Quick Spell Speed Question

[Rongway]

Crit Hit Rate increases damage as it increases rate. You start at ~5% chance at ~45% increase in damage. Around 46 Crit gives you a 1% increase to both crit rate and crit damage.

Edit: No, sorry, you're right; I should have included the base damage.

normal chance + crit chance * (1 + crit damage multiplier) = expected value

0.95 + 0.05 * 1.45 = 1.0225
0.94 + 0.06 * 1.46 = 1.0276, an increase of 0.499%
0.93 + 0.07 * 1.47 = 1.0329, an increase of 0.516%
0.92 + 0.08 * 1.48 = 1.0384, an increase of 0.532%

0.75 + 0.25 * 1.65 = 1.1625
0.74 + 0.26 * 1.66 = 1.1716, an increase of 0.783%



And suddenly crit sounds even tastier.

Assuming the 5%/45%/+1/+1 numbers are correct, this is still decreasing when we consider the % change instead of the absolute increase.

0.05 * 0.45 = 0.0225
0.06 * 0.46 = 0.0276, a change of 0.0051, 22.67% of 0.0225
0.07 * 0.47 = 0.0329, a change of 0.0053, 19.20% of 0.0276
0.08 * 0.48 = 0.0384, a change of 0.0055, 16.72% of 0.0329

0.25 * 0.65 = 0.1625
0.26 * 0.66 = 0.1716, a change of 0.0091, 5.60% of 0.1625

1.1716 / 1.1625 is an increase of 0.78% damage.
