{{Mb|=Deadly Strike}} gives a percentage chance of a critical hit, doubling physical attack damage when successful (even when barehanded). Overlay normally displayed when successful may be obscured by others (which gave rise to the myth that poison damage prevents it from being applied).
 
*Since conversion of physical damage to another damage type occurs after it is applied, it can also double the converted damage of the following:

Critical hit overlay.

Deadly Strike gives a percentage chance of a critical hit, doubling physical attack damage when successful (even when barehanded). Overlay normally displayed when successful may be obscured by others (which gave rise to the myth that poison damage prevents it from being applied).


Two sources 100 - (100-DS * 100-CS /100)
100 - (100-DS * 100-MCS /100)
Three sources 100 - (100-DS * 100-CS * 100-MCS /10000) [1]


  • Barbarian mercenary, Valkyrie and Iron Golem have 5% chance of applying critical hit, doubling all attack damage types. This is calculated independently of other sources, so there is a chance of applying quadruple physical damage. Combined % chance of double physical attack damage only is as follows:


Two sources 5+(0.9*DS)
Three sources (100 - (0.95 * 100-DS * 100-CS /100) ) - (0.05 * (100 - (100-DS * 100-CS /100) ) )


  • % Chance of quadruple physical attack damage is as follows:


Two sources 0.05*DS
Three sources 0.05 * (100 - (100-DS * 100-CS /100) )


  • Percentage increase to average physical attack damage of a higher chance of critical damage is 100 * (higher chance - lower chance) / (100 + lower chance). For example, increasing Deadly Strike from 80% to 100% increases average physical attack damage from 180% to 200%, or by ~11% (100 * (100-80) / (100+80) ).
