Kind of a newbie question, but what does the daily login boost increase?

I can assume one of them is ryou gained but I'm not sure about the other two.

How does the critical stat work? Is the number a %? Is it 2x your normal attack? Is there a way to increase the critical dmg?

I've tested myself using a bow to a same monster, I noticed my normal attack does ~312 damage after shooting it for ~30 times, then I recorded 20 critical dmgs, they're in descending dmg,

705,

average= 769, assuming the significant frequent critical is from the 2nd row till the last row, there's 84 dmg variance, if I take the mid value from here, 705+84/2= 747,

the critical= 747/312

= 2.394230769x of a normal attack,


if I take the one abnormally high critical to calculate how many x it's of a normal attack, 1,067 dmg, it's 3.419871795x of a normal attack. So otonashi, does this confirm that criticals do 2x normal attack dmg?

No, it does not. In fact, your observation that criticals do more than 2 times normal damage is correct at low damage values. Based off the observations of myself and others, critical damage seems to consist of a flat value and a percentage value, and also seems to have less effect on higher damage values. However, for most attacks, a certain amount of Dex (presumably 100, though not extensively tested) will give you approximately 2 times the normal damage of the skill assuming no other sources of critical force.

For example, attacking with with an Oni Dagger without Sword Affinity with high enough Dex will give you less than 100 damage on a non-crit but up to 500 on a crit (at least, from what I remember from testing critical in Beta). On the other hand, attacks that do extremely high amounts of damage will crit for slightly less than 2 times damage (according to reliable sources, I don't pay much attention to the amount of damage I deal with my skills while grinding but I'm pretty sure this is correct).

There also appear to be times where criticals do more than they should, like your recording of 1067 damage.

Do you know if heals or cures can critical from Dex?

They cannot.

I can't find the NPC that sells cloths. I remember that there used to be one in every town in beta version! :c

There's a giant, tongue mirror that sells the basic starting selection clothes sets and a few other things but the costumes are from gacha. These are in every town :P
