Hit range: 0 - 50, crit 51-75, rest is blah blah.
Add 10% crit reduction from resilience:
Hit range: 0 - 60, crit 61-75, rest is blah blah.
How do they "not know" if CRIT_FLOOR - ROLL < RESILIENCE_REDUCTION (above example: rolled 66 .. 61 - 56 = 5, which is < 10, therefore it would have been a crit).
This is making SOME assumptions about how the system is designed, but as we know that crits eat hits, then resilience obviously eats them back, so it's an edge case between these two - if it's honestly that difficult, it's due to bad design.
