Critical surge + flurry/rapid strikes question

Lynx7386 · December 2014

Will critical surge have a chance to activate for each of the 6 attacks over the course of a flurry, or just once?

I'm trying to come up with a good dual wield sorceror build focused on crit surge / lightning form and the rest stamina attacks.

Yes it has a chance to crit on all of them. If I'm not mistaken, every rapid strike has a chance to crit, which activates the surge heal. Your likelihood to crit is based on your weapon crit %

As a general rule, any skill that hits multiply times, only the first HIT has a chance to crit. Any other hit will never crit and therefore never trigger critical surge.

But flurry/rapid strikes has an extra bonus where the final hit can crit as well.
So Hit 1 can crit and Hit 6 can crit, but hit 2-5 can not

Just tested. All hits in Flurry can crit, and they can all activate Surge. I had 4 of them in a row crit and activate surge 4 times in a row.
