no, not really

like what i've posted before and sir_lance_bb want to tell you is, that

dex is no longer the single stat fpr crit strikes, it affects the weap damage now directly

the stat: crit strike is just increasing the chance of critical strike by a set amount:

lets says due perf ratio you have a chance of 25% to crit, with that crit strike stat +5 you now have formula based a chance of lets say 28%

that means in conclusion you cant set 1cs=3dex, becouse it depends on the weapon you use:

charm it could be 5int
dagger it could be 5dex
club it could be 5str

and so on


@nick: your charm is maybe the best mid charm for daggers, but by far not even nearly the best mq charm ingame, that is for now the charm of TT with 5xstr 3xdex or whatever it is, which adds way more damage to HH class

The game is no longer what it was when you played. All your testing means nothing now. All melee mechanics have changed. And wilds are better usable by all classes

And all that testing before ratio update is USELESS nick crit no longer is directly related to dexterity

Only reason I bought Dex gear was the ratio update. I used to own 100% str gear until ratios came out. (I haven't been gone that long)
I believe you again are incorrect with what you're talking about here...



That charm is why I said 2nd best HH charm. The Trust actually has it in thread right now for 100k. Surprised they're selling the sexy.

Lol crit is crit thats like saying armor piece is equal to str or dex aswell seeing how it negates def and causes higher dmg and crits. Or mind numb is int.same adjournment can be made about a few stat. But they are only what they are nothing more

there's simply no way to equate cs to dex. as been said dex mods the weapon crit mods the chance of the weapon doing more damage. that damage can't be formulated because there's a variance on critted damage, clicking, monster defense, weapon type/ee/stats/prophs. Best example I can personally give to show the vaule of cs is this.

Playing many games with outcast while myself and their member were both on ninja's using daggers and dex gear; amount of clicks the same, using the same abilities at the same % released. I was simple blown away in total damage and avg even though I had 10 more proph, 40more ee, 40 more total dex. All due to their dex/cs set up. It's that simple on the effectiveness of cs if you threw a dex amount on it then it doesnt add up to what it does in game and it can't due to the above mentioned variables. In the current melee game set up higher dex = higher base weapon damage, higher cs = your weapon over achieving it's listed stats.

this can be tested yourself with cs glyphs and compare your runs.

Ur statement is correct except for a small detail... Crits do ignore armor! So no higher dmg from ap for crits.

Actually he paid 5200. But yeah, it's worth his price and more...

This isn't about Nick or his overpriced gear, it's about Crit strike, which I think is one of the best mods we have left in LS.

No they dont. If they did Mind numb would not cause me to crit for more than the norm. crits are affected by defense.




i disagree. its not a wild heal. no use to me.

Using your criteria, I guess my chain is no good as one of the best in game either then

Stop having such a narrow point of view.
