I was doing some testing with sparkling stick + illusion hunter bow in training grounds. According the the item description posted by the CM, there should be a CRI +30 bonus to long ranged attacks when using Illusion Hunter Bow. Note that I made sure to be more than 4 cells away from my target so the long ranged crit should be triggering. I tested some combinations of autoattack and FAS with and without the sparkling stick and using different buffs to try different values of crit:
- Auto-attack without Sparkling Stick
- Auto-attack with Sparkling Stick
- FAS without buffs, without Sparkling Stick
- FAS without buffs, with Sparkling Stick
- FAS with buffs, without Sparkling Stick
- FAS with buffs, with Sparkling Stick
I'm not sure if FAS should be triggering the crit (in fact the wiki entry suggests that it wouldn't), but I feel like auto-attacks should at least be getting the bonus.
