Point Blank Shot and imp Critical

[Shymon]

Hello, New here in forum although i play 5 years xD

I have a question (maybe it should be posted in newbe disscusion idk and im sorry about that)

Ive done 12Ranger recently bcz i love bows and i like to make every my build mixed with bows (still only 6th life). I know they are not op still after those new changes, and its always better to go crossbow, but i play for fun. I like to imagine that only Archers are true hunters and masters of ranged and the only right for that to have a skill weapon (bow ofc) (inspiered by "Rangers" John Flanagan books) anyway skip to the question.

Ive took finnaly 4th core DWS and impr crit: ranged focus at 12 lvl and i realize that my bow (which have 5% crit base) with taken at start this new Point blank shot had 10% crit and so i assume those (core + ic) should give me 20% crit (one boost to 15%, other to 20%) am I right? Since both boost crit range and wiki ddo doesnt say it doesnt stack i was sure it has to be. I was so happpy to see finnaly crit numbers when using any bow not just name ones but it gives to my bow only 15%. For exaple for longbow with keen gives 20%. So im asking did my understand for keen and ic relations are wrong? I always thought that one is replaced by another but they are same just keen/impact save the feat slot (ofc if u were using one weapon with this enh all the time), or its some kind of bug? I do not report this yet bcz im not sure of my rights.

Greeting, thanks in advance for your response.

(And im sorry for my english but its not my native language)

Actually, bows are better than crossbows after the changes; the new manyshot is amazing.

It should give you 20% crit, yes. I'm not entirely sure what you mean about keen, did you test on a bow without keen and had 15% crit and test on a bow with keen and have 20% crit?

Also yes, keen and IC do not stack, however you always want to take IC anyway because it lets you get Overwhelming Critical in epic levels.

impr crit: ranged focus at 12 lvl

Did you take improved crit: ranged ( https://ddowiki.com/page/Improved_Critical ) or Weapon Focus ranged ( https://ddowiki.com/page/Weapon_Focus:_Ranged )? Just checking because you used the word focus in your post and want to make your just didn't take the wrong feat by mistake.

Yes I equip bow with keen and i have 20% crit, then i change to normal bow and it shows me 15% crit.

And Yes i took IC: Ranged weapons not this junky feat weapon focus :P
