If im right with Critical Strike Multiplier is Critical Hit Damage right?
ty
Yes yes yes
Yes, the only oddity is that 200% crit multi is actually a x2 modifier rather than 300% as most people doing the maths would expect (& the rest of the game deals with multipliers).
I still donāt know why people think this sometimes.
Simply said, the Critical Strike multiplier is:
How much damage in total a critical hit is doing
Not
How much extra damage a Critical Hit is doing
Because theyāre doing the maths differently in different places with the same % numbers.
With % more & % increased the maths is Base x (1 + %), with crit multi itās Base x %. If they removed the % from it & just had it as x2, thatād be fine & easily understandable.
Eh? 200% of X is 2X.
People thinking it should be 3X donāt know how maths works.
Itās not about how the math works, itās about reading and understanding a stat and then applying the appropriate math to it.
I am not good at math, but still i donāt understand why people donāt understand it.
I mean even some of the veteran player do this wrong sometimes, so there is obviously somekind of issue.
Maybe the character sheet and game guide should be even more clear, dunno
Or they could just remove the % from it.
You mean Crit Multi = 2x?
And Stats on Items being ā+ 0,8 Crit Multiā ?
Yes.
sigh minimum character requirements
One day we will have cool tooltips and every skill will simply show you its Crit % and Crit Multi
And the crit multi will still confuse people, especially if itās along side other % modifiers.
That may be true but I have to say this very thread is the first ever Iāve heard that there are people āsomewhereā who interpret 200% of something to mean 3x.
Itās very hard to find any reference, i searched through the forums a bit, since in most threads the crit multi was not the āmainā subject, itās hard to find examples, but i can assure you this got confused at least half a dozen times from various people hre on the forums.
