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