Is there a cap on weapon crit?

Ok I have been mixing and matching gear for my NB, now having learned all traits for medium armour, I decided to change my trait from well fitted (Reduces the cost of Sprinting by) to Divines (Increases Mundus Stone effects by) My mundus stone is The Shadow. (Increases Critical Strike damage by 12%
18.3% with 7 Legendary Divine Traits) my crit was 64.2 before changing 4 pieces of gear to Divines, now having all 5 pieces of Hunding's rage I now have the added benefit of the 4 items = Adds 600 weapon crit yet my crit went from 64.2 to 64.4???

is this right or is there something wrong with the math?

    Change your mundus stone to The Thief if you want crit chance.

    What did you trade out in place for Hundings? Were you in medium armor before, and now aren't in full medium? Did you have the same mundus stone? Did you upgrade the quality, or swap to a lower grade of quality gear? To answer your question, there is no cap to crit chance. A "soft" cap of 100% exists, as you can never crit more than 100% of the time, but you can indeed go over 100% crit chance, just with no benefit. To solve your dilemma you'd have to give more specifics of what you swapped out, quality of gear, etc.

    A side note is 219 crit rating is equivalent to 1% crit chance, so 600 crit rating would be 2.739%, but would display as 2.7%, as tooltip ignores past the tenth place for UI display.

    You may get diminishing returns. I thought something like 2000 weapon crit adds something like 10%, does for my camo hunter anyway.

    Use the crit chance Mundus Stone "The Thief", once you have 90 champion points you can put 30 into the Ritual and get 12% crit chance from that, also Khajiits get 8% crit chance from their passives.

    80% crit chance is around what you can achieve as a Khajiit, can probably be pushed higher. 70% is fine though.
