Critical Hit: Difference between revisions

The chance of a critical has several variables, though the base range in all Dragon Quest games is '''1/64'''. Certain characters have a better chance of getting critical hits than others, such as [[Tsarevna Alena]]. A character's vocation can also determine whether or not that character will get a critical hit; for example, the [[martial artist]] has a better chance of getting a critical hit than a [[mage]].

Certain weapons can increase the chances of a character getting a critical hit, such as the [[Hela hammer]] or [[Headman's Axe]]. Such weapons tend to have a very low accuracy to balance their power. Additionally, weapon skill sets featured in [[Dragon Quest VIII]] and [[Dragon Quest IX|IX]] will improve a character's chances of performing a critical hit from 1/64 to 1/16 if they raise their rank in the skill high enough.
