Theory crafting: mapping crit rating to crit %. My results.

- made a mistake, it thought 300 was the min crit rating at 50, it is actually 341, updating calculations.

Alright, i was curios how crit rating maps to %, so i decided to test it out by getting 4 data points, each at a different crit rating and parsing 1000 physick casts each.

It has also been shown that the default crit rating of 341 at lvl 50 equates to 5%

Here is what i got:



Old Graph with data

tl;dr:

- inconclusive over 500
- the linear interpolation should give you a decent idea of where you stand.

Analysis:

With 1000 casts, i will get about 2 sig figs of accuracy which is not great, I used least squares interpolation using a cubic base function, quadratic and linear.

This data was gathered on a 50 scholar and the max crit rating i could get with food was 496. I also used test data gathered by DoctorMog.

To be determined:

- whether all attacks have the same crit rating (ie: heals, vs melee, vs dots)
- whether level difference between character and target affect this
- whether all classes have the same conversion rating
- how well this estimates values above 500
+ assuming this will only be accurate for a lvl 50.

What you can do:

Download a praser, parse 1000 hits and see if it matches, make sure you are not using any skills or traits which impact your crit %. With 1000 casts, given enough data, it will average out.
