| - | Critical hits are one of the most common attack modifiers. \\ | + | Critical hits are one of the most common attack modifiers. When a character lands a critical hit, they get a bonus to their attack power depending on the character and type of weapon equipped. Critical hits are indicated visually by a screen flash, except for Jump, which gives no such indication. Note that this screen flash can be disabled in FE.\\ |

| - | Can only hit 1 elemental weakness | + | An attack can only hit 1 elemental weakness, and 1 race weakness. However, the two can be combined, such a using an ElvenBow with Ice Arrows against Rubicant in the Elements fight (a Mage with a strong weakness to Ice), resulting in a 16x damage multiplier.\\ |

| + | =====Note about damage per hit===== | ||
| + | While attack damage is generally described as being Attack Power multiplied by a random number between 1 and 1.5, it is actually calculated as follows: | ||
| + | - Divide the Attack Power by 2. If the result is greater than 255, set it to 255 | ||
| + | - Get a random number between 0 and this value | ||
| + | - Add that number to the original (full) Attack Power | ||
| + | Because of this, the highest possible final result will be the original Attack Power + 255. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Note that this only comes into play when Attack Power is above 510 (255*2). In vanilla FF4, this may be most noticeable with Zeromus' | ||

| + | NOTE: This random value applies to most forms of both physical and magical damage. It is applied //after// any bonuses from Berserk, Jump, etc. and bonuses due to a target having Mini or Toad status, but //before// any elemental and racial damage bonuses, before the target' | ||
