Crit is more important for SMN, even if it's just our class in particular. At almost any given moment we could simultaneously have 7+ chances of a crit proc; from DoT tics, pet attack, ruin, fester, our auto-attacks... it's a lot more important for us than what it would be on BLM.

Oh yeah, didn't even factor in the spell-speed proc off the pet crits....
Not again. Crit has a diminishing return on gear and sure while its nice to have its still just a chance where as Det never loses its value and scales better. Now with all that being said the difference in dps is ~1 so if you prefer crit all the power to you but he has posted links to his discovery.
