Right then guys and gals, been having a running disagreement for a few days in the guild im in and hoping you knowledgable folk can help. The ones arguing have been pretty much playing on console from day 1 so we should really know but.......

Is critical strike chance capped at 50% in cyrodiil?

Im firmly in the "what the bloody hell are you talking about" camp but a lot of experienced people claim it is.

If it is ive got humble pie waiting :(

    It is not capped in cyrodiil, however, battle leveled players do have their stats capped in cyro.

    Many stam NB builds are all about hight crit chance, high crit damage.

    I guess i can't say without a doubt, but my understanding is that it is not capped.

    Easy solution would be to take a build with high crit and go light attack an npc repeatedly with combat text on keep track of how many you get.

    If you have 80%+ crit but repeatedly only score 5/10 crits something is up. Not a perfect test but should work.

    Crit damage is mitigated in PVP though by Impen gear traits, Resistant CP, and player Shields. So the idea of having a build with extreme high crit chance may not be advised in PVP, as you most likely sacrifice some damage to achieve it.
