Static Blows / Chance to Shock Question

Hi

what interests me is how does "chance to shock" actually work. The wiki gives no clear answer. normally shock is applied for as set minimum duration of 300ms if: (Lightning Damage) > (Monster Life)/3

static blows does increase your chance to shock. But does it bypass the mechanic to have a minimum amount of damage to actually shock a target?

I assume it will not. But can someone confirm this?

If thats the case, how much lightning damage would be enough to shock your average MAP monsters/rares/bosses for said duration of 300ms?
Shock is normally applied only when you make a critical hit. You can deal 9001 lightning damage, but if it isn't a critical it won't shock.

Static Blows bypasses the requirement for you to make a critical hit to cause shock.
