Critical Block... Block?

OK everyone. So as many of you know, Critical is useless with every boss basically having Critical Block. So I was thinking, what if there was a block to Critical Block, like Pierce or something. It would help allot in battles, we get the excitement back. Maybe instead of being a stat, it could be a Star spell: Pierce Critical Block for 4 rounds. Tell me what you guys think

I haven't gotten that far into the game yet, but that sounds useful.

That's what higher crit does ;)

The spell you are asking for already exists -> Vengeance.

I'm not sure how this could be done, but I do like where you are coming from. Wizards only seem to be able to use Criticals in Celestia, and possibly Zafaria. However, you will almost never see a Critical go through in Azteca. I believe this would be a good way of bringing the Criticals back to the higher levels.

No need for this just use Vengeance tc. I find with 280 fire critical rating plus vengeance my crits go through quite a lot.

Or, they could just lower the block factor of bosses to a more random level . . .

wrong critical and block are chances if you have 120% critical rating and they have 100% block the critical isn't gonna take affect

That isn't how it works. Higher crit will overpower part of the block. It's been tested. You can land critical hits even on a player showing 100% block.

No. Higher critical does not indicate strength of critical. It only indicates higher probability of getting a critical.
