Increased Critical Spell Chance Modifier?

General

Hi! I have a question. First I’d like to explain the situation.

I’m playing a Mage and I’m doing pretty well, early on. I just came across an item that grants 35% Increased Spell Critical Strike Chance, after equipping it my modifier goes up by 1%, instead of the 35%… Why is that? I’m posting a screenshot of the situation. Increased Spell Chance.zip (3.8 MB)

Am I interpreting the item ability wrong? Does it not have that effect?

Base spell critical strike chance value is 5% so 5x1.35=6.75% and I guess it rounds down to 6%. But yeah, it’s increasing the base 5% value by 35%.

An item like this adds to the base critical value, being +(3-7)% melee critical strike chance (in this example), like you imagine the 35% Increased Spell Critical Strike Chance does in your example.

As noted by @AndrewTilley, it’s a matter of increased verses added
