Ghostly Embrace doesn't do bonus critical damage

The critical hit does still occur, evident by the fact that the damage numbers become yellow, but you don't do any bonus damage. Here is a screenshot from Combat Metrics. You can clearly see that 2 hits occurred on the dummy. 1 was a crit, the other was not. Despite this both did the exact same damage:

    @ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_GinaBruno This is really troubling as this is something I found out literally the first time I tried this new iteration of the skill out on the dummy. How exactly did your testers not find this? It's super easy to replicate. You just cast the skill. This also isn't the first time super obvious oversights make it to live, specifically in regards to necro. Literally the last necro skill you overhauled, Gravelord's Suckrifice, didn't boost the damage of Animate Blastbones. Why is Necro the only class that gets half-assed skill overhauls like this?

    Another day, another Necro ability that doesn't function correctly.

    This likely won't be acknowledged just like how they still haven't acknowledged GLS not buffing the third Skull cast on killing blows.

    Idek why they thought adding damage to this skill was a good idea in the first place. Has anyone at ZOS ever tried to land this thing outside a dummy parse? It's nearly impossible.

    I'm so tired of all these necromancer bugs. They get the worst treatment out of any other class, and you have to pay for it too, which is insulting.
