Is Tenacity working as intended?

[Falar]

That would make it quite the exception to how stats are handled. Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Mind, Tenacity, and Piety all state who they do and do not work for. Why would Direct Hit be the only one not to?

Guys, it works.

Put on old gear that had accuracy (it got converted to Direct Hit) and fight stuff. Large font, no ! damage numbers means direct hit. Larger yet font and double !! means direct critical hit. Like always, ! for critical.

Scored plenty of both level 60-66 while I was still wearing my i270 stuff.
