    Its 540 because of strike resist now :p. Thats the only reason. You would want around 550-600 crit. But despite that, rng is bugged as shit so who knows :eek:.

    Isn't that due to everyone mostly having +15 gear though? Something like 130 resist from that, if it even works here.

    my reaction is that chlora has never played retail and hasnt read the retail forums or aionsource forums.

    first when he went and changed a skill to a slow instead of a root when the skill itself said it imobilizes and now this?

    Conclusion (as assassin):

    1. Get crit up to 440 and next all attack
    or
    2. Get crit up to 550 and next all attack

    so what is the best to do as assassin?

    440 is softcap.
    However, people highly recommend to go softcap(440)+120 = 560 just beacuse of if all your gear is +15 enchanted, you'll have a 120 crit resistance.

    It all depends if crit resist works here or not. It was added in 1.9 so i'm assuming it does, but we don't know without some tests.

    Having 5 pieces +10 can give you +130 resistance, and +15 will give you +195.

    That means if you have 440 crit and go up against someone with all gear +15, then it's like you only have 245 crit.

    let me explain about soft and hard crit cap
    soft cap: 440 its 44% crit rate.1% crit rate for every 10 crit
    hard cap: after 440 is 0.5% crit rate for every 10 points in crit. so if you have 460 crit its 45%,480 46% and so on.that is until 600.cause after 600 is 0.2% for 10 crit.
