[QUOTE="Steampunkette, post: 8842403, member: 6796468"] See, I read it the opposite way. Critical hit still triggers Furious Critical, but the extra damage of the crit itself (including Vicious weapon damage) gets negated if the reaction is used to sacrifice the shield. And the idea that "they would've just spelled it out" isn't really all that accurate. The person who wrote up the Berserker and the person who designed Shields as crit-negators may have done so weeks or months apart in the overall design process. Fortunately, this is the kind of forum where the designers, themselves, can directly answer questions! We just have to hope Morrus or one of the others in charge or connected to the project points their eyes here. [/QUOTE]
