What can and cannot crit?

[Rise.8259]

I'm working on a mine based build for my engineer. But I'm wondering, does it crit? Would I be safe in assuming that all damaging abilities in the game crit based off my attributes and buffs, unless they are a special case like engineer turrets?

That also brings up another question: Do necromancer or ranger pets benefit from your stats and buffs?

Abilities/triggered effects that can not crit will mention it on their tooltip except maybe a few of the on crit sigils' effects.

There are also structures that can't be crit regardless of what skill you use. Generally speaking if you can't apply a condition to it then it can't be crit either.

From the wiki:Boons and conditions applied by turrets use the character's attributes, and turrets cannot critically hit.That also brings up another question: Do necromancer or ranger pets benefit from your stats and buffs?no, minions and pets have their own stats

I'm talking about the mines you drop when you dodge, more specifically.But I am also curious about all the explosives available to engineer.

Turrets don't crit. From the wiki:

I already know that. I said so in what you quoted.

Theres no hard and fast rule with the Engineer, since many of its skill categories were designed around "standardized" gear, and ignore weapon power. Most skills that do power damage, unless otherwise noted in either tool tips or wiki, do have a chance to crit- but the amount of damage it does is influenced by a large amount of non-obvious factors. Utility skills and sigils/runes usually have their own "weapon power" value, may or may not scale with bonuses, and some even ignore the player's stats (like life steal).

the only real way to find out is to check the wiki and test it against dry runs against golems.

A sigil of intelligence should make it fairly each to check in most cases.
