Was standing up top for Nexus weekly. When minitaur spawned behind us, I shot him a few times then jumped over and blink striked him in the butt/back area and did 1000-some damage, yellow numbers. My friend got one critical doing this, but he said it was only 10 points damage.
Tried shooting from behind and got nothing but white numbers.
I know this sounds like a ridiculous request, but let's spend some time stabbing, punching and slapping minotaur butts and backs and see if we get criticals. I would like to know if this is a legit critical spot or just a glitch. (Ran the weekly twice for my buddy and it worked both times so I think it's legit).
If this is real, why would they do that?
Edit: Apparently back stab shows as crit. Move along nothing to see here, sadly
-
Bladedancer has a perk that makes blink strike do significantly more damage from behind, it shows up as a crit. For guns, there are no crit areas for Minotaurs.

Blink Strike backstab perk shows as a crit.

Pretty sure you had backstab. When you backstab an enemy with no shield, yellow numbers do show up. Far as I know, those assholes have no crit spot.

Going to try to duplicate with and without extra damage perk equipped.

Doesn't hunter have a perk that gives critical damage when meleeing from the back?

Bump. I would really like to know if anyone else has experienced this
