I have noticed that DoT skills do not crit often or at all. Is apocalypse/ any other blizzard skill not critting at all? Im using firebirds set now with Apocalypse and none of my numbers crit high.
so crit chance and damage will host dos on paper and DoT is an average of that paper damage. got it.
Thats confusing since we are so used to seeing crit numbers and basing gearing on how to achieve high crit numbers. So log story short keep stacking paper and elemental damage as always
Yea, it is kind of confusing, but they did it because people were "fishing" for haunt crits in the soul harvest spec and it made the gameplay kind of annoying. I.e. they would keep casting haunt until it crit and then harvest it off. The change streamlined the game play and was an improvement imo.

(top end damage + low end damage)/2 * (1+chc * chd) = damage that shows up.
not sure if that math is exactly right, but the concept of dots no longer critting and them averaging in your crit / crit damage is sound.
