Critical hit chance is one of the most powerful and popular item modifiers in the game. As the name suggests, items and skills with this property increase a character's chance to score a critical hit. This not only increases a character's DPS, but many other effects and procs trigger off Critical Hits, making a substantial value in this stat essential for many of the more popular builds in the game.
All characters deal 5% critical hit chance at 50% critical hit damage to start with, and raise both figures with equipment and skills. Many passive skills directly boost critical hit chance, and modifiers to improve it are highly-valued on helms, rings, amulets, gloves, bracers, and weapons. Other item slots can boost CHC as well, via legendaries and sets.
The amount of CHC required to succeed varies with character classes and builds, but 25% is a low figure for a high level character. Most players try for 40% or more in their end game gear, and amounts up around 60% are not uncommon for very well-geared characters.
