"-25% critical mod for helmets"

How does the perk work?

If your opponent's helmet has a -10 critical chance mod, does the perk lower it by 25 percentage points, making it 0,

or does the perk lower it by 25 percent, making it -7.5?

[Kombajn]

I think that this is the second option.

"-25% critical mod for helmets"

Where do that come from?

[Sarakin]

I think its from pastebin document regarding perks, that was on cbt.

Jush checked, indeed. Well I do hope they changed it and that ignore helmet reduction of chance crit, or I will have to redo one of my lvl 24  Seems really worthless in that case.

I'm not sure what you mean, but one of the recent updates changed the perks that ignore armor critical mods to affect only critical chance.

I still don't know if it works in the first or the second way I described in the first post though.

Could we get a word from devs about how it really works right now?

[Wallace]

Judging from name both stats are kind of critical modifier... Not that anyone can be sure of it... ;P

[yoz]

I haven't taken my last perk, waiting to find out how this one works.

From Gatling:

"It doesnt effect the critical roll hit, I think. Just crit damage. "

Lol the exact opposite that said in changelog:

- All perks that ignore armours' CMs now reduce Chance CM instead of Power CM.

Here is the full message:

"as for the eye crit modifier from helmets, I -believe- it is a negative mod to the crit modifier that armor provides. So if you crit and roll damage is 50, armor crit mod might be(this is example, not sure how formula works) is 40, taking 40 damage, I imagine the perk lowers that even more by -25%.   

That is a bad formula example but I hope it kinda gets the point across.  It doesnt effect the critical roll hit, I think. Just crit damage."

[Sarakin]

Theres just crit chance and crit mod (meaning lower/higher crit. table roll). Theres not crit. damage.
So I believe it affects crit chance now (latest changelog) and takes absolut of 25%, not percentage (otherwise, 25% of 10% crit mod of ca helmet wouldnt make a difference).
Comparing to Spray and Pray that should work like unaimed equivalent of RBtE.

It ignores 25% of the Helmets crit chance. It is a bit weak and should just ignore it all I think.

At the time I imagined it to be 25% I hadn't even done the armour's crit chance mods, so it was a bit of a guess
