Subspace Vortex and Particle Manipulator

So I was testing out the newly fixed Unstable Anomalies trait - which I found to be the most expensive and useless trait I have - however I noticed something odd, that my partgen powers all have about the same crit rate, but Subspace Vortex is much lower.

Vortex is sitting around 20% while Grav Well, TBR, and DSRB are around 70%. The difference, would seem to come from Particle Manipulator.

WAI, bugged (either SCM or STO), or am I missing something?

    Unstable Anomalies trait doesn't have anything to do with Subspace Vortex

    He was just giving some back story which is fine. Stop being a TRIBBLE.

    On topic, I have never been able to get parsers to function correctly for me but I would say this warrants further testing as Subspace Vortex is the bread and butter of most high end EPG builds.

    I think it suffers from the age old crit bug that affects all powers that spawn separate from your ship (like Tyken's and GW and even your PEP torp clouds).

    I also started an inquiry regarding something similar (secondary deflector cruts). It seems that the Deteriorating Secondary Deflector either all crits or doesn't crit at all based on the first tick.

    I wasn't sure if it was just a fluke, but looking at previous parses (ISA, CCA, Japori Elite, even a PvP match) all show a similarly low crit rate.

    I had noticed the PEPT cloud was also critting less. And of course the numbers from my Deteriorating Deflector aren't even worth talking about - pretty dismal. Would like to see exotic particle stuff looked at overall.

    Not that I need or want more damage, but I would like things (especially expensive stuff), to work properly.
