Jayshames Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Ok, just a quick thread to hopefully put my confusion to rest. So I just seen a Shadow in PvP who was in full WH and seemed to know what he was doing, but he had 76% surge and 0% critical, and I believe he was using the tank tree. Is there a reason for 0% crit? As im currently leveling a shadow of my own. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycao Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 its a bug, it is quite impossible to not have any crit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayshames Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 I thought that, but either way he had really low crit, because not one of his equipped items had critical rating, all power+surge, so is there a reason for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterFeign Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Even if he had power and surge, willpower does give a little crit, and the default is something like 21% now I think, if you count the agent buff, and the passive companion buff.

cultivatedmass Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) its a bug, it is quite impossible to not have any crit. just swap out all crit rating mods. would leave you with 25% or something. I thought that, but either way he had really low crit, because not one of his equipped items had critical rating, all power+surge, so is there a reason for this? probably consistent damage with a smaller chance of insane damage instead of lower damage with higher chance of better damage.

Envyyyyyyy Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 In the spec he's in you get 2 abilities that auto crit. Plus you have force potency which also crits 2 skills. Also you get a 15% increase in crit to your melee abilities. So you're actually getting a lot of crit from procs/skill tree. This allows you to stack more power making those skills hit much harder. <3 But don't take my word for it. Reaaaadingggg rainbowwww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotlu-Hunlon Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 The 'Inspect Player' feature is very often bugged, I would not trust that value seeing as if he has *any* willpower then his Crit chance will be >0% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayshames Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Ah ok, for some reason the whole main attribute giving critical completely left my mind. Suppose it's more for sustained damage, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekhiun Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Dont forget that he gets 3 auto crits every 1m25s or something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeJagoff Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) I thought that, but either way he had really low crit, because not one of his equipped items had critical rating, all power+surge, so is there a reason for this? a lot of assassins have 0 crit, just power/surge. As others have mentioned, recklessness gives you 2 charges of an auto crit basically. With all willpower augments, then power/surge only, and all the datacrons, you can usually get crit rating to ~25% with 0 actual crit stat. Also, if you go to askmrrobot and build a toon with specific gear/mods, you can see where all the stats will be at.
