-'''Critical Weighting''' is a property of weapons that adds "phantom" damage to an attack for the purpose of determining the severity of the critical damage of an attack.
-== Example ==
-The amount of phantom damage added is half the weighting value of the weapon.  For example, a heavily crit weighted weapon (which has a numerical value of 9 to 11, but for these purposes we'll say 10) does five extra phantom damage to an attack.  For example, a character attacks and hits a creature wearing soft leather armor for 15 damage.  Since the crit divisor of soft leather armor is 5, it would normally be a level 3 critical hit.  With a heavily crit weighted weapon, it would be a level 4 critical hit, but the attack still does 15 non-crit damage.  Critical hits also add a certain amount of damage, so the damage will appear to be actually greater if the critical rank increases due to the critical weighting.
-(Note: There is some variation on critical hits.  It could be a level 3 crit plus or minus a random number)
