There is a heavy overlap in that scale due to the awkward terminology: 3 is the same as 2, and is 95% the same as 1. 4 is 95% the same as 2.

In HW, the scale is:

W1: Never fumble, succeed 95%
W2: Never fail, critical 95%
W3: Always critical

Levels beyond W3 are meaningless except for relative comparison with other equivalent levels.
