30% is the cap on the bonus from Surge Rating. Your 76% must include the base 50% critical multiplier, and it must be pre-nerf, because reaching 76% after the nerf would require unattainable (I think) amounts of Surge Rating.

In any case, it is impossible to exceed the cap, but as you get close to it you are paying too much to make it worthwhile. If you somehow have 76% after the nerf, it is a waste in the sense that there are almost certainly more cost-effective ways to use some of those points in Surge Rating.
