Crit Resistance And Penetration Mechanic
|
I think PoE could really profit from adding a Crit resistance and Crit Penetration mechanic.
I think the names are pretty self explanatory. The resist would work a little like the elemental resist except instead of removing part of the damage it would simply have a % chance to convert the hit into a normal hit. Monsters, abilities and gear could get Crit Resistance and Crit Penetration mods.
2 EXAMPLES:
Player vs Normal Mob
If a player has 70% chance to crit and 50% crit penetration and the normal mob would have say 65% crit resistance then the server would first roll if the player performed a crit (70% chance) and would then roll if the crit was converted into a normal hit ( 65 - 50 = 15% chance). Player would score criticals 59.5% of the time. Player vs "Resists Criticals" Boss If a player has 70% chance to crit and 50% crit penetration and the boss would have say 125% crit resistance then the server would first roll if the player performed a crit (70% chance) and would then roll if the crit was converted into a normal hit ( 125 - 50 = 75% chance). Player would score criticals 17.5% of the time. The player could counter it to a degree, for example curse the target to lower it's crit resistance, just like we can lower ele resists now. While we are reworking crit, it would be a good idea to also add "Take reduced damage from critical hits" to a few more nodes, especially melee ones. This I think would be some decent help to melee (especially 2 handers) who currently have to facetank a lot of things in PoE while not having the advantage of range *looks at certain map bosses*.

It might be but I was mainly trying to come up with a less idiotic equivalent to the Crit nerf that some of the whiners here on the forum talk about.
It would address both 2 hander survivability issues and the power of CoC, without actually nerfing CoC to the ground or making it totally not viable against some groups. Last edited by Draqone#6618 on Nov 17, 2014, 2:48:57 AM

I like the ideas of having lost efficiency over some threshold, such that some of the crazy scaling scenarios get nerfed but most things stay much the same.

" This crit resistance would be good because it could scale with level. For example monsters in low lvls could have 0 ccrit resistance whereas map monsters could have 100+ % crit resistance. |

I thought my suggestions on this were pretty good --->
