    Can a Crit "Crit" ?

    Hello,

    my MB crits for 8k-9k on most bosses (that dont have special power up buffs).
    tonight i had 2 crits that were off the charts:
    16k and a astonishing 24k few sec later.
    both hits were made against lord jaraxxus on 10 man non heroic setting on the boss it self and not his adds.

    i never noticed such high numbers any where but on hodir maybe...

    any thoughts? can a crit crit and u get double crit dmg or even triple?

    i dont have a screeny and dont have logs that i usualy put to support my claims, so for the sake of argument pls dont start "no pic, didnt happen" shiz.

    EDIT:
    here is a screeny from my friends recount (i reseted mine)

    That's not supposed to happen, unless you (by a bug) stole his damage buff when you dispelled it.

    Are you sure it wasnt just 16000 "(2 hits, 2 crits)"?

    sounds the most logical reason in my view, my MSCT shows when that stuff happens
    If you're reading this. Hello

    Did you read it in SCT or in Combatlog?
    What kind of SCT do you have?

    When you see it in a Combat log, i bet my gold on 2 numbers at the same time which look like one.

    1500
    5000
    Same time = 15000

    nope i dont have any scroling combat text addons, so it shows each hit seperatly...
    i also opened my recount during the fight and hovered over MB and max crit was 16k... few sec later i got the other 24k one... and recount updated acordingly :/

    i asked other priests in guild noone ever saw it happen... so i got puzzeled and decided to ask here.

    MSCT only combines damage into 1 output if its from the same spell and hits within lik 0.2 sec between each other. Mind blast has a cast time so it cannot hit twice in a row that fast ( unless you were lagging ). Try getting a log of the fight so you can see if you got some weird buff just before you hit.

    It's definitly a Combat Text bug. 8k first crit. then you crit again for 8k, your combat text adds them (why, dont ask me) and puts 16k. then you crit again. 16k +8 do the math

    ontopic: my crits had a 100% critchance so far

    That 25k is your crit. The line in red is your crit (it says on the left hand side)

    Your maximum HIT is roughly half of your maximum CRIT. Which seems to imply you had a buff somewhere along the line...

    so i could by some freak of wow nature steal lord jaraxxus's buff?

    Did you even dispell it or did it some shaman?

    I have no idea what could've happened there.

    we didnt have shammy... you can see our setup on the pic (page one) and last person was holy priest.
    yeah i did dispell it, spamed the button untill i got 2-4 lines of "nothing to dispell" ...

    Missed that, but still 3 priests (including you) who could dispell, a protwarr who could shieldslam and a mage who could spellsteal.

    If you normaly crit for 8k, you would need atleast a 200% dmg increase (and only in 25man is this buff 200%) so there needs to be another sauce of this.

    Re: Can a Crit "Crit" ?

    well, i guess we all spamed our dispells when boss buffed up... but this isnt the issue.

    and to get the 25k crit its 300% dmg increase heh

    ill open a ticket, dont wanna get baned for exploiting some game bug w/e, also curious what a gm will think of that.

    i get really really big hits / crits on jax but thats cause ima mage and i steal his buff for more dmg.

    /b/ecause none of us are as cruel as all of us.

    I think you did that when you activated trinkets and had a couple spellpower buffs and dmg boosters on boss
