- For AC 15-21, the non-Karmic Dice crit chance is 2-3%, but the AC 23 rate jumps up to 8.5%.
Both Karmic and Non-Karmic sets show a jump of ~6%, indicating it's not necessarily true that Karmic Dice alone result in being crit more often at higher AC values.
Because this caught my eye, I did a quick 200 Attk NON-Karmic test with a PC with a very high AC 26, just to see if this would bring out any subtle "Non-Karmic" boosts for enemies.

This was against Erna & Yerle in the Temple, mixing it up with ranged and melee attacks. They couldn't hit AC 26, even on a Nat 20, so it went pretty quick.

Just at a cursory glance, I didn't see anything unexpected.

200 Rolls
8 - Nat 20s
8 - Nat 1s
