Does beeing a pure strenght give you more critical than beeing pure int?

Pure STR doesnt give you more crits, but makes your crits more powerful. A Pure Int would have very weak crits

okay thx alot.... that must explain the 7.9crit on chakjis with daggers Critical 6 in llv 32=)

it raises crit damage because criticals raise your physical dmg only not magical...thats why pure str crits are so much higher than normal hits

Pure STR weapon based > more CRITS.
Pure INT nuke based > less CRITS.

I think you are miss understanding.

A nuke will never crit, its purely magical damage.

The weapon (and some skills, ie anti-devil) determines how often you crit, not how hard you crit.

As an hybrid int, my crits are very hard on KD, and stab. even ints crit with sword skills, it just lets strs do more damage once while ints do more damage constantly.

Think of it like this:

IMBUE = MAG damage

Wep skill = PHYS damage

Crit only doubles your phys.

Someone who is pure INT, has most of their damage coming from an imbue.

Eg: pure int using basic attack = 200 damage
pure int using basic attack + fire imbue = 1200 damage

Crit = double the basic attack = 400 damage
so a crit with fire imbue on = 400 damage + 1000 damage from imbue

= 1400 damage total.

In other words, the difference between the crit and normal attack will be really low on an int char.

IMO, neither a pure str nor pure int could give you more crits. It's all depends on the crits on your weapon. But, some skills do raise your crits rate like anti devil or strong bow skill.

I am a pure int nuker, and i am using a 13 crits weapon, I did a lot of crits while doing ghost spear. So, I don't think being a pure int or pure str will affect your critical rate.

If you want more crits, just try to purchase higher crits weapon.

IMHO, If you want more crits, be a bower and get the Passive skill.
it raises your Crit %s.
hehehehehehehe

Then buy HIGH crit BOWs...
and whack them all Mobs!
ciao! :p
