No on both counts. Prior to I13, crits were unresisted by players, but not anymore.

So you're saying in pve, that criticals are resisted now as well?

It's not "now resisted"; criticals were always resisted in PvE. When you crit, the second part always did just as much damage as the primary hit. In other words, you hit for 200, crit for 200, total damage dealt was 400. If you were fighting a foe with 50% resistance, you'd hit for 100, crit for 100, total damage dealt was 200 (reduced by 50%).
If it was unresistible, it would have been hit for 100, crit for 200, total damage dealt would be 300. It never worked that way in PvE, only pre-I13 PvP.
Oh I see what you're saying. Thanks for the clarification.
Is the critical portion of an attack unresisted? What about in pvp?
