Skill Gem Feedback - Critical Weakness - Forum

Awsome! Have to go try out CW now! " Mark_GGG wrote: If you'd been able to get +100% it would suddenly work, but I don't think crit weakness goes that high. Pretty good memory there! It goes up to 99% at maximum level/quality. Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/657756	Posted by dudiobugtron#4663 on Apr 19, 2013, 3:34:56 AM Quote this Post

If you had, say +40% extra damage taken from crits, and took a crit, it multiplied the extra damage by 1.4. Except the '1.4' was treated as an integer variable, and thus cut down to '1'. If you'd been able to get +100% it would suddenly work, but I don't think crit weakness goes that high. Similarly, if you had 15% reduced extra damage taken from crits, such as with the marauder passives (which are the same stat, just with a negative, rather than positive value), it should multiply by 0.85, but this was an integer and thus it multiplied by 0, meaning you took no extra damage from enemy crits. and to think I already liked it, both what it said on the skill and how it worked, and now it actually works a lot better, wow! now I want to go dual curse and add elemental weakness and rape mobs with my gmp/chain triple elemental attacks xD when I read about the fix in the patch notes I was afraid for a nerf, not a boost xD Go GGG!

So the fix on that patch made crit weakness actually work if it was within an integer say between 200%-300%? PM me here is best way to contact me.	Posted by ArchersBane#7013 on Apr 25, 2013, 8:51:21 PM Quote this Post
This curse is great for low base_crit_chance weapons with huge damage, like two-handed axes or swords. If you focus on critical multiplier and rely on the curse alone to boost your crit chance, it will nearly double your dps. (for example with 5% crit chance, 700% crit multiplier, a 10% quality lvl 15 Critical Weakness will increase total dps by 80%-90%, depending on your accuracy). With crits that do 10 times more damage than a regular hit, you just need to get a crit to kill the rare/boss outright :) Immortal King WW Marauder build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/348782/page/1 ign: Peresvet	Posted by Deen1983#6852 on May 1, 2013, 1:43:37 PM Quote this Post

I think critical weakness is the best DPS curse ingame, but it depends on the other skills and passives you use. Currently I am going for a pure physical high crit ranger who uses critical weakness to burst enemies down. The point is, that crit damage on its own scales increadible well the more you get. You have 2 factores which multiply with themselves and if you multipliy both factors(critical weakness) you will do truckloads of damage.	Posted by Deleted on Jun 15, 2013, 7:21:07 AM
Crit weakness is the best curse in the game if you invest in a crit build. It affect all damage types (no other curses does that) and if you have 95% crit chance (i do) this curse simply DOUBLES your dps. Non other curse can double a dps.

Spec out of some of that crit chance so you aren't wasting 5% crit. That's like 50-100% increased crit chance that could be put into multiplier. though admittedly how you're getting... What is it 850% crit chance while being playable is beyond me. IGN - PlutoChthon, Talvathir	Posted by Autocthon#5515 on Jun 20, 2013, 11:17:45 PM Quote this Post
