base crit = ?

Eivar · April 2014

I've been told by a bunch of people that without skills or gear you should have a base crit chance of 10%......except if i take off all my gear and unslot all abilities, i have 0%......this would explain a lot when it comes to crit calculation as an increase of 2.5% off a base 0% would still be zero.....either way need some input from fellow players to see if it's just my character being bugged or what.

I think crit chance is additive. So if base was 0%, an increase of 2.5% would net you a total of 2.5% crit chance. If you then add an item with 3% you would be at a total of 5.5%. However, it seems like the character sheet is broken (not just with crit chance, but adding in bonuses from other effects and the like). So I have no idea exactly what the base number for crit chance is at.
