PRAGMATA features a few useful abilities with clear uses, and some whose benefits are not apparent. This is the case of Critical Shot , an early-game ability that can make your life much easier in some unexpected ways.

Finishing enemies with a Critical Shot , even without having it upgraded at level 3 or without having already collected certain mods that enhance the ability, is always worth it , for two reasons:
- Every bot defeated with a Critical Shot drops extra Lunafilament . This makes it easier and faster to upgrade every weapon, ability, and hacking node to its maximum level.
- During the animation, you are fully invincible , allowing you to ease off the pressure from enemies if you are surrounded by them.
Critical Shot can be unlocked after completing Sector 01: Solar Power Plant . Access the Unit Printer in the Shelter , navigate to the Abilities Tab, and you will find the ability. It requires 1 Pure Lunum to unlock.
- Damage the enemy until it is in critical health to make the Critical Shot hacking node appear on the Hacking Matrix .
- Navigate the Hacking Matrix and go through the node, successfully completing the hack to knock the enemy down .
- Perform the finishing blow by pressing the R2/RT / ZR button while the enemy is open.
