    i was able to do a respec, and everything is correct. the feat does work, ect. but it baffles me that my stat did this. then again, this is not the weirdest thing to happen with my warlock. thank you guys for the input!

    It works for me. What race do you play, you have crit boons and do you have companions witch crit severity?
  • bluey22#7852 bluey22 Member Posts: 30 Arc User
    i have all boons but last 2 for ToD (already know that will help), and last 3 for SKT. i use seige master, air/fire archon, con artist (aware of the rings update) and the repentant dragon cultist. i know the companion from the sw pack. but let me just say it seriously isnt my companions. my main issue is all i did was change one feat for more crit severity. and it didnt budge.

    If you do a respecc also your boons have to be set new. Check your Guild boons. There is a guild boon that can give you crit severity. Maybe that boon is not set anymore?

    all boons are set and active. at this point I'm going to have to get two respecs and make sure.

    FYI, on PC platform Devastating Critical works as intended both visually on character sheet and for increasing the damage correctly upon critical.

    You said you miss Tyranny of Dragons boon, so your case seems okay:
    104% Critical Severity =
    -> 75% by default
    -> 15% Devastating Critical
    -> 10% Erinyes of Belial or Wild Storm Elixir (I'm assuming)
    -> 2% Boon of Icewind Dale
    -> 2% Boon of Cloaked Ascendancy

    You may win a thousand fights, but you can only lose one.

    Do you know if the last crit sev boons from tyranny of dragons work? It was stated a long time ago that they don't work so I refrained from picking them up, I wonder if they work o.O Maybe you could use ACT to check that out? I'm on console so no preview nor ACT ;_;

    I checked it on Preview and Dragon's Fury boon works smoothly on all 3 ranks; it applies correctly the stated 5/6.5/8% Critical Severity, both on the character sheet and on the actual damage. :)

    @stathisjoestar thank you very much! :) now I have a reason to grind those boons or buying the campaign shorcut once we get loadouts on console xD I know the damage increase will be awfully low but hey every bit of damage counts :)
