Critical strike avoidance

@epicrpg

question: does anybody know how much damage crits do? is it double normal damage?

Let’s resume in “critical hits kills you”.
That’s it.

[Sensiistar]

that’s the same as normal hit

[epicrpg]

so just thought of another question

if you have 100% crit avoidance, this means you won’t be crit. So I suppose that also means that a stat like % reduced bonus damage from critical strikes has no effect?

Does anyone know if 100% “less bonus damage taken from crits” would be the same as 100% crit avoidance? That’s how I interpreted the guide info but maybe I’m not understanding correctly.

Avoidance at 30% means that you convert 30% of critical hits to regular hits.
Less dmg taken from crits at 30% means that critical strike multiplier of every critical hit is multiplied by 0.7.
So at 100% they are both equal - turning critical hit into regular hit.

Hi,

is the stat Reduced Bonus Damage Taken from Critical Strikes shown anywhere on the character stats screen? I couldnt find it. However, Critical Strike Avoidance is actually shown in the Defense tab.

No, it isn’t. It’s a fairly recently added ‘general stat’ (it used to be relegated to just one pair of boots and two-hand wpns).

That said, EHG has indicated they intend to do a big overhaul on the character sheet info (that did a design overhaul for 1.0) and hopefully that will be forth coming soon.
