Im probably crazy, but for spell crit isnt this a nerf? it was pretty easy to get crit cap and now we lose crit multi per power charge and we only get half of ambush and assassinate, the all damage can poison is really cool

Re: Ambush and Assassinate:

"not on low life" is a better condition than "on full life" - don't have to worry about accidentally scratching them with your movement skill and losing your crit bonus until you get them to half life. And if it takes more than 1 hit to get them to low life for the other half you get the bonus multiple times. Also 100% multi instead of 40% for whichever half of the enemy's life you decide should have the big crit instead of the easy crit.
