Critical Rush + Camouflaged Hunter, from stealth?

Holycannoli

I'm thinking of uses for Camouflaged Hunter over Evil Hunter and since the character uses 2 handed and bow I thought that combo could work well. I'm not experienced enough with 2 handed though, so does Critical Rush benefit from stealth in any way?

If it doesn't then I might consider Evil Hunter instead of Camouflaged. Spike damage is more useful in PvP but a chance to regain stamina instead of increased first strike damage might be more useful.

I think the stamina regen is only works vs undead a daedra anyway so it is probably the default choice for pvp.

Nope, critical rush does not gain benefit from stealth modifiers, so Camo Hunter doesn't really work there

You could use it with bow though (e.g. Bow Heavy Attack/Snipe->Critical Rush).

As far as I know, the only gap closer that triggers it (and stealth damage/stun) is Ambush.

Doesn't critical rush break stealth (before strike)? It seems that all charge skills exept teleport strike and it's morphs break stealth.

Yeah actually I think all charge skills break stealth before you hit the target.

I still might go Camouflaged for stealth heavy bow attacks and snipe.

Charge does not work with sneak.
Use Wrecking Blow instead. Not only will Wrecking Blow devastate your target, it will also proc Camo. WB > CR > Exe = lol
Snipe is another obvious choice for Camo. I use both.

Cheers.

Heh.. Wreaking blow hits ~20k from stealth in PvP (and more then 30-35k in PvE). So you'll need only to finish.
