Maybe Stupid Idea / Critical Damage Decrease.

[DanAlcedo.3281]

Hi!

We currently have an effect called Critical Damage Increase.

An example would be Spellbreaker Dagger.

This means there should also be the opposide in the code.

Critical Damage Decrease

Could we not put this effect on skills that are supposed to scale very good with power, but would then also get crazy strong with crit(dmg)?

Lets say....

Mighty Blow

• Make it scale very good with power.
• Give it a Critical Damage Decrease effect.

Wouldn´t this result in higher base dmg without its dmg getting overblown with crit/ferocity?

I know this might be a stupid idea but i thought this effect is something we could use in balancing.

Reducing the high end dmg of skills.

Maybe you have better ideas.

That's actually a great idea, and it should have been in the original game engine to begin with.

Something like this would have been great to make more distinct differences between weapons meant for high bursting with criticals, and weapons meant for general power damage while being more sustainy.

Though there kinda has to be a minimum Critical Damage %. Let's say it can't decrease critical damage beyond the 150% that it is baseline.

If you increase the base damage and decrease the crit damage the damage a critical strike would deal is probably not far off from what they already do, it's just a damage buff for the times you don't get a crit.

Great idea imo...make it a debuff.
