Guild Wars 2

My crit chance says 68% but when I hover over the number it says “chance to hit critical damage 45”. It does this with all my stats where it changes the number. Which is the real one?

edit: actually I just added up my power and looked so I guess its the number you get when you put your cursor over that stat but why exactly does it tell you two different numbers?

They both are. The one that’s visible is the one that is accurate for the level you are downscaled to. When you hover over it, it displays the stat at your actual level in a level appropriate zone.

When the numbers are in green it’s because it was modified by something. It could be because you are downscaled on a map that is lower in level than you are, but it could be also a buff from you or somebody around you : spotter, banners, signets, fury, might, etc. The number you see when you hover is your normal stats without downscaling or buff.

ok that makes since since I’m in a map that’s 20 lowers than me but why exactly is my crit chance in this map higher than my normal crit chance? There are no buffs on me.

I’m at phasmatis corridor

The precision required to get a critical hit changes with your level. At lower levels, you need less precision, so you can easily have a much higher critical hit chance at a lower level if you trait for precision. For more information, read this:
