I can't give you enough awesomes for this! Thank you so much for testing this and staying with it for so long!
I'm still curious as to how this only affected Khajiit, since it's armor and class passives. I read that it was just magnified by carnage, so it should have affected every medium armor wearing NB with the Pressure Point passive. Hmmm, ok. Still strange no other race noticed it then, simply with NBs being as popular as they are.May all beings have happiness
May they be free from suffering
May they find the joy that has never known suffering
May they be free from attachment and hatred0 -

Most other builds were not Nightblades, and even less Khajiit. Sometimes they'd be ~1% over their crit, others they'd be ~4% under. Looking back it makes sense that it could have been Dexterity and we played it off as RNG since it wasn't a massive difference, but rather a small one, but that didn't make much sense since I texted Dexterity and it worked fine. I could have just missed something small, but it's good to see this finally resolved. A little too late however, as stamina builds have just been crushed via a lot of indirect nerfs with the upcomming patch, and stamina NB's in specific have been absolutely destroyed in PvE. Gilliam is going to be put aside, and I am considering leaving because of it.Old member of The Order of Mundus, Mostly Harmless, Hostile, and Genesis Elite. Avid theorycrafter. Herald to competitive stamina DPS pre 1.5. How far we've come!

This one is very happy indeed. Thank you for your hard work.0
