Melee Splash

How deos melee splash work with critical? If I crit with my main skill and splash two other targets, will the splashed targets also crit, or is crit rolled for each enemy hit individually?

I'd be interested as well. Someone said the hits roll seperately and someone else said it they roll together.

It's unclear in terms of splash, but I believe it counts as 1 attack and the splash profits from crit as well and counts as a crit, correct?

I... Just answered that question. Crit is always rolled per skill activation. The splash is part of the same skill activation.

I saw that bro. But you are not a developer nor did you quote one, so how can we know this is correct? :)
This game is complex and mechanics are not always the same between skills. There are numerious examples...

Melee Splash is almost must-have support for Infernal Blow. This combo releases full power of Infernal Blow - when you hit a pack and kill just one mob, it explodes and causes chain reaction which explodes all mobs hit by Melee Splash and wiping everything in vicinity. Even rare mob can just vaporize when surrounding normal mobs are exploded. Works very well with increased fire/elemental damage (but not weapon/spell ones, just general), fire penetration gem, Flammability and Elemental Weakness. Increased AoE from quality gems and passives raises it's power to absolutely new level.
I think thesame rule applies to Glacial Hammer too - culling effect on frozen enemies will work for any target hit with Melee Splash. However, i think that if you want to use Infernal Blow, use it as main skill. You may try Avatar of Fire with it as well.
