currently believed that critical rate caps out when DEX is 50 points higher than AGI, at least at level 75.
			----
	{{verification}}
			dDEX (Player [[DEX]] - Target [[AGI]]) determines the contribution of [[Dexterity]] to melee critical hit rate. This is added on to the base rate and merits to determine the total critical hit rate. Because this value depends on the target's [[Agility]], which will be determined by its level and job combination, Critical Hit value changes significantly depending on target.

	~~Critical~~ ~~Hit~~ ~~rate~~ ~~follows~~ an ~~exponential~~ ~~curve.~~ ~~Minor~~ ~~increases~~ in ~~DEX~~ ~~will not~~ ~~have a~~ significant ~~impact~~ on critical hit rate ~~(e.g.~~ ~~DEX+1~~ = ~~+0.25~~ ~~critical~~ ~~hit~~ ~~rate).~~ ~~Major~~ ~~increases~~ in ~~DEX~~ ~~increase~~ ~~the~~ ~~rate~~ ~~significantly~~, ~~whereby~~ ~~DEX+1~~ ~= ~~+1%~~ critical hit rate.		Based on the chart below, you can see that there is an extremely significant jump in critical hit rate when dDEX is increased from 40 to 50 (from 4% at dDEX=39 to 15% at dDEX=50), but no further boost to critical hit rate once dDEX is greater than 50.

A '''Critical Hit''' is an attack that does more than the usual amount of damage to a monster. <br />
When an attack scores a critical hit, a different animation is used instead of the normal hit animation. <br />

The higher an attacker's [[DEX]], the greater their [[Critical Hit Rate]] against an opponent is. The higher a defender's [[AGI]], the less likely they are to have critical hits scored against them.

The minimum critical hit rate from DEX vs. AGI is 5%, the maximum is 20%. Equipment and merits that increase critical hit rate are added on top of this.

It is currently believed that critical rate caps out when DEX is 50 points higher than AGI, at least at level 75.
{{verification}}

Critical Hit rate follows an exponential curve. Minor increases in DEX will not have a significant impact on critical hit rate (e.g. DEX+1 = +0.25 critical hit rate). Major increases in DEX increase the rate significantly, whereby DEX+1 ~= +1% critical hit rate.

The trait [[Critical Attack Bonus]] and equipment such as [[X's Knife]] can increase the damage dealt by critical hits, see [[Increases Critical Hit Damage|Critical Hit Damage]] for more details.
