:The patch notes state increases of 14, 8, and 3. If they had the same chance as everything else then it is 67%. If they didn't... well me thinks this is a good time to surf code to find the actual chances.--[[User:Peckham33|Peckham33]] <sup>[[User_talk:Peckham33|talk]]</sup> ''<sub><small>[[Help:Contents|Help is always given to those who ask for it]]</small></sub>'' 18:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Odds of Landing a critical hit

The odds of a normal weapon landing a critical hit is 42%. The most recent person to edit this page lists the flamer, machine gun, and lbx 10 as having a 74% chance to land critical hit. By my count (42+14+8+3=67), these weapons have a 67% chance to land a critical hit. They get a 14% bonus to getting one critcal hit, 8% to get two, and %3 to get three. Was there a source I missed?--Seth (talk) 07:47, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

huh... I only copied what someone else had put down as a total % chance. math looks goo to me and it matches the patch notes too

I changed the number based on the numbers on the machine gun page. 39+28+6=73. I think I might have fat fingered somewhere for the 1 extra. If these numbers are wrong then we need to change them. Peckham33 talk Help is always given to those who ask for it 17:06, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
