what happens here if the first roll is "attack lands" but the second roll is neither crit nor hit? those two numbers don't add up to 100%.....
Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. What I meant was that, given my 57.86% chance to crit a Backstab, and assuming that the attack has to land (i.e. only 95% of attacks even have a chance to crit) because it's a two-roll system, the overall rate at which I would crit any swing would be 95% * 57.86% = 54.97%. And 40.03% of my swings would hit. 5% would be dodged. Those three numbers add up to 100%.

Politicians can indeed piss on our collective leg and tell us it's raining, but they need the cooperation of the mass media, running stories like "Leg Moisture Expected to Rise: Piss Certainly Not Involved, Say Officials."
