&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Slash [[critical table]]:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This table lists the [[critical]] messaging caused by the slash [[:Category:Damage Types|damage type]]. Attempts at slashing are generally made with long, sharpened blades that typically can also be used to [[Puncture critical table|puncture]] and/or [[Crush critical table|crush]]. Injuries of this type are most often caused by [[Attack strength|(AS)]] based [[Weapon table list|weapon]] attacks. The damage values ([[Hitpoint]]s) in this table represent attacks in this category.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to weapon attacks, slash criticals may also be caused by certain spells, [[Natural weapons|natural creature attacks]], and environmental hazards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note: Damage from non-weapon attacks, especially [[CS]] attacks, will often be different than those listed in this table, but the messaging, status effects and injury levels will be the same.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Legend==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*A - Amputation (limb loss)&lt;br /&gt;
*F - Fatal critical&lt;br /&gt;
*K - Knockdown&lt;br /&gt;
*R - [[Injury]] level (rank 1, 2 or 3)&lt;br /&gt;
*S - Stun w/number of rounds&lt;br /&gt;
*x - Unknown stun round&lt;br /&gt;
