Critical strike is just a damage boost now

Maybe it is this way they want it, i have never read so much about it, i just enjoy playing it.
And i think crits should be something u look forward to getting when u fight and struggle, not something u know will appear every 2.-3. hits.
The same goes for the burn/freeze/shock u get on the enemy. It should be bonuses u hopefully get when u need it, not something that is on permanently like it is when u get high crit chance.
So i wanted to bring it up, but i guess it wont change

With the changes to status ailments, people might (except CoCers) invest in multi more than in chance. Before, have 1-4 cold damage, 1-4 lightning damage, land a crit and you'd have a shock-frozen enemy. Now, while still true, the shock and freeze duration will be so short that you probably won't notice it.
With a high multiplier, however, you might land crits less frequently, but when you do, you see some results (although 1-4 elemental damage won't do much even with 500% multi or more, at least not endgame).

Personally, I also like less chance and more multi.
