Though I'm accustomed to "MANGLES" instead of "You did 800 damage!" I liked the idea of BroodWarMud's (about the only think I liked...) number damage, and amount damage. So you could

"Poke the poor defenceless zerg egg just barely, which NEARLY KILLS IT!"

Or on the other hand.

"Empty a gauss-gun clip on a heavily-armored tank perfectly, which it barely notices."

So you get rough percentages of both. It seems like it showed damage numbers 'sometimes' which was turned into a skill. That was a good idea too, make it a skill, though if you include critical hits and the like, numbers on those alone are cool too.
