New crits on weapons and 4/5 piece bonus info

[shaggyboomboom]

Could someone please post the actual changes here? All I hear is how the Devs are terrible and all, but I would like to see the new crit values of weapons and armor sets.

As far as I’m aware +#% crit weapons were changed to now give +1% crit chance with melee power added to compensate.

+2% crit before
Now +1% crit +15 melee power

+3% crit before
Now +1% crit +30 melee power

+4% crit before
Now +2% crit +30 melee power


Annihilator, Ruin and Merc all had their (4)/(5) bonuses swapped. So to get the appropriate bonus block/crit/parry from each set, you need to have all 5 pieces equipped.

I haven’t looked at all the weapons so some things might be different, don’t take this info as fact.

Edit: Wrong figures oops :^)

Forcing players to grind whole set just to get 1 good bonus. Thats just pathetic.

There is no compensation at all. This is bs too.

The 2h bloodfist axe has 2 crit 1 parry and 45 melee power. I'd like to know gutslime's stats cause they have been nerfed too

You guys need to focus more on your base damage before worrying so much about crit. I found the changes to the weapon makes me hit quite a bit harder than before.. I'll take 45 melee power over 3% crit any day, especially when melee power is such a rarity on gear itemization at the moment.

I forget who said it on the forums during live, but it holds true.. who cares if you crit 90% of the time when youre critting for 400 damage?
