Do you think the new Slayer node Overwhelm "Base Critical strike chance for attacks with weapon is 8%" will set it the way it is not alterable by other similar the sources which gives +% base crit chance like Inc Crit Support, gloves corruption or assassin's mark; just like the way Loreweave sets maximum resistances?
External link →It sets the base crit chance. Additional crit chance is not base crit chance, it's an addition to it. Setting the base doesn't do anything to additional crit chance, only to the base value, which for attacks is usually the crit chance of your weapon.
Hi sorry just to confirm - for something like a Fleshripper, which has 50% inc crit as an implicit, Overwhelm will set the crit before the implicit, right?
No. The critical strike chance of a white Fleshripper weapon is 7.5%, because it has an implicit that modifies it to be that high. This is the value displayed as "Critical Strike Chance" on the item's details.
That number ususally becomes the base critical strike chance of your attacks when you equip the weapon. Overwhelm replaces that number with 8%
