The end of critical damage mod sets?
The way the game is going with g12+ and now g13 there is a significant increase in characters base stats. So much so that percent based mod sets such as health and offense are becoming more important....

But it’s a fixed 42% percent on a fixed base percentage. Where as, as offense goes up the 15% is based off of a higher stat. Maybe it doesn’t make much difference, I’m not certain but first look suggested to be offense is better to go with now than CD.
This makes offense set slightly better but not makes CD set useless. For G13 offense set caps at 15% max total damage increase if you don't have offense on mods (which is highly unlikely if you are focusing on offense). CD set caps at 15.6% total damage increase with 100% crit rate and CD triangle, and at 20% without CD triangle. So there is some number of crit% where CD set is still better than offense.
But combat buffs, debuffs and toons abilities are also matter. If you have consistent CD up buff, or CC down debuff, or increased CD from abilities then offense set is always superior. And if you have consistend CD down debuff (pretty rare case, I know) then CD set is superior at much lower crit rates.
