i assume you mean one or two things. 1) All the crit fix did was make those crits appear yellow, Electric Shield still doubles crit damage sent through the shield. yes, a lot of people don't realize this and yes, it's a solid buff to yourself and your team. Still, there's other frames who provide a boost equal to or much greater than double damage, and those bonuses apply to all damage, not just crit damage(which aside from the Synapse and Soma, there's not a lot of good crit weapons). So I'd say you're overrating it if that's the case.

2) Surely you can't be referring to that silly "puncture through 7 shields" crap. You know, the one that only works on weapons modded for pucnture, creating a wall for those who aren't using puncture mods? The one that either takes hilariously high amounts of energy or has a hilariously low duration, depending on how you mod it? The one that, once again, other frames can provide much better/reliable boosts to damage for a team? The one (and this applies to both of these) that will likely be patched eventually, possibly soon? The one that's only useful for bosses, which are already a joke, AND there's much easier tricks to kill bosses easily?

Surely you can't be referring to that, because it's not much more than a gimmick, one that is outperformed by other frames playing normally, without relying on glitches. And of course, I still can't be sure what you're talking about, as you are just "a pretentious... providing no empirical data at all." Don't go insulting others for not giving info, when all you've essentially said is "you say Volt is bad?!?!? fuck you pretentious you don't give any data, you suck for not knowing why Volt is good, I won't tell you why because fuck you I'm right."

I don't care what people think about Volt, just don't be stupid.
