Its getting so frustrated, ive respecced and respecced and still cant figure it out.
Is Biting Jabs in Aedric Spear critting based on Weapon or Spell Crit.
People are saying both. Is biting jabs damage based on Weapon or Spell Power.
Again people are saying both.

    All class skills are based off Magicka and thus, the magicka / spell crit rating.

    To show this, simply look at how much damage your Biting Jabs do with all your gear on. Then remove all your gear or just a few pieces with + magicka on it and notice your Biting Jabs are doing less damage.

    All weapon skills, such as 2H weapons, dual wielding, 1H + Shield, Bow, all those attacks are Stamina based, thus they are controlled by Stamina pool + weapon crit.

    Hope that helps =)

    This is not always the case as the NB skills are based of weapon crit not sure about other classes tho!

    To be more accurate : melee spells are based off weapon crit.
    This includes the Templar's Biting Jabs, the Nightblade's Veiled Strike, etc.

    Basically, any spell that "looks" like a melee attack and has a 5m range will be based off weapon crit. Others will use spell crit.

    Wow so basically no one has a clue. Because "all class skills" are not magika based aka biting jabs uses stamina. So what is the real answer?

    You have necro'ed a nearly 15 month old thread.

    Stamina skills use Weapon power and crit, magicka skills use spell power and spell crit.
