    Just got Allagan Striking head should I use it over Melee? My Acc is fine with the 15 loss.

    If your accuracy is fine, then I don't see how there is even a question.

    Well I'm losing 6 Crit. I haven't been playing much lately since 2.1, I switched to Allagan Feet over Melee (for the stat change) and it just seems like I haven't done a high Crit hit like I'm use to seeing pre 2.1. Pre 2.1 the highest Crit I ever had was 787 and I seen it quite a bit, But since switching and losing Crit the highest I've seen is like 746.

    So I guess I should be asking if DET is increasing my overall DMG and maybe I shouldn't just worry about the high spike DMG?

    Crit does not increase the damage of your crits. it increases the likelihood of landing a crit.

    One point of determination weighs higher than one point of crit.

    Any point of accuracy above cap is a completely useless.

    Ok thanks for the info. Just not sure why my highest crits have went down by almost 40 DMG points.

    Change your food? A loss in determination would explain the damage loss. My highest crit post patch is 788.

    Maybe when you got the crit you were using a STR potion, or maybe you had the party buff to str and you did the damage without the party buff on. Maybe Dragon Kick ran out or twin snakes? If pre patch your damage was buffed by Blood for Blood and post patch the nerf to blood for blood could cause the damage loss. It could be any number of things except the loss to critical chance.

    If everything was in the same condition, all the same buffs, same stats etc. Its most likely caused by the blood for blood nerf.
