Its does work for doing critical attack with spell fist? Tell me how.

[fuyukikun]

Nope

It's considered a "magical melee attack".

 

• Can't crit
• Doesn't use hit rating
• Can trigger Double Attack
• Is not blocked by Pneuma
• Is blocked by Safety Wall
• Is not penalized by Blinding Mist (extremely useful!)
• Can be blocked by Guard
• Can trigger reflective damage
• Can trigger Hindsight and other autocast abilities (generally not desired)

The Blinding Mist bit is really useful, as it allows you to deflect long range projectiles more easily and improve your dodge chance against melee mobs that might pound you, without ruining your ability to hit them with Spellfist.

Magic is Magic, Melee is Melee

there is no thing called Magical Melee 

 

Spell Fist is Magic, the source is but calculated as Melee, therefore the result is Melee.

 

- it does work with Dark Claw, to get the 1.5x damage bonus

- cant be blocked by GTB as well, because its melee

- but increasing physical attack factors wont give any benefits from this skill since the source of this skill is Matk.

 

Another example for the similar skill is Gate of Hell

the high lv ones calculated as Ranged but the source is same , from Atk and bonus based from current Hp

 

- having ranged % bonus wont give any benefits from this skill.

spell fist buff wears off when you do any skill?

the goh thing doesnt apply btw

how a skill is classified and what damage mods affects it are two separate things.
