Which health consumables can crit?

As far as I know, health potions can crit, but can health stones also crit?

Also, is the crit chance random or effected by your crit chance?

That’s actually a really good question. I didn’t know health potions could crit. From a common-sense perspective, you’d expect Healthstones to be able to crit as well if health potions can. However, I’m not sure anyone knows the answer apart from the developers themselves.

It would be great to get an answer from someone who understands the mechanics in detail, especially whether your character’s critical chance affects this.

I think Xaryu, one of the streamers regarding the beta duels, once mentioned about a lock having his heal crit. I reckoned it was regarding his health stone, but I am not sure. I am however certain that many who played beta would know.

Even those that followed the duel competition probably know for sure.

I am not sure myself…

Oh, that’s true. But it wasn’t normal health potions. It was the type that has a chance of giving you a debuff or something. I think those are the ones that can crit, if I remember correctly. The orange potions, I believe. I’m going off the top of my head here, so I’d have to look them up to be sure.

Maybe basic health potions can’t crit after all. Either way, it would be interesting to get a definitive answer.

It would indeed, I can’t wait ti.. I will wait patiently until someone answers this question… calm down, don’t get exited (that last bit I tell myself!)

Do they crit in retail? If not, then it seems like a bug.

Forever ain’t retail though.

True, but Forever has many of it’s features lifted from retail. Like how dots work, for instance. So if health pots and such can crit in retail, then I have a feeling them critting here is intentional.

I understand what you mean and tbh it is what I want to know: which health boosts can crit? Can health stones crit as well? I just want to know!

Did a quick google search. In classic, they can crit, and scale with physical crit chance. Even mana potions could crit. This applies to both potions and healthstones. They don’t crit in retail.

So looks like we are going with how it worked during Classic, which is great.

Assuming what you said about beta is correct, that is, and it was potion/healthstone that crit for health.
