make all critical hits treat b.def and b.mdf as 1

    i'd like the ability for critical hits to ignore defense. rather than a plugin to allow separate damage formulas for crits, which would have to be put in for every ability, i'd like a plugin that makes it so that: whenever a critical hit registers in battle, any damage formula that includes a value for b.def or b.mdf is calculated as 1, instead of the true value. This would effectively make it so that all critical strikes ignore a target's defense stats.

    You may try the plugin code below. It replaces defense and magic defense with 1 in the damage formulas. Damage is still multiplied by the critical multiplier afterwards. Did you want that multiplier turned off?

    The critical multiplier has been turned off in the version below.
