Magic crit details

Does anyone know the specific stats of magic crit skill like if there is a crit penalty or something so i can formulate my build.

 

I sill don’t get magic crit though. Correct me if I am wrong....but I never saw the damage in yellow or whatever indicating it’s a critical hit. Does it mean magic attacks have a low Crit Rate, never critical or just the damage color of critical is the same as critical? Then again as the previous post magic doesn’t miss like melee attacks so I don’t get the magic critical .

 

Magic crit will still show up in yellow and the penalty depends on what method you're using to achieve it. If you're using the weaken ailment method by using element slash, your critical rate and critical damage stats are halved. If you're using the spell burst passive, they are reduced to a quarter.(I'm pretty sure ^^') If you use both, your critical rate and damage are 75% of their total values because the two methods stack.

 

So spellburst -75% crit rate and weaken -50% in both cr and cdmg?

 

There were still some uncertainties with the magic crit of spellburst and weaken status, as they have confirmed there were some problem with them on the official notice.

But to put it simply, magic crit chance from spellburst is 25% of your physical crit. While weaken status would give you 50% value of physical crit into magic crit chance. Its unconfirmed whether they stack or not, but its unlikely. I've tested it a bit myself and they dont seem to stack. Plus weaken is supposed to only deal magic crit with skills with elemental advantage, which render it useless for finale. But there is a chance that the condition has been changed, gotta skim through the threads for that, I forgot most of stuffs after this server problem thingy.

The damage increase doesn't seem worth it as you would also compromise stuff to reach the bare minimum crit. Eitherway I dont think its worth it to build around solely for the magic crit. But if you have spare character slot then, sure.

 

I i thought crit is universal though , but you’re saying crit has a magic side and a physical side? And now I am feeling silly because I think I see my MI spdamage for my halb in yellow, never paid attaention to it since it’s a filler skill.

 

The condition actually did change since after the update my magic crit build from before could no longer crit using the main weapon of the target's weak element which made me really confused. I could however crit using any element BUT the target's weak element, including neutral now. Finale is still too slow of a skill to crit using weaken though(unless maybe with swift/GSW? I haven't tried it though ^^') But even if it did I feel like a smited finale would still be better. Burst however seems to gain a lot from crit as I've reached up to 530k damage with it.

 

Maybe magic crit was made for magic sword to work before this it didnt seem to work at all except using one skill(element slash). And i dont think spamming burst skill is wise idea because proration which is the bread and butter of mage skill damage because mages cant really spam. Swift already caps on motion speed. And some bosses mage need to switch to swift anyways. As for Mages are already sitting ducks if u decrease their defense by -100% they are sure to die everytime. However thanks for contributing.

 

The default of magic critical chance is 0. You need weaken or spellburst to increase that
