Critical chance for Storm Kick and Eagles Claw?
As far as I know, the Stalker versions don't have any increased chance to critical - it's just the Scrapper versions.
Basically, I think the scaling critical chance is applied universally, and not modified by aspects of the power. It sucks for MA, but it makes sets with AoEs a lot nicer, since the chance for the AoE critical is the same as a single-target critical instead of half.
Eagle Claw used to have the 15% to critical out of hidden status (and could double critical from hidden status) but I think that changed with the Stalker buff - it's still listed, but at a 0% chance. You can still get the double critical on any Stalker attack using Placate if the out-of-hidden chance goes off while Placate's "hidden status" is active.
I haven't done thorough testing on it, though - I have nothing more to back up these statements than rumormongering and gossip (which often carries more weight than facts around here!).
it has gone from unconscionable to downright appalling that we have no way of measuring our characters' wetness.

I would hope that MA actually does have the bonus crit chances since the set seems to be lagging a little behind other stalker sets. It would be the unique perk of playing MA.
So a stalker's base critical chance is 10% when not in hide, right? Storm Kick (the scrapper version) has a 5% extra chance to critical. The stalker description says it also has a greater than average chance of critical. Does that mean Stalker Storm Kick has a 15% crit chance?
Eagles Claw is 15%. Is that added to the 10% base to make it 25%? Or flat 15%?
