Okay, so we have this new feature:
Let's see if we can figure out how it works. Please post here when you take a crit how much the crit was for and how much it was reduced, the mob and mob level, and specify if the attack was ranged or melee, and your dodger or evader level (according to the type of attack).
For reference we have this information on how PvP evading works, which might be relevant. Or the system might be the same as the chance of evading mobs in general, with a 15% max, which would mean each mob will be different in spite of its level.
Update
Here's the conclusion. I still welcome new data to refine the equation or challenge the conclusion. If you report, please include:
Changes (in VU 14.4)
- It is now possible to reduce the amount of critical damage received. A base chance to reduce critical damage by up to 15% has been introduced and is calculated automatically based on avatar skill level in relation to the attacking creature’s level. Items and boosts will also be introduced which will allow incoming critical damage to be reduced even further.

It was a level 10 Halix Stalker, I am level 20.74 evader.

- Type of crit (armor penetration or additional damage)
- crit reduction
- your Evader profession level (not Evade skill level) or Dodger if it's a ranged attack mob
- the mob level, maturity, and name
- for armor penetration crits, your armor+plates worn and the damage you received
