I have noticed on several threads that people are hitting as high as 114% crit damage modifier with Divinity Runes and Berserkers Amulet….

I don’t understand how this is getting done since I use those and have 30 in critical strikes and I am only at 62%. Is there something I am missing?

Any help would be greatly appreaciated!

36% from Back, Jewelry, and Accessories.
30% from Traits

10% from Food.
4% from Ruby Orbs on Weapons if you so desire.

Is there a website out yet to help with template builds? So I can experiment with stat builds?

Just a reminder how it works; additive not multiplicative:

Normal attack: 1000 damage
Critical attack base: 1500 damage
Critical attack with +50% critical damage: 2000 damage
Critical attack with +100% critical damage: 2500 damage

So if you put every single item you have into Critical Damage, your crits are basically free second attacks of the same ability! If you normally hit for 2k Backstab, a base crit would give 3k damage, and adding + 100% critical damage would give a 5k backstab. Thus like getting another free 2k backstab. Or just + 150% damage… think of it how you will!

And due to being a glass cannon, you will die just as hard.

I got 110%. Rune of divinity is bugged and 6 runes gives you 18% and not 12%.

And thats without orbs in weapons or using food.

So are you saying that 110% is the base 50% plus the 60% is says on the tooltip when you hover over crit chance, or it is actually reading 110% crit damage on the tooltip?

Also, I guess I should specify that I am referring to PvP, so maybe it is not possible to get that high of a +crit damage…
