Crit types clarification

Crit, and melee crit. If you have a spell such as erasing strike that counts as both then are these types added together, or the highest, or are they calculated independently?

Erasing Strike is a melee skill, not a spell, per the tags.

Melee crit is flat added crit chance (ie, base crit chance), which is added to the skill’s base crit chance (usually 5%) then multiplied by any % increased crit chance modifiers.

Right, so having 17% on both in character sheet would give you 34%?

If you have 17% on both, you have 17% chance to crit with Erasing Strike, and 17% chance to crit with the Void Rifts it procs, which are spells.
