Can the Overpower hit crit now after the changes?
yes as it always has been able to
no, how it always was is that the attack itself can crit but not the overpower hit.
When Overpowered attack also Critically Strikes, only the normal skill’s damage is multiplied by your CSD, the Overpower bonus stays the same and is simply added on top.
Tho, considering the many changes, i cant tell if itll be the same in s2 right now.
We simply do not know.
There are things that point to yes, and things that point to no.
I’m guessing yes personally, even though I would prefer no.
over power hits have always been able to crit. what are you talking about?
- White: Base damage.
- Yellow: Critical damage. Yellow numbers pop up whenever you deal a critical hit, and this is dependent on your Critical Strike Chance stat.
- Blue: Overpower damage. This has a 3% chance of occurring, and is basically extra damage you can deal on top of your base damage. Overpower damage can be guaranteed through specific weapon effects and other conditions.
- Orange: Critical Overpower damage. This occurs whenever you get a critical hit while dealing Overpower damage.
Overpower hits could crit, but critical damage did not apply to your overpower.
The way overpower works right now is it takes your life + fortify, and multiplies it by a small pool of mods that is mostly overpower-specific, and the just adds that final damage onto the non-overpower part of the hit. The mods that act on the overpower part of the hit do no include crit, vuln, mainstat, and most +% or x% mods. There’s a video about this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08Zfgpsljjc
