Critical hits

Critital hits cause more damage to a denizen than a normal hit. As an adventurer rises in experience, they will score critical hits with more frequency.

There are five levels of critical hit, ranging from:

CRITICAL - 2x damage

CRUSHING CRITICAL - 4x damage

OBLITERATING CRITICAL - 8x damage

ANNIHILATINGLY POWERFUL CRITICAL - 16x damage

WORLD-SHATTERING CRITICAL - 32x damage

Critical hit pendants are an artefact that not only allow an adventurer the chance to get extra critical hits while bashing, but also allow the chance of scoring the harder hits, no matter what their level of experience. These pendants, in order of effectiveness from least to greatest, are the Fire pendant, Blood pendant, and Stygian pendant.
