How important is the Critical Hit skill?

I've read elsewhere that Critical Hit and Windmill should be raised together. As far as I've read around here and other places, Critical Hit isn't even mentioned that much, if at all.

Sounds important, but I've never seen a repeated case of someone giving it equal importance to Windmill.

Critical isn't all that great right now. Its costly exp.
However it should be ranked at one point or another, since the damage boost works on every skill. Do it in your own leisure pace.

The rate of critical does not change directly.

If ur any kind of attacker by theory its fairly important, as it applies to all ur attacks. But the Ap cost even at the early ranks is pretty high (i believe 3ap just to learn it), so that may be its downfall at the beginning and is why many ppl settle for ranking windmill early.

Windmill because of:

a) its versatility (attack, mob, counter)
b) its stat boosts (+will, + str)
c) the fact that it becomes harder and harder to rank as ur power level increases.

I'd like to point out that Critical training does not involve power level, so it can be done with ease at any point in the game. Okay no, thats a lie, since its not easy, regardless of it being involved with power level or not.

In any case, theres no power level involved in training this skill, so it can be done at any time.

In any case, counter at rank F adds 50% of the total damage.
At rank 1, it hadds 150% of the total damage.

Windmill in itself isn't extremely powerful. It fails compared to attacks like smash and magnum. If you plan on making windmill your main attack (like most people), the first thing to go for after you complete windmill is critical, to back it up instantly.

I HATE bringing maple into this, but what do we put your ability points into in order to back up Fire Arrow? Meditate.

Its not exactly necessary to do in order. I for one, will NOT rank critical after finishing windmill, but rather go straight to magic.

I only did it because it seemed like a good example to help people understand.
I'm going to avoid doing that at all times though.

I wouldn't know anything about Maple Story, horrible game, really.

But that's all besides the point. Personally, I've been a great fan of counter up to now. Rank C does good enough job. I quite honestly see no good in windmill higher than F. I just can't, I've never played this game in foreign servers before to know the whole gist of it.

Although I trust your learned judgement, I cannot relate. As with skills like counter and critical hit, I can definately relate.

I don't know, I guess I'm a bit fustrated at the moment because I never use windmill, yet there's so much talk about how it's so much better and I haven't seen so. Unless it's something for like smashmill, in which case rank F seems to suffice.

I'd say it's more important for Ice/Archery users.
