I'm fairly positive it's still possible.

Back in the day, right after the Stalker changes there was something neat I did:
A double critical.
Then I got even luckier and landed something amazing: A critical AS.
People other than me reported this too, and seeing as it was exceedingly rare for the natural crit to co-allign with the hide crit (how you double crit) it was kept in game.
Now, the question is, does it still exist?
I know my stalker has done this a handful of times in the past, yet my friend has not, and Im trying to convince him that it can happen...well does it still?

Yes to answer your question it still exists, and I hope it doesnt get fixed. It seems to be lag related. I know on the ITF map I get this a ton going up the hill before the final encounter of the 3rd mission.

Thank You Devs for Merits!!!!
I've seen it happen before. Usually when something breaks Hide before the AS lands, but after it checks for Hide status. It's EXTREMELY rare, and I think the devs probably left it there as a kinda "here ya go" gift. An accidental gift, but a gift nonetheless.

Pff. So that's where all my scrapper's crits are going.

Well, us villains do like stealing things...
I landed a double-crit AS about two weeks ago, and hadn't heard that this was possible before that, but made a certain amount of sense. If you can naturally get a chance for a non-hidden attack to crit, even including an unhidden AS getting upgraded to full assassination damage, then it seems like it'd be possible for that chance to stack with the guaranteed crit from hidden status (especially if there are odd placate / lag induced effects going on).
Rule number six of an empathy defender is NEVER underestimate a blaster's ability to die. I don't care if he has CM, Fort, both RAs, bubbles (both FF and Sonic), and is fighting next to a Storm defender with hurricane on. If there is a way to die in that situation, the blaster will find it.
