Emma Frost crit resistance

Emma frost is reducing Ghost's guaranteed crit hit rate while in diamond form. Is this intended? If not, I want to know what you guys do to the code that results in some new shenanigans with Ghost every month. Please look into this. Its difficult to show images that prove this and the video I have is too large.

There you go @Kabam Lyra. The second clip showcases this much better as there are multiple non crit intercepts at the start and the first clip also has one at the start I believe.
Corvus always Crits because he has a crit chance of 0 and I don’t think it can be affected because it doesn’t have a value / % assigned to his stats. I think the Glaive charge has its own 100% crit stat so it can’t be reduced. That’s why he was able to Crit on glancing , but damage was reduced.
The key factor here is Corvus has true damage . Which ignores armor and crit resistances. Ghost does not have true damage .
Ghost However does have a value attributed to her crit chance % . So I think what is happening is ghost is not necessarily “failing” but Emma frost is crit resistance is ignoring the “success” of ghost ability.
Let’s assume ghost with her passive precision has 100% chance , and then her crit chance that she gets from her base stats is 18.4% maybe this gives her a 118.4% chance to crit .
Maybe Emma crit resistance is reducing the % below 100% b
Whenever ghost is fighting a sentinel, this happens as well sometimes.
Kabam made this post:
What Does each stat do once it's been turned into a percentage?
Armor, Block Proficiency, Physical Resist, Energy Resist - Damage Reduction. Percentage of the damage that is reduced from incoming attacks
Crit Rating - Percentage chance to score a critical hit
Crit Damage Rating - Percentage that your damage is multiplied by when a critical hit is scored.
Armor Pen, Block Pen, Crit Resist - How much of the opponent's stat is ignored
What does it involve? I died against medusa mini boss (Global node: dodge 5%, local node: Debuff immune and critical Resistance, node 55), she evaded my hit.
It makes sense:
Ghost lands critical hits that cannot be evaded
Ghost doesn't land a Guaranteed crit, due to crit resistance
Medusa can evade that hit, since it's not critical
Nice
Here are the abilities of Ghost and corvus:
• Upon Phasing, gain a Precision Passive for 6 seconds which guarantees the next hit to be Critical and consumes the Precision Passive. Ghost can only land Critical Hits through her abilities.
At the start of the fight, Corvus Glaive gains 20 permanent Glaive charges, granting him True Damage and guaranteed Critical Hits with his glaive as long as his Immunity is active. A charge is spent every time Corvus Glaive hits with Basic Attack using his glaive.
It's not a matter of Chance, ghost and corvus has not a chance to land a critical. it's guaranteed that they will make a critical hit. I mean, they have not 100% chance to land a critical, they LAND a critical, stop.
But, as I see... it's not true. Moreover @Texas_11 said an interesting thing.... True Damage bypasses armor and resistances... so it should bypass Critical Resistance, since it's a Resistance indeed. Same thing with True Strike... a Killmonger should bypass Crit resistance while he has TS active. I hope i explained it well.
you know.. "Cannot" beats "always", but it's not the following case. Glancing is a thing, critical resistance is another ting.

Corvus would be the same but his true damage buff allows him to bypass resistances.
But I guess it can be effected by resistances.
And crits are never affected by AAR
