Critical Hit
Critical Hits are attacks that, by chance, do greater more damage and imparts a short side effect. The indicator for the effect is a ring of tweak icons.
Chance of a critical hit is 5% + 5% if it's an ambush (they can't see you when you fire) + anything from items and augs + bonuses from your skills, all divided by 1 + the targets critical hit resistance. Healing critical hits are affected by critical resistance.
Note: you cannot critical hit an asteroid or an envelopment. Splash, area of effect damage does not critical hit. Deathblossom does critical hit.
