Similar to Skill/Spell Speed, you are always @ 2.5GCD and each point of that lowers your GCD more than it does at 50.

    So @ Lvl 60 cap - the 28 Crit may not be 1% anymore. It might be closer to 36 = 1%, but we will also get more Crit from gear and our base crit will be higher, but still probably only the 5% floor.
    iirc your base crit at level 1 is 1% while at level 50 is 5%. So it's not higher from the base viewpoint. I'm not sure if anyone particularly looked into how crit rate is adjusted based off your level when we talk about what additions of crit start changing the actual percent. It was just brought up that the base crit adjusts each level up but remains in that 1 - > 5% range. I would be curious to see if the value of a single point of crit outside of the base crit adjusts per level. EX: Crit coming from gear. If that was true, then it would explain the discrepancy I noticed.

    It certainly doesn't help gearing any.
    Seems to be a new thing popping up every few months that changes the foundations of what you've known up til then.
