Hello, does this trait increase total damage from critical hits by 10% or does it just add +10% to critical damage?

It's the same thing. Critical hits do 150% of base damage and this adds 10%. It's like giving 150 points in Ferocity, but as a flat 10%.--Relyk ~ talk < 17:16, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
No it's not the same thing, i'll show you an exemple to explain:
Let's say that you have 100% crit chance and 230% critical damage. Your damage will be: d=base damage*2.3. If you have a 10% damage boost then it will be d=b*2.3*1.1= b*2.53. If you add 10% to crit damage then it will be d=b*2.4.
I've tested on pvp golems and now i can confirm this trait gives a 10% damage boost when you critically hit an enemy whose health is above 50%hp rather than giving +10% critical damage like Flawless Strike.
