Guild Wars 2

Currently I am running a thief with full crit damage/crit chance. Ive noticed in the hero panel, once my crit chance goes above 60% the critical chance figure turns green. What is the changing of color in the figures meant to indicate? Im concerned there might be a critical chance cap at 60%, but can’t find any reference to a cap so maybe it means something or maybe an anomaly or bug? I really need to know because at full build + recipes etc I am doing around 70% crit chance and Id hate to think I was wasting stats for ~10% crit chance that isn’t being applied.

Use to mean the stats got adjusted due to having your level adjusted because of where you are.

I sometimes have 90% crit on my thief.
Could be higher if I adjust things a bit.

The green color just means modified/effective/… It also means temporary. For a thief the most likely reason is having Signet of Agility which gives you +precision. It is temporary because you will lose that +precision if/when you activate the signet. You get it back once the skill recharage.

But this is happening in Level 80 areas including Lions Arch, Southsun Cove and World VS World (these areas I can confirm). I assume, being an 80, they wouldn’t be adjusted in these areas as a level 80?

The signit might be it. Ill go test/sandbox it.

EDIT: Confirmed, this appears to be the case. Thx.
