Combat Physician and Funnel Health

Abilities that heal based on their damage done (Strife, Puncturing Sweeps, etc.) will no longer “double dip” in the Critical Strike modifier.

I have not considered Combat Physician a great set but some players use it. However, if the heal from mophs of strife (funnel health) will no longer critically heal or even critically heal less often I'd say the benefit of this year for magblades is reduced and maybe become insignificant.

Maybe I am missing something but really just posting this since I understand some NBs like this set.

    It's still a good set. It just means your crit rate is based off the percentage of your actual crit rate, and if you don't crit first off, there's not a chance for the system to re-roll the crit for the gear. Sets like this were probably found during their audits of all the skills/sets for Cyrodiil PVP to reduce the number of checks the items are doing on the server to improve performance.

    I believe what the "double dip" was the damage done could be a crit, then the heal could crit independently of the damage done.

    So this means that if you had funnel health crit for (using made up values here) 12k, then it heal for 4k, but also have the potential of critting on its own for 6k.. Kinda strong.

    So what i believe it was changed to was that if the damage was a crit, then the heal would be treated as a crit. I may be mistaken in this, but maybe some clarity would help.

    I can see the idea of reducing lag in Cyrodiil and the double dip issue. Mostly started this thread since someone needs to check to see how this actually works since the patch notes are not perfectly clear (and there are sometimes unintended consequences.
