Camelot Grab Bag Q&A

In this week's Grab Bag Q&A for Dark Age of Camelot, EA Mythic's Richard Duffek answers questions about dragon artwork, the effect of weaponskill, and more.
Q: Is Critical Strike the same as Celtic Dual; do I just need to put points into one of them to increase the chance and damage of my offhand swing?

A: No, they function differently. Critical Strike affects the style damage of your critical strikes styles, that's it. Celtic Dual and Dual Wield affect offhand chance to swing, as well as style damage from CD/DW styles. It does not affect actual damage of the offhand, as that will always do the same relative damage, regardless of spec.
