Theoretical Max Crit %

With the new sets coming in One Tamriel, there are a few sets that drastically increase crit.

Mother's sorrow and leviathan both have a 5 pc bonus of 1643 crit for spell dmg and weapon dmg, respectively.

With julianos/hundings, thief mundus stone, mothers sorrow/leviathan and magelight/expert hunter, what is the max crit % you can get?

Also for stam builds you can use dual daggers to increase the crit even more.

I know everybody uses twice born star, but I'm asking for the highest theoretical crit chance, which would be higher with hundings/julianos.

    As a Khajiit with the new sets it's probably possible to gain 100% Crit chance, you would lose out on a decent amount of Max Stam and Weapon Damage though.

    You were already able to get over 100% crit chance with sets in previous patches. About a year ago I had 104.7% critical chance in cyrodiil with my khajiit stam nb.

    A Critical Hit for a 1000 Damage ability still does less than a 2000 Damage ability non crit. So you would still need to spec into damage or your crits won't do that much. As well as needing resource sustainability.

    Yeah, I used to be (as in: several months ago on live) at over 100% weapon crit on my stam khajiit nightblade, until I changed my gear up a bit to buff my weapon damage. I think I'm still at about 92% though.

    It always seemed easier to stack weapon crit than spell crit though, and I think some of the new sets in One Tamriel will make spell crit stacking much easier.

    But with 100% crit, you'd be doing serious consistent damage. You can also load up the cp crit modifier.

    True. Which is why I would leave the 5pc hundings/julianos if i were to try this.

    And your Critting about as often at 80% or even 70%. Sure, it's not 100%, but it's almost a 100% proc rate. Since that is the case, then giving up 100% Crits to say 70% Crits to allow you to gain either base damage (which buffs Crits) or Crit Damage Buffs will be better for you overall.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Well that would depend on your crit damage multiplier. With aggressive warhorn and rearming trap my crit damage is at nearly 230% with a stam sorc and would be higher on a stamblade.
