I did some addiational testing by your question, and here are the results.
 * Increasing crit chance and crit damage will not increase the crit chance and crit damage bonus of the orb itself. The additional crits are static, and simply added onto the weapon fired through it.
 * If you mod for critical damage on your weapon (Nukor for example) the resulting crit damage will be increases, as it will simply add an additional ~1.8x to the crit multiplier as well as letting it crit about 60% of the time or so.
 * Modding for crit chance on the mutalist quanta itself or a weapon with less than 15% crit chance is not worth it, since the added crit chance by the bubble does not seem to be applied as a new base crit chance, so crit chance increases will only affect the base crit chance of the weapon itself.

For example, i have a riven mod that adds critical damage on my mutalist quanta, and shots fired through it deal more damage. If i add Vital Sense without changing anything else, it will do even more damage on crits. This is why i suggested below that a ideal riven would add critical damage, although i was wrong about critical chance.
