my "increased critical support" gem shows no change to critical strike change


Hello.
Please advise.

I was using an "increased critical strike support" gem for my cold snap of power.
About a week back, i managed to get my cold snap of power to 100% critical strike chance. Today, it went down to around 72. i am using the same weapon as before.

I also observed that removing the support gem no longer shows any effect, on my cold snap.

Thank You.

Sounds like something else has changed in your build - gear, passives etc. It is difficult to pinpoint without seeing your build and profile.
