Critical strike on skill (Rain of arrows)

So, I have a question: Can skills like rain of arrows crit ?
I searched this forum and the wiki for a long time now, and I came to the conclusion that its not possible at all. Is this correct ?

Source: http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Critical_Strike

I fuígured, since its not mentioned there, the spell can not crit at all.

Thanks in advance for the answers

PS: Anyone else thinking the search function isnt this great ? ^^
Skills like rain of arrows are called 'attacks'. Unlike spells, they don't have their own base crit chance, instead, they use the base crit chance of the weapon.

Most bows have 5% crit chance, eg:


So the base crit chance for rain of arrows is usually 5%.

PS:, on the page you linked to it says:
"
The chance to deal a critical strike is taken from the weapon used to perform an attack or attack skill, and in the case of spells, each spell has its own critical strike chance, which is listed in the skill gem's description.


You can tell if a skill is an attack or a spell because it says 'attack' or 'spell' in its description. egs:
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:
