    I think Xeno pointing to crits and being like 'this is annoying' might stem more from the feeling of being a WAR in HW and having the single hardest hitting abilities in the game and sort of losing out on that with the changes to how things work in SB. It's still more than possible to hit the 33k+ crits on an FC but it's not going to make a huge huge difference over the course of an entire fight. That said, if you're going for exceptionally high rankings on fflogs for example you do worry about where those crits land because unlike DRK or PLD where the damage spread is a lot flatter, WAR invests a lot in their admittedly numerous fell cleaves.

    But if you're like me and trying to fight your way to the top of the pile on Neo Exdeath it's of great interest what exactly gets crit and what doesn't. If you look at this list you can see what I mean with people being really close to each other in the #5->#12 ranking.

    The funny thing is if you take that list and organize it in terms of hardest hitting moves critting, the order of crit % does not match the order that list is in from number 1 to 12. So I don't see this as proving the point, I see it as counter evidence.
