Which critical chance on my hybrid magnb will effect my gameplay. Also just to check as nb doesn't have passivs like temp or dk, is spell or weapon dmg better for hybrid?

* base stats, no rally, balorgs proc or pots used

    The higher of your crit chances will be used for calculations.

    The higher one is chosen, but ideally for nightblade you should build weapon critical over spell critical because of Nightblade Hemorrhage passive that grants passive crit.

    Hemorrhage
    Increases your Critical Damage by 10%. Dealing Critical Damage grants you and your group Minor Savagery, increasing your Weapon Critical rating by 1314 for 20 seconds


    Since NB naturally gets minor savagery via crit damage, it's more ideal to build into weapon crit as it's further boosted by this passive.

    Those base stats are completely achievable in pvp.

    Agreed with this.

    Either crit stat works the same overall, but nb has their Hemorrhage passive that buffs weapon crit so stick with that for the priority focus for crit stacking.

    It’s possible because Hemorrhage is proc’d. In reality, Exploitation (sorc minor prophecy) and this are the only ways to “build into” a specific type of crit, and being that it just takes your higher stat, it makes no difference.

    All three of those stats are achievable with basic sets, lover, and hunter or light slotted.

    How do you even build into one type of crit over the other? Aren't the class passives the only thing left that is specific?

    Buffs still exist. Major savagery pots vs Major prophecy potions can tip your max stat.

    So if you wanted to use cyrodiil potions for example, its more ideal to use the stamina ones that provide Major savagery for weapon critical over the magic ones.
