    It has a 5% chance to proc after you attack basically (encounters and at-wills). Once it procs it lasts 8 seconds. I haven't been able to confirm if it works on DoTs, but it feels like it procs a lot more than 5% of the time.

    Definitely a must have in every DPS oriented CW build.

    It works for the most part. But you have to understand that crits are only rolled once per spell. If you crit when you cast Ray of Enfeeblement, the entire thing crits. So if I cast Ray, then a magic missile that triggers Eye of the Storm, none of the dot ticks from the Ray are going to crit because the game already determined that Ray didn't crit.

    I feel as though Magic Missile's "cast" is the whole 5-hit combo, and Ray of Frost "cast" is the entire channel duration. So if your first magic missile crits, they all crit. I'm actually less sure of this than I should be.

    If Icy Terrain procs Eye of the Storm, I don't seem to get the EotS buff.
    I've heard that Sudden Storm has a glitched crit currently. Glitched in a bad way.
    And I feel like Shard of Endless Avalanche can't crit either, but I'm really not sure.

    Shard of the Endless can crit, but there are certain conditions you have to fulfill first which makes it pretty HAMSTER in general. It's still a funny/fun spell so I use it anyways (though it's mostly bad at this point).

    Clarification on certain spells; Shield , and I think Repel, but roll individually that is to say each target gets a hit/crit roll. Sudden Storm cannot crit with its primary hits, but the secondary physical ones can crit and contribute to AP when they do.
