This would be consistent with life taps where if the damage component crits the heal component also crits.

I've never done controlled test with Sousiphon, but on my SK when Mana Sieve used to crit, I was definitely gaining more power than listed on the spell.

OK, but ACT will not see it... and when you are trying to see what's your %age crit, you are obliged to not take those spells into account.

KC today : all mobs are green even though they have 3 arrows.
Computing with deleting all spells that do not crit :
average 39.95 !

seems correct to say that critic rate varies depending on mob's level !

We know it is correct, it was stated by a dev quite a while ago and even tested!

Your face was stated by a dev!

The dev said that the crit con-scaling "wasn't that much".

It's not, against up to +5 levels. After 5 levels it starts to dip a lot.

So many things have been said, stated, and proven... But can change, can"t they ?
I don't remember any true parsing with a computed curve based on statistics.

I'm 80, of course, and I see that I DO NOT crit correctly against mobs in upper seb. What level are they ? around mine. If I get 35 % instead of the 40 I should have, this means I loose a bit more than 10 PERCENT of my possible crits. "not that much" ? well, depends what you call "much".

All those mobs are yellow to me, I suppose that if they were red I would loose 20 or 30 % ?

Hey if you have a 50% chance to crit, remember its a 50% chance not 50% gaurentee crit rate :D

Although even against high cons, like yellow chelsith trash I never noticed my crits suffering too bad.

Well if you have a 50% chance to crit, after 2/3 hours of fight you should be around 50, this is just statistics ! just like my KC stats.
Now, about "suffering bad" if you don't COMPUTE your statistics, you will not notice going from 40% to 35%, even though this is a 12 percent loss. Moreover some spells never crit !

Is there someone with 80%+ in here who can compute ?
