Hello , i have a quick question about the Acidbane node in Chthonic Fissure after Acid Skin. Is the Crit Chance only affected by specific poison damage increases or do unspecific increases like “Damage over Time” also effect it.
The Acid Skin ailment does 2 things, it does poison damage over time & it makes the affected target have a 20% chance to be crit (like max stacks of Crit Vulnerability). The two things are unrelated & don’t affect each other.
The crit chance has nothing to do with poison or DoTs. It’s most likely like crit vulnerability & adds a flat 20% chance to be crit after the hitting player’s % increased chance to crit is taken into account (so as a player you would only need 80% crit chance to always crit a target affected by Acid Skin).
Thanks for the answer, i know what the basic Acid Skin does but the question was specific to the Follow up node after Acid Skin.
Acidbane:
Your hits against enemies cursed by Acid Skin have additional base critical strike chance per 10% of your global increase poison damage.
What i wanted to know is if this is just affected by specific poison damage increases or also by unspecific increases like “Damage over time” because in the Last Epoch tools build Planner increases to Damage over time get added to Poison Damage over time in the stats.
Ahh, sorry. If a modifier increases your poison damage stat on the character screen then it would be picked up by Acidbane. So yes % increased DoT would be taken into account by that node.
ok thanks
