[Bug report] Ice Shards talent

Hey!

I've been leveling my frost mage and took the ice shards talent.
The tooltip reads: Increases the critical strike damage bonus of your frost spells by 20/40/60/80/100%.
I have 4 points on this talent, having 80% more crit damage.
I cast a frostbolt for around 130 damage. When it crits it does 260 damage. Exactly 200% damage if it crits.
I'm fairly sure, having 4 points in frost shards, it should crit for 280%. That being 364 damage.

I hope I've given you enough information regarding this bug and hope for a fix in a patch soon! :D

Normal spell crit damage is 150%. The 50% being the bonus. With 5 points in ice shards your frostbolt crits for 200%. it does not work the way you think it works. 4 points it crits 190%.
The 50% is the bonus that is increased with the talent.
