A weap crit build?

Zyrlux

I was wondering if there's a good concept within a weapon crit build.

I'm thinking bow with khajiit, maybe NB but I'm unsure of all the passives and bonus.

Anyone with more knowledge able to shed some light?

Dual wield daggers.

NB is good, can use bow and dual wield daggers, both have critical passives available. Khajiit crit passive does not work, do a search. Medium armour also helps.

I thought about it but Dual Wield Daggers is gated behind 41 for the crit passive, doesn't have the benefit of range or DoT. I may run both though.. Can't see the harm in having dags as my back up. DoT up at range then burn em up close.

Zyrlux

Why do I keep hearing about the 4th passive not working on most races? And why hasn't this been fixed?

If you want to use primarily a bow, then I'd use 2h as the back up so you can buff up from stealth with rally for the 20% major brutality.

Apparently it was fixed a wee bit ago, according to Gina

Nice ty.

Khajiit nb dual precise daggers and bow. Night mothers gaze and hundings. See @Gilliamtherogue

My Khajiit NB is sitting at 94% crit with buffed wep damage at almost 3900. I used dw on both bars with flying dagger as my ranged attack. It is quite fun to play.

How on earth did you get that? Post build please.

@DRXHarbinger I'm guessing 7x Medium, 5x NMG/4x Hundings, DW w/Precise Daggers and Thief Mundus.

That should put it in that ballpark.

Yeah he's probably using a set up similar to this, with agility jewellery for more weapon damage too, maybe camo hunter for the extra crit, plus each assassination ability gives a little bit more too.

But I figure he'd be using x5 hundings and x4 NMG cause the 5piece of hundings gives a big weapon damage boost.

What does all of this mean? Hundings and nmg? DW (Dual Wield Precise daggers I think)

Hunding's rage and Night mother's gaze armor sets, both are crafted sets:




The precise trait gives extra critical chance on weapons. Dual daggers provides extra critical chance from dw passives.


Personally, I still like running 2hander on my nightblade, so I cant get my crit or weapon damage nearly that high, but burst damage is higher and the 2h is arguably more efficient. I use a bow backup for AoE and ranged damage, which does get a crit bonus and is far better than dual wield for aoe situations.


I use 5 hundings / 3 night mother's and the warrior mundus for extra weapon damage (or sometimes shadow for extra crit damage). I tend to try and maximize raw weapon damage over critical chance, but I pvp almost as much as pve and crit chance pretty much does nothing for you in cyrodiil.

Zyrlux

Ahhhh, I see. Well, I just need to find a training dagger so I can level DW faster and I'll be well on my way

clayandaudrey_ESO

I am using all medium 5 pc Hundings, 4 pc Ashen Grip, 5 Divines and 2 infused on the armor and precise on the daggers. Daggers have Weapon damage and befouled enchants. Jewelry is Robust Endurance with weapon damage enchants. I have 55 points in Stamina and 9 in Health. I use the thief Mundus.

Bar 1 is Surprise attack, Rapid Strikes, Resolving Vigor, Camo Hunter, Ambush and Ult is Flawless Dawnbreaker.

Bar2 is Killer Blade, Flying Blade, Razor Caltrops, Steel Tornado, Power Extraction and Ult is Soul Harvest.

In combat minor Savagery constantly procs so crit is at 97%.

This is my solo guy so I like the little bit of extra health. I find this an extremely fun build to play. Things pretty much melt. Regen is a little low but for I do it is not a real concern. Of course this is not the gear I wear to Cyrodiil.

I am sure I'll probably be told this is not optimal but like I said I find it a lot of fun.

Weapon damage in the screenshot is unbuffed.

that's 3200 weapon damage, not 3900 =P

Just edited to say that was unbuffed in the screenshot.

Zyrlux

Still, though lol. How did you buff it exactly? And divines ups the mundus stone effect right? I forget what infused does

clayandaudrey_ESO

Yes divines ups the stone and infused ups the enchant. Did those on head and chest to up the stamina the enchant gives.

Weapon damaged is buffed from the weapon enchant and power extraction.
