Hit: Only takes place on a hit.
Miss: Only takes place on a miss.
Effect: Always happens.
If there is a line of text indented under any of those, it is linked to that line. So
Hit:
___Class Feature: Blank
That would only happen on a hit.
Miss: Only takes place on a miss.
Effect: Always happens.

Anything listed under a Hit: section occurs on a successful attack.
Anything listed under a Miss: section occurs on a failed attack.
Anything listed under an Effect: section occurs. Period.

Some of the original powers had effects that were only on a hit. Those are easy to pick out because they are indented under the hit line. For example:
HIT: blah blah blah
EFFECT: blah blah blah
That type of effect happens only on a hit.
The most thourough example I can think of is:
HIT: This happens on a hit.
. EFFECT 1: This is an effect that happens only on a hit.
MISS: This happens on a miss.
. EFFECT 2: This is an effect that happens only on a miss.
EFFECT 3: This is an effect that happens regardless of a hit or miss.
HIT: blah blah blah
EFFECT: blah blah blah
That type of effect happens only on a hit.
