I didn't really want to complicate things but that person posted a really misleading and untrue statement about getting at least 2 crits with 22 pellets so I just wanted to clear that up.

And for your 10 pellet crit proc thing:

10% crit/pellet = 90% no crit/pellet

10% proc/pellet = 90% no proc/pellet

0.9 x 0.9 = 81% no crit or proc/pellet = 19% crit or proc/pellet

0.1 x 0.1 = 1% crit and proc/pellet

And referring back to my math before:

65.13% at least one crit/shot = 34.87% no crit/shot

65.13% at least one proc/shot = 34.87% no proc/shot

0.3487 * 0.3487 = 12.15% no crit or proc/shot = 87.85% at least one crit or proc/shot

0.6513 * 0.6513 = 42.42% at least one crit and proc/shot

So most likely result is getting one crit or one proc, not one of each in the same shot.

The moment you deal with two separate events (crit and proc), you can't just average them out.

But really, statistics are silly. It's all based around luck so

TL;DR slap on multishot, crit/proc chance mods and shoot things
