Which Is The Best Snipe Morph In 2022?

As things change patch by patch, this brings me to wondering if anyone knows the math on which morph is best

Lethal Arrow Arrow defiles (minor) opponent and grants poisoned status effect, & has around av 4% higher tooltip

Focused Aim gives minor breach and is 10% cheaper (ish)

Is one of these superior damage wise?

    Focused Aim for me. PvE only. The elephant in the room for me is range. More range = better morph and Focused Aim has 5m more range. Additionally, I think Lethal Arrow's Minor Defile is useless but I very much like Focused Aim's 10 second Minor Breach.

    Yeah defile seems to not be worth much a the moment and honestly I always go for range as well.

    There isn't really a morph that's always the best in all situations on all builds. It also depends on whether you're talking PvP or PvE.

    In a vaccuum Focused Aim deals more damage because it offers penetration which Lethal Arrow doesn't. But if you have sufficient penetration and other modifiers then Lethal Arrow can easily pull ahead.

    Do note that any physical damage can already apply minor breach through the sundered status effect and any other source of minor breach applied to the enemy immediately makes the Focused Aim morph obsolete.

    So unless you are stacking bonuses that only work on physical damage, Lethal Arrow is probably always the superior morph.

    I use Lethal Arrow because I use swamp raider and it synergizes well with that set. Great opener, hits for around 8-12k on a favored target (I also run Archer's Mind).
