I think insta-kill works like this:

The percentage stated in in skill/NP description shows the chance of the effect's activation.

If it does activate, it still has to "break through" the enemy's death resistace. So if the death resistance is 40%, you have 60% chance of a succesfull insta-kill.

So it's like the effect will always activate for Stheno and King Hassan, and might kill the enemy, unlike Scathach Assassin, who only has 330~70% chance of activating the effect, though for each enemy individually.
