+(2.5+0.5*[character level])%melee critical chance, for as long as this mode is active. Maximum melee critical chance bonus from this ability in Origins is +15%, achieved at level 25. In Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening, the maximum bonus is 20%. - Conjuration time: 1s.
Notes
- Upkeep is in stamina.
- The bonus to critical hit chance applies to melee weapons only; ranged critical chance is not affected.
