Due to U13 changes damage released of of Backlash can't crit, but as side change - heals of Purifying Light became bugged and can't crit anymore too, making Crit Rating irreleveant for skill.

    Thanks @Cinbri! We're working on fixing this one.

    Sorry for the Gravedig, but I just tested this on the PTS and this is still an issue.

    Purifying light copied damage never crits.

    Just tested on pts and it seemed fine for me.

    Never mind. I was initially talking about how the copied damage not critting, but after re-reading the upper post I saw that the U13 changed that so I looked through some of the 2.7 patch notes and found the change in patch notes 2.7.4. It should really be specified in the tooltip that the copied damage does not crit, because I can't think of any other skill that does not crit.

    Technically, it's a proc, and procs don't crit.
    The initial damage can crit, but the proc percentage of all other damage done can't. That means it does follow how other things work.

    It's not a proc otherwise all the other skills like haunting curse (which explodes after 6 seconds like purifying light) would not crit either if they were all in this "proc" category.

    Haunting Curse does its own damage. Purifying Light does damage based on 20% of all other damage done to the target, which the other damage can crit. They don't want crits of crits.
    It's a proc based on already possible to crit damage.

    You just don't understand it.

    You don't understand what "proc" means, "proc" is short for "Programmed Random OCcurance", there is nothing random about the damage from PL, your PL will always do damage after 6 seconds, if only from the initial cast of the skill itself.

    They have stated in previous patch notes about this skill and you said in this very thread, they don't want it to crit because crits count toward the saved damage.

    This skill still works with crit heals.
