Can anyone explain archery master III to me?

[Abomination72]

I did a run with the archer in act 3. Went all in on crit change / crit damage. On main weapon and as much as possible on every ability I got.

Killed millions of monsters. Reached Level 103. Killed the boss.
And still only about 43.000 out of 50.000 crits?

Is it just crits from the main weapon that count?

Edit: thanks for the help guys! Got it.

I got it running a regen+crit build with Fencer's Gloves. By the end of the run I had 80% crit chance, and the gloves gave me an extra guaranteed crit. Do that with also stacking attack speed, pierce, and extra projectiles, and you should be able to get it.

Allright. Will give that a try later on.
Thanks for the hints.

You're killing mobs too fast - try to keep damage and crit damage as low as possible and choose crit chance + tons of attack speed instead. Don't upgrade skills with +damage when avoidable. Use Wind crown, +20% attack speed gloves, the +10 crit chance ring and you're good to go. No +damage equipment!

Ringblade is amazing for this, get both of it's core upgrades, pick Attack Speed and Crit Chance traits, elec ring for mastery and take Archer for projectiles and you have 100% crit plus a passive aura of whirling death that will keep you safe without you using your main attack to easily rack up 50k+ crits

Take all the abilities that give small projectiles together with attack speed and crit chance. You want to see dozens of arrows/darts/blades fly in every direction. Don't take hard hitting abilities that kill monsters in one hit and don't use magic abilities with dots on them.

Super easy to pull off on the bridge level. Just go full crit as soon as you can and bash the advancing wall of invincible enemies as needed. The only crit item I used was the 10% ring. Other than that, stack crit asap (obviously), bonus attacks/projectiles, and attack speed (more attacks and projectiles = more crits).

it feels like millions of monsters but if you look at the kill counter you will see each run ends at 20-30k kills usually.

you want to optimize around lots of tiny hits that crit for less without killing using sub weapons or go smash the ghost wall to build crit counts on enemies that don't die.

I managed it with main attack+transfixion (fully mastered upgraded). I set as much crit and attack speed on her as possible.
