- Doubles physical attack damage when successful, even when barehanded.
- Since conversion of physical damage to another damage type occurs after it is applied, it can also double the converted damage of the following:
- Magic Arrow
- Fire Arrow
- Cold Arrow
- Lightning Bolt
- Fists of Fire
- Berserk (both the skill itself and its synergy to Concentrate and Frenzy)
- Does not apply to the following:
- Mutually exclusive with Deadly Strike and weapon Mastery or Claw Mastery critical strike: if one is successful then the others don't apply. Combined % chance of double physical attack damage is as follows:
| Two sources | 100 - (100-CS)*(100-DS)/100 |
|---|---|
| 100 - (100-CS)*(100-MCS)/100 | |
| Three sources | 100 - (100-CS)*(100-DS)*(100-MCS)/10000 [1] |
- Non-player units like a Barbarian hireling, Valkyrie and Iron Golem have 5% chance of applying critical damage, 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*CS) |
|---|---|
| Three sources | 100 - (0.95*(100-CS)*(100-DS)/100) - 0.05*(100 - (100-CS)*(100-DS)/100) |
- % Chance of quadruple physical attack damage is as follows:
| Two sources | 0.05*CS |
|---|---|
| Three sources | 0.05*(100 - (100-CS)*(100-DS)/100) |
