I wonder how this even works, because tbh I think that the way PGI likely programmed it would make -crit chance utterly useless.

My assumption is that weapons have their crit chance per tick/strick, lets say its 10% (I know that's not the real value).

Now you pump 5 points into -crit chance to get -5% chance to get critted.

I'm willing to bet the way they implemented is is that your chance isn't straight subtracted but that it's the 10% gets 5% of that chance knocked off so its more like a .5 reduction instead of halved like you'd assume it was. Much less if the incoming chance is less, so it almost becomes a meaningless stat.

Can't see them doing it any other way otherwise I think you'd be able to completely nullify or very nearly nullify crit chances.

-- sorry about the title misspelling, its been a long cloudy day without nearly enough coffee to boost my morale.
