    Currently we have Increased weapon damage % and Increased Critical Damage % on Weapons. These are great.
    And due to this, most players use +Damage gems on weapons and +Attack Speed % gems on Weapon Decorations.

    No one uses +Critical Hit Rate Gems on Weapons or Weapon Decorations.

    So, I had this idea.

    What if Weapon Decorations may carry lines with + Increased Critical Hit Rate % on this item?

    This can go from 5% to 200%.

    For example, if I find a Weapon Decoration with a +50% Critical Hit Rate on this item and If I included Critical Hit Rate gems on the Weapon Decoration, then those will be multiplied by that percentage.

    This will only affect the total Critical Hit Rate on the Weapon Decoration but will have no effect on Critical Hit Rate on other items.

    This will make players to think twice and there will be a use of Critical Hit Rate gems.

    That would make getting crit rate of 80% easy as the CHR would now have two multipliers, one on the item and then one on the overall CHR from items like Bloodtooth.This would potentially let people get 80% crits even while being double handed and single handed with offensive offhand will have no reason to be used other than speed which is not so crucial in PVE.

    I don't think you read it properly.
    The multiplier applies only to the attribute lines and gems equipped on the Weapon Decorator itself.
    Not to anything else.

    I read it correctly i said there are already overall multipliers to crit hit rate like from Bloodtooth (which gives 25% increased CHR).

    Much like %IWD and ID

    IWD - increase to damage of weapons and gem in that weapon ----On weapons
    ID - Increase to overall damage (including greens) --------On torso

    The Grimmage Adornment already has the % critical increase. It may come to fruition.

    I am not talking about making it generally applicable to your overall Critical Hit Rate. I understand there are items which have properties that increases your overall stats.

    One of the main reasons for my proposal is to increase the popularity of the now considered as useless Gems for Critical Hit Rate.

    No one in their right mind uses these Gems. They are considered worthless and most players simply sell them to the NPC Vendor.

    If we have Weapon Adornments that increases the attractiveness of these Gems, then people will find a use for them.

    Like @Troneck86 said, there is already one item with such a stat and it has its uses but there is a part of me that hopes that it isn't added to the pool of possible enchantments you can get on an item because it will just make getting a good item even harder. I shudder to think how many torsos, gloves and boots have been ruined by getting damage lines or resistance lines when you are looking for HP, armor, %damage, attack speed, or run speed.

    You are all forgetting what CMs said about the Crafting 2.0.
    You can have/place enchantments on items that never have had that kind of enchantment before ... i.e. boots with attack speed or gloves with travel speed.

    I'm still waiting for the description that they promised to us for us to tell them everything that they are doing wrong so that they hopefully won't release as a broken of a product.

    A lot of players use those gems since they have been enhanced. I have 2 high tier onyxes in my arrows, that means 10% chr, luckily I didn't sell them.

    Btw, I like the idea, but the bonus should be something like 10%-40%.

    It is "soon" from BP's point of view.
