Guys I know this is not the best thread to post this but here it goes. I've been extremely annoyed by my lack of crits lately, and since we started trying KJ I've been noting my crits every try and comparing to my spellbook crit. From tonight here it goes:

33/46
35/24
28/33
21/22
44/36
15/16
48/33
22/8
32/30
43/41

10 tries, first is auto shot crit second is steadyshot crit and my spellbook crit was 41%. When you sum them up and divide by 20 you get 30.5 crit overall. That's exactly 10.5% below my spellbook crit throughout the whole night. It's more than 3000 arrows for those so I think it's a big enough pool. I resetted recount after we kill the summoners every try so I can get the data only on KJ himself. I don't usually believe in bugged characters or anything but can someone explain to me how an RNG (assuming it really works) can be 10% off the target. It's even more than 10% since the boss had judgement of crusader on him almost all the time. Are there people who experience lack of crits? Or are there people on the other end of the spectrum, experiencing more crits than their spellbook? I had many tries where I had 15% below my spellbook crit, I didn't have ANY tries where I had 15% above my spellbook crit. So does blizzard's RNG work in a way such that you can get unlucky, but you can't get lucky? This is a major issue since we all use spreadsheets to calculate our damage and gear choices and the spreadsheets assume if we have 40% crit, we are going to crit 40%. If the RNG functions in a different way than that (I can't think of any reason why though), then the calculations will be off.
