Mastering your weapon takes time and dedication. A high level warrior understands their weapons far more intimately than the average fighter, able to leverage its strengths in phenomenal ways when critically striking.
The bonus varies based on the weapons damage type.
Stabbing:
* Cause a deep, lasting wound. After two combat rounds, it hemmoraghes
again, dealing 2% of the targets total health.
Cutting:
* Viciously slash your opponent, briefly overcoming their defenses with
your ferocity. For the next two combat rounds, your opponent takes a
+10 penalty to their armor class.
Bludgeoning:
* Brutally smash your opponent. Knock them down for two combat rounds.
Whipping:
* With quick skill and precision, wrap your whip around your opponents
airway, silencing them for two rounds.
Stinging:
* Your critical hit shocks your opponents nervous system, reducing all of
the opponents saves by 8%.
Slashing:
* You sweep your blade out in a wide arch, catching multiple foes in the
strike. Your primary strike does normal, not critical damage.
Additionally, you deal 1/4th damage to either 1 or two foes, depending
on if your weapon is one or two handed.
Piercing:
* Your vicious wound causes sustained blood loss, reducing damage by 4
for two rounds.
Chopping:
* Your ravaging strike deals additional damage. Your critical strikes
deal an additional 10% damage.
Clawing:
* You rip your foe brutally, causing a deep, lasting wound and sustained
bleeding. After 4 rounds, deal 2% of the targets total health. During
this time, their speed is also reduced by 1.
Shooting:
* With crystal clarity and swift motions, you let loose an additional
projectile in the same round. Your critical does not deal bonus
damage but you immediately make another melee strike against your
opponent.
