No such thing as "almost impossible". If a Critical always succeeds the odds can't drop below 1 in 54.

Then if you roll every second the Power of Reiteration comes to your aid. 10 shots at a natural 3 or 4 rises to approx. a cumulative 1 in 5.

The Suffocation thing isn't quite as unfavorable as I thought it was. The subject does lose 1 FP per second. This would actually be too fast for he Xena trick and might be too much for reality as well.
