    Can you test over 100 hits or something whether or not the buff is actually being removed or if it's a UI error, this would probably help them massively.

    I believe the UI but still would really help if you had more concrete figures as we do with theorycrafting, most bug and fix posts have helped dev's more when we've pinpointed there's a problem with solid maths :smile:

    EDIT: Also, speaking is scary, I can completely sympathize :smiley:

    I just tested it and can confirm that there's a bug with weapon crit. But I don't think it is potions.

    Testing method:
    I used gear to get 90% weapon crit without major savagery buff. So with the potion all my weapon attacks should do critical damage. I killed my favourite mammoth after I used a potion (v5, stamina + meapon damage + weapon crit) and out of my 37 light attacks 3 didn't crit.
    For confirmation I slotted evil hunter (for 100% crit chance) on my main bar and killed an other mammoth but this time 4 out of my 40 hits didn't do critical damage.
    Then I pushed my crit chance even higher to get 100% without major savagery, but still some of my attacks (5 out of 48) didn't crit.
    Then I pushed it to the maximum I can get without crafting new gear (in theory 113.5% with major savagery), but still 4 out of 42 hits didn't crit.

    @RatedChaotic

    When you use a potion with crit n dmg and swap bars (IF any skill on that bar gives major crit buff) and swap back it will remove the buff completly even thou timer is still going.

    Slaughtered some more mammoths:
    Average set up with 61.5% weapon crit: 604 out of 1000 attacks did critical damage
    Same setup but with major savagery buff (evil hunter on my bar), so 71.5%: 663 out of 1000 attacks did critical damage.
    So it seems as if major savagery is somehow broken or there are diminishing returns on weapon crit that are not displayed in the character sheet.

    Also the major savagery buff from potions never shows in my character sheet no matter what I do.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Can you pls get someone to look into how weapon crit works?
