When a critical hit occurs, the unit's current protection (after AP stuff above) is reduced by 25% (rounded down, all divisions are btw). Afterward, the protection DRN is added to that protection to get the protection used against damage. | When a critical hit occurs, the unit's current protection (after AP stuff above) is reduced by 25% (rounded down, all divisions are btw).

+ | FIXME The manual says critical hits reduce prot by 25%, but the code below appears to show a 50% reduction to base prot. Since the manual is wrong on this topic in several ways, can we confirm the code is more accurate? | ||
Note that it is the same DRN roll that is used for both reducing damage and deciding whether a critical hit happened, which leads to critical hits being even more devastating. | Note that it is the same DRN roll that is used for both reducing damage and deciding whether a critical hit happened, which leads to critical hits being even more devastating. |
