Okay, I know it was taken from Star Wars, but reading the WotC website I found this small problem that is making me uneasy...
So, a skeleton, that is normally immune to critical hits is not anymore when you use this system, is that so? If that is not the case, then the immune to critical hits creeps now have a larger damage threshold that they have penalties for being at?
Just hope those that play Star Wars can help, or else, someone who doesn't and already has an insight on how it works.
Cheers,

Damage Reduction
Damage reduction functions normally, reducing damage dealt by attacks. However, any critical hit automatically overcomes a creature's damage reduction, regardless of whether the attack could normally do so. For example, a critical hit against a skeleton (DR 5/bludgeoning) overcomes the creature's damage reduction even if it was hit with a weapon that does not deal bludgeoning damage.
