A '''critical table''' is a table that lists all the possible critical damage messages seen when an attack is made. Most often, these critical messages are seen when an attack is made with a weapon, which usually deals damage in the types of [[slashing]], [[crushing]], or [[piercing]]. [[Bolt spell]]s also have their own critical tables based on the type of bolt used, which include the elements of [[fire]], [[ice]], [[vibe]], [[acid]], and [[lightning]], in addition to other critical tables such as [[unbalance (critical table)|unbalance]]. |
|||
In addition to the critical rank messaging, the table will often include [[hitpoint]] damage, status effects (stuns, knockdowns, limb loss) and [[Wound|injuries]] (levels 1, 2 and 3) associated with a particular critical rank/body location combination. |

A critical table lists all the injury (including death) messaging for a specific damage type. The table is divided into thirteen body locations with each body location further sub-divided into either ten critical ranks (0 to 9), or for unarmed combat system damage, twelve ranks (0 to 11).
In addition to the critical rank messaging, the table will often include hitpoint damage, status effects (stuns, knockdowns, limb loss) and injuries (levels 1, 2 and 3) associated with a particular critical rank/body location combination.
