Arcane Mage's "Arcane Potency" talent doesn't work

Arcane Mage's "Arcane Potency" talent doesn't work. It's supposed to increase the crit damage of arcane spells by 100% with 2/2 points invested into the talent. Currently it doesn't work at all. For example, an arcane spell may hit for 100, but it crits for 200 even with 2/2 points in Arcane Potency, when it should be critting for 300.

Wrong, if no talent u crit for 150, 50 is ur crit dmg with 100% crit dmg increase it becomes 100 so u do 200% it works like this for all crit dmg talents.

After doing some research, I found that physical damage gets 200% crit damage, while spells only get 150%. I was under the impression that it was 200% across the board.

Thanks for the correction.
