English term or phrase: critical hit
Definition from Giant bomb:
Critical hits are attacks that cause extra damage in many games that use health, or some other numerical unit that represents victory and defeat. The recipient of a critical hit will typically take an amount of damage that exceeds the normal damage value range of the attack. The chance of scoring a critical his is in general dependent on a variety of factors defined by the games in which they can occur.

Example sentence(s):
  • From then onward titles like Final Fantasy (1987), Meridian 59 (1996), Pokémon Red & Green (1996), and a plethora of other single-player and multiplayer RPGs began putting their own twist on critical hits. Some games even let you build your character around improving their crit chances, like Rogues in the original World of Warcraft (2004). Inverse
  • There are two general methods of handling critical hits: In the first method, they simply do extra damage, usually multiplying the base damage by some number. In the second method, random results are generated from a "table" of possible effects, which range from extra damage to Subsystem Damage to instant death. TV Tropes
  • A higher haste value doesn't necessarily have to reflect a higher amount of critical hits. Many games use two different stats for calculations - base stats, and modifiers. (D&D is a great example). Why not calculate critical hits based on the base of the haste stat, but still reflect the critical chance? Game Development Stack Exchange

Kritischer Treffer


Definition from own experience or research:
Wenn man bei einem Angriff einen kritischen Treffer (kurz: Krit) landet, richtet dieser Angriff extra Schaden an. Schaden, der durch kritische Treffer verursacht wird, heißt kritischer Schaden.

Example sentence(s):
  • Nun du hast mit deiner Spielfigur einen bestimmten Rahmen in dem du Schaden austeilst. Sagen wie der Rahmen bewegt sich bei deiner Figur zwischen 45-60 Schaden. Ein kritischer Treffer wird nur selten erreicht und bewegt sich dann in einem höheren Schadensbereich, also sagen wir mal 80. - gutefrage  
  • Ein kritischer Treffer (kurz: Krit od. crit) kann mit normalen Angriffen und manchen Fähigkeiten erzielt werden. Für gewöhnlich richtet ein kritischer Treffer doppelten Schaden (200% Schaden) an, welcher sich aber durch Gegenstände und Runen manipulieren lässt. Der Schaden, den man durch kritische Treffer erzielt, nennt sich kritischer Schaden. - League of Legends Wiki  
  • Ein kritischer Treffer an sich verursacht zusätzlichen Schaden bei einem Feind. Ein spezieller Sound wird beim Treffen eines kritischen Treffers abgespielt und die auftauchenden Schadenszahlen zeigen die größere Schadenshöhe an. Der durch kritische Treffer verursachte Bonusschaden beläuft sich auf Basisschaden × (3 + Kritische Kraft / 50) - Stardew Valley Wiki
