i think it's a process of getting 2 chances to get double damage.. but i don't think it compounds... like, if you fail your 30% critical, it'll check you're 70% deadly, but if you succeed w/ur initial hit and do 2x dmg w/crit, i don't think it'll do another check for deadly, that's just my limited understanding however, so don't be suprised if i stand corrected by sum1 more inept to the inner workings of d2...
