Does LGR benefit from increased crit damage % like the GR and HGR?
Smurfy does not indicate this, and I thought that smurfy uses the game files to extract the data.

hi, somehow always thought lightgauss has some additional damage like the rest off gauss weapons -checked smurfy mechlab and its no sign about that , would be interesting to know the truth .

thanks for starting investigation ShivermeRivets

gauss and heavy gauss get a crit nerf not a crit bonus. theyre incapable of getting x2/x3 crits (I think they do get a slight bonus to getting x1 crits though so the overall chance to get a crit remains the same, just not x2 or x3 crits).

light gauss doesnt get the same penalty and can get x2/x3 crits as normal.

No boost. We roll the percentile values that would normally be assigned to 2x and 3x crits into the 1x crit chances to ensure that the overall chance of a critical hit remains the same as other standard weapons. Its just that those Gauss weapons can only ever roll a single critical hit.

Considering how fragile clan mechs are, a crit bonus would be a bit much.

Great, thanks.

Bruh, if you think anything other than its craptacularness is a bit much for LGauss...

Smurfy is wrong on that, although you need to know it's not a straight increase as much as modified odds (and damage)

• All Gauss Rifles except Light Gauss deal 50% less bonus damage on crits
  
• All Gauss Rifles have 17% increased chance of causing one critical hit
  
• All Gauss Rifles have ZERO chance of causing multiple critical hits.
