Engi strikes, crit from 1 weapon only?
« on: October 23, 2011, 12:53:16 PM »
And the rumormachine goes on. Newest rumot is that the engy only receives crit bonuses from one strike weapons (left or right-dont know exactly). I would test it but i got the crit perk which makes it kinda hard.

So if anyone could test it. Probably fragger with a crit mod is a good weapon for this or one of those unique predators with crit on it.

Pretty sure your crits come from the combination of both same with +% increased splash radius etc.

thats what i heard. It sounds pretty weird and i doubt it. But i cannot test it due to the crit perk.

The game is controlled by the augments and Mods on or in your gun in BOTH hands as proven by this simple easy test.  Illaster's Magic sun + 1 Fire% damage Fuel, + 1 3% critcal augment, Congrats your Smackdown and Shock and Awe will now both crit, and ignite.  It doesn't matter which hand the gun is in or what else augment//mod wise is equipped. 

Some augments will not work however with strikes some on hits, I haven't tested them all, but I know the nova's on-hit and death don't proc with strikes, also Shrapnel doesn't either.

thats all well and good .... so if that is the case how is crit calcd... say if u have 16 in one hand and 19 in the other thats the heart of the  question being asked ..... we know it take properties from both minus on hits.... Is it the average crit 17.5*ccms is it the 16*ccms or is it the 19*ccms .... thats the the realy question on the thread not omg ... smackdown now does fire dmg.... any engi coming to the thread for answers should know that
