&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Puncture [[critical table]]:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This table lists the [[critical]] messaging caused by the puncture [[:Category:Damage Types|damage type]]. Injuries of this type are most often caused by [[Attack strength|(AS)]] based [[Weapon table list|weapon]] attacks. The damage values (hit points) in this table represent attacks in this category. In addition to weapon attacks, puncture criticals may also be caused by certain spells, i.e., [[Spike Thorn (616)]], [[Natural weapons|natural creature attacks]], and environmental hazards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Note: Damage from non-weapon attacks, especially [[CS]] attacks, will often be different than those listed in this table.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
