The numbers to hit (build toward, never past)

Penetration → 18,200 — 4-man dungeon & 12-man trial boss armor. Build TOWARD minus group-supplied Major Breach/Crusher. Past it is wasted. Overland = 9100.
Crit chance — 21,912 rating = 100%.
Crit damage — caps at 125% (base 50%). This drives the Thief↔Shadow mundus choice: Thief when crit% < 53.53 × crit-damage(decimal), else Shadow.
