Sniper crit luck

(1/4) > >>

Oldfart:
Pretty much all sniper builds I've seen have 10 luck and all the crit perks.

But is it viable in pvp to make a 6 luck SG sniper without finesse but with the crit perks?
Would I still be doing decent damage with an occasional crit while also having higher endurance?
Or is the damage of non critting sniper rifles so low I might as well not try? 

Was wondering about it as the crit chance from luck has been lowered now anyway.

virus341:
Ehhm, yes, you wont crit as often as a guy with 10 luck, but how can it decrease your crit damage? Take better criticals and you will be fine. And, yes again, non crit damage is pretty low.

Vanessa:
Check the character builder crit chances for a general feel of how it will be.

With 26% critical chance (6 luck, finesse, and more criticals twice) you have like 87% chance to critical on eye shots.

Having 21% (assuming you take more criticals 3 times) isn't going to be that much lower.

Oldfart:
@ virus341:I understand that damage per crit is the same. What I was asking is if you don't crit as much as a pure crit build are you still viable in pvp? Or is the damage for non critting shots so low that you don't stand a chance in pvp.

@vanessa: Don't think they updated the crit chances yet in the builder. % crit chance has been lowered. That's why I was wondering if going high hp way might be more viable now.


What sniper build works better in pvp:

3
8
10
1
7
6
6
toughness, crits, lifegiver, weapon handling

or:

10
toughness, crits, lifegiver, weapon handling

virus341:
Yeah, and how was written in someone's post, finess is for crippler-sniper, you will feel pain playing it alone, but it will break those limbs easiely. Cant prove it, coz I didnt play crippler. But it makes sense, 35% base crit chance is awesome, additional damage resistance of a target is an ass, your role would be breaking arms\eyes\legs, but not doing damage. I personally would not play that.

Edit: str 3? Are you energy? And how was written many times, you wont need 7 int, 5 is enough if you will rais only battle skill, and 6 for some additional sp for, lets say, outdoorsman.
