Last time i paid attention, Toxic Scan healed twice, once for each debuff removal attempt.
will check when i get back home.

Yeah I think that's true, at least I recall the tooltip saying so. Whether the tooltip is then right I don't know.

First time post be gentle,

Ive been using a few spreadsheets in other mmo games and decided to try this healing one, im a bit of a number cruncher on paper, ive searched but cant find the answer, forgive me if ots there and ive missed it

im wanting to work out on paper crit rating etc but know that cunning also helps with it , how much crit does cunning give you i.e 1 cunning = ? crit rating

thanks in advance

Hello. Your question is somewhat confusing. Their are 3 terms: cunning, crit rating, and crit chance. Cunning and Crit Rating are on your gear and combine to give you crit chance.

If your asking how much cunning contributes to crit chance you can look at the formula below (note primary stat is cunning). in short it will vary depending on how much Cunning you already have.

From the Formula List.

Code:

Crit Chance % = 5 + 30 * ( 1 - ( 1 - ( 0.01 / 0.3 ) )^( ( PrimaryStat / max(Level,20) ) / 2.5 ) ) + 30 * ( 1 - ( 1 - ( 0.01 / 0.3 ) )^( ( CritRating / max(Level,20) ) / 0.45 ) )

If you meant how much a given amount of Cunning is the equivalent of Crit Rating then again I direct you to the formula above. And again it depends on the amount of gear you have.

If your trying to decide the optimal number of stats to have i'd advise you to use the Operative Healing Analysis Spreadsheet (I assume theres an equivalent one somewhere on here for DPS). Just input your currnt gear and then change, for example, cunning by +10 and crit by -10 and judge the output.

Off the top of my head, I have around 1800 or so cunninng and it contributes maybe 10% or so to my crit chance (out of 35% or so unbuffed). I have 300 crit rating. Crit rating is your dominate concern.

Thanks for the quick reply,

Ive been stacking crit to get my crit rating to the 350 mark, but now thinking after reading a few more things should be stacking power before crit (if im right),

im trying to work out my mod/enhance switching on paper before doing it in game , i recently went though 300k in a matter of minutes switching stuff before i realised how much it was actually costing me, lol

running with cunning = 1734
crit rating = 352
power = 242

surge = 192
tech power = 1210
alacrity = 286

was just messing around to see if getting more power will help in a big way, if someone could look at my numbers and give me an idea if it would be worth dropping alot of crit to get more power.

Power is better than crit almost always, if not always - I haven't tested it for all values.

Surge numbers look good imo.

You should check my spreadsheet in the OP, enter your numbers and use the change column to compare different combinations.

yeah been busy greeding on the gear for SW/SI stuff with battle enhancements on

trying to get more power but keeping crit at 350 is a bit problem , but ill post up closest i can get

As far as whats best when leveling it's difficult as everytime you upgrade a little bit something else becomes more important.

I did the same as you and first stack crit/surge to softcaps as they are the easiest to cap. Power is definetly not always better. Myself I only run 300 crit rating / surge, then the rest power/alac.

It's been awhile since I've run the numbers but (keeping in mind i'm healer) that 300 crit rating was where additional crit ~= power up to 350 and after that power is better.

Currently I'm running 300 crit / 300 surge / ~200 or so alacrity. I was recently reading that between 300-350 surge is marginally better alacrity for sustained but alacrity was 200-300% better for burst. I'm not sure if the jury is still out on that.

As far as cunning vs power goes there are approximately equal (1 cunn = 0.97 power)

It is now already at ~250 crit that power becomes better. Probably because of the surge nerf.

At 300-350 surge, alacrit is more like 5 or 6 times better for burst healing. The surge nerf gave such strong DR that you're really seeing very little return per point.

I just realized that that you never mention when you should stop stacking crit is there a reason for that, or have you simply forgotten to put down a border?
