Is there a cap? Is it worth having crit chance over 75%?

    Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe there is a cap. However, there are diminishing returns and you begin to sacrifice another stat the more you put into crit chance (namely spell or weapon damage).

    The cap for crit would obviously be 100%. As the previous reply stated though, stacking stats into all crit will likely hinder better damage as you will be sacrificing other important stats like Max Mag/Stam or Spell/Weap Dmg.

    Any thoughts on where the 'sweet spot' is? I find 50% seems to power crit surge just fine but generally try to get about 65% crit.

    50-60% is a good range to shoot for.

    I'm at 75% right now unbuffed. I'm thinking maybe I should drop the thief stone and go with either warrior or shadow. My wep dam currently is 3200 unbuffed, and I'm a stam Dk redguard using Ay daggers/jewelry, 5 pieces of Vo and velidreth monster set. To me it seems like i have overkill on my crit chance.

    Go with the lover mundus stone instead. With those sets you won't be near the penetration cap in any content you play in, and penetration will give you the highest DPS increase until you get to the cap.

    There's not a specific Sweetspot, which applies to each scenario on every class.

    That Topic is very specific to the situation, Race and gear you use.

    can only say what my stamNB freinds aim for in a PVE Progression Trialrun -> 85% Critratio.
