Okay. HMF has a slightly higher armor and resistance than other ships. So the damage dealed will always be less.
It might be, that you run against someone with a gauntlet, wich is giving defense to every ship. But I would doubt it.
I do not know how the different armor and resistance values of ships are scaling the dealed damage to each other. It m8ght be, that the higher defense values of HMF are responsible for your difference in damage on different ships.
So the simplest way to really see, if you crit is the colourcode.
Otherwise it would be useful, of you could provide a video, in which the same ship is dealing damage to HMF and another. How high is the damage on HT?
I'm sorry. I feel I haven't explained my issue well. I have no problem with the amount of damage dealt by TFP with regular or critical hit.
My issue is that TFP has crit hit chance of 54.29% but will never hit critically an HMF with both pilots G12 with zetas (fully maxed), and would very rarely achieve a critical hit against 6* HMF or where one of the pilots is g11. So this 54.29% crit hit chance actually results in 1% successful crit hits against not maxed (in gear and zetas) HMFs and 0% successful hits against fully maxed HMFs. Against any other ships it works as intended, way more frequent. Out of 10 battles TFP will make one successful crit hit against non-maxed HMF, all else is just regular hits and to me this is not the 54.29% crit hit chance I should be achieving, am I right?
So it's not about the armor or resistance of HMF but more about crit hit chance of TFP and crit hit avoidance of the HMF. HMF seems to have 99% crit hit avoidance from the TFP.
More info on the fleets.
My TFP is fully maxed with T6 mods and 3 pieces of G12+.
My fleet is Chimaera 5* leading TFP, Poe and Bossk. Poe and Bossk have fully maxed abilities and both are G12, Bossk is with zeta on his leader ability, Their ships are 7* with fully maxed abilities. Opponents' fleet are always - HMF, Bossk, Bigs or Ghost.
I hope this clarifies.
- Darklight_BG0016 years agoSeasoned TravelerWill this be addressed?
To make the explanation even simpler. Out of 10 fights TFP will hit 9 times with red damage and only 1 if at all with yellow. The crit hit chance of 54% and mathematics say that TFP should hit at the very minimum 6 times with yellow damage. Other people from my guild are having the same problem and I just saw another post on the same issue - "Crit Chance not calculating properly in fleet ".
Obviously this is a problem and the game incorrectly calculates the crit hit chance specifically for TFP against HMF and it's puzzling why no one is addressing it. As long time player I feel I'm not given my fair chance of winning with the right fleet.- Darklight_BG0016 years agoSeasoned Traveler
Bump.
One month since original post and nothing.
This is most frustrating when the game is not behaving as expected, as described in game and nobody seems to care.
I'm beginning to think this particular behavior is intentional as it'll ruin the HMF meta, which apparently is not in CG's plans.
Really hope to be proven wrong.

Hi @Darklight_BG001 and sorry for the late reply, we've missed your original post.
We've tested this today and out of 20 battles we've managed to hit the enemy HMF critical with the Imperial TIE Fighter's "T-s8 Targeting Computer" 7 times. Please be aware that this not representative by all means, which would require a lot more test runs. Please keep also in mind that a 50% chance not necessarily means 5 out of 10 times, since the 50% chance is calculated individually for each attack. We've also checked the stats during a battle and they all appear to be and working as intended.
