Do deadly strike, crushing blow, open wounds, etc.. do those have a cap on the %?

Also, what does crushing blow -do-? Heh, thanks.

Crushing blow is the physical version of static field: it takes off a percentage of the monsters current hitpoints. Contrary to static field, however, it is NOT capped at 50%...

As for caps on %... I don't know.

No cap as far as I know, but it is affected by your max 95% chance to hit.

Crushing Blow
This is a chance of reducing a monster's health by X% in a single blow.


-Default: 1/4th
-vs. Players: 1/10th
-vs. Hirelings: 1/10th
-vs. Champions, Uniques, Bosses: 1/8th
-with missile weapons, default: 1/8th
-with missile weapons, vs. Players: 1/20th
-with missile weapons, vs Hirelings: 1/20th
-with missile weapons, vs Champions, Uniques, Bosses: 1/16th
-The life removed is also scaled with number of players. So that if a monster has 450% more life due to 8 players (or whatever the value is) the life removed is further reduced by the same amount (450% would equal multiplying by 4.5 so the life removed by Crushing Blow is divided by 4.5).
Physical resistance does apply to Crushing Blow damage, but only if the resistance is positive. Crushing Blow Items stack in most cases. In 1.10 Crushing Blow is calculated before your normal damage. So, before doing the damage that you would normally do, there is a chance you will reduce the health of the monster by X% then normal damage apply to the resulting lower life. If you have more than one item with Crushing Blow, the probabilities will be added together. There will be one random check for a Crushing Blow. There is no check for each separate item, so one can not get multiple Crushing Blows in one attack.

Although it doesn't say here, I'm very sure that the chance of crushing blow cap is 95%.

There is NO CAP whatsoever to crushing blow, deadly strike, open wounds, or anything else that doesn't say it has a cap.

Do a search on the forums, Jarulf himself reported there is no such cap.

Once a hit is regestered, the cap is 100%. More is useless (by definition).

I agree :thumbsup: !
If you want a clue, just check Headstriker (http://www.battle.net/diablo2exp/items/exceptional/uswords.shtml)'s stats :lol: !

Problably from me, and I got it from Jarulf. Those code-diggers rule :)

if you think you have proof that the cap is 95%, let me know.
