Is it 100% crit while traited, or was it just previously unaffected if you used it from stealth?

I can’t log in yet, and have seen cases argued both ways on other forums.

It was bugged a while back and didn’t work in any way, now it does what it’s supposed to do: the hit you land from stealth is a critical hit, nothing else.

Hidden killer its self wasn’t changed. You get 100% crit chance when attacking from stealth.

If I understand the patch notes on C&D and hidden killer. If you were C&D while stealth it was not effected by hidden killer and you were not granted 100% crit chance. Now if you are stealth (traited with hidden killer) and C&D some one, it will crit 100% of the time. Not sure why you would C&D out of stealth but I think it was more of a bug fix.

It is as Zikory has stated.

Note that the whole reason there is so much confusion is most likely because no one ever noticed that CnD didn’t crit with HK since no one intentionally uses CnD while stealthed.

So that’s what it meant. I’ve never C&D outa stealth so I never noticed or knew what it was talking about. XD I though “Didn’t they fix that already?”
