NotesEdit

Blood Rush multiplies critical chance based on the Melee Combo Counter tier increase.
- Without a Combo Counter, Blood Rush provides no bonus to critical chance. At 2x, it provides $1 + 0.60 \times (2 - 1) = 160%$ critical chance and at 3x, $1 + 0.60 \times (3 - 1) = 220%$ critical chance.
Blood Rush does work with quick melee strikes, as they do increase the Combo Counter, which is counted and maintained even if the weapon is not actively equipped.
Blood Rush cannot be equipped on Diwata, Exalted Blade, Valkyr Talons, Iron Staff, or Desert Wind.
Pairs very well with Body Count, Drifting Contact or Gladiator Rush, which allow players to keep the Combo Counter up more consistently.
Since thrown attacks from Glaive weapons aren't affected by the Combo Counter, they also will not receive any bonus from Blood Rush.

CalculationEdit

The formula for calculating the increased critical chance reached by the mod is as follows:

Crit Chance = Weapon Crit Chance \times [1 + Mod Crit Bonus + Blood Rush Bonus x (Combo Multi - 1)] + Static Crit Bonus

For example, a weapon with 20% base critical chance, modded with maxed True Steel (+120%) and Blood Rush, and with a Combo Multiplier of 4.0x would reach $20% \times (1 + 120% + 60% \times (4.0 - 1)) = 80%$ chance to crit.

$Crit Chance = Weapon Crit Chance \times [1 + Mod Crit Bonus + Blood Rush Bonus x (Combo Multi - 1)] + Static Crit Bonus$

Blood Rush Bonus: This is the bonus provided by Blood Rush based on its rank. Using mods from the Gladiator Set will increase this bonus further. For example, using two Gladiator Mods will bring the total value up to 80%.
Combo Multi: This is the multiplier from your melee combo counter.
Mod Crit Bonus: This is the total of all other equipped mod bonuses added together (excluding Static and Blood Rush bonuses). If you have a Rank 5 True Steel (+120%) and a Rank 3 True Punishment (+40%) equipped, your total Mod Crit Bonus totals to 160%.
Static Crit Bonus: This is the bonus provided by mods like Cat's Eye (+60%) or special abilities like Arcane Avenger (+30%). These bonuses stack additively with each other.

TriviaEdit

Prior to Update 26.0, Blood Rush provided +165% critical chance per combo level. Critical chance was calculated according to the following equation:

Crit Chance = [Base Crit Chance \times (1 + Mod Crit Chance) + Static Critical Chance Modifiers] \times [1 + (Blood Rush Multiplier \times Combo Multiplier)]
