To many NPCs that have helmets or weak points that need to be broken to play a pure headshot setup. This kind of build setup is just like the new Ongoing Directive, when it works it’s amazing, soon as you hit one mechanical NPC you are using a nerf gun and not a good one. I would say these kinds of builds are more group oriented where you can take advantage of the strengths and let others take care of the stuff you are weak against.

There are ways around that. Stacking headhunter on other npcs or the achiles pulse being the obvious ones. It really depends on how you play and if you can/ want to do that.

crit is a game of dice, headshot beer pong

watching these reminds me of Marco's vids from Div 1 way back when lol, keep up the good work dude

It is indeed. Sadly, I am abhorrent at aiming so I do not use it enough.

Adam Ragusea: Why I head my crit shots and don't crit my head shots

So if I am really skilled I should roll crit chance and headshot dmg (for open world/where headshot works)?

I mean, give it a go...see if you like it.

Wait what? How does the MDR have 95% headshot damage? I put it on with no headshot mods and it says 80% (1k SHD included). Was it nerfed, or is it some hidden thing the MDR has? AR's have 75%

Hey Dod, I know this is an old video, so I'll probably copy paste , but this topic gets me thinking about the eagle bearer as it's in theory the big daddy "headshot AR". I really enjoy my headhunter/ dodge city build and I tend to run it with 1886 or white death, and regulus. Sometimes I get bored and use the mantis or another exotic sniper rifle, but let's say I want to use a D-50 as my fuck off button pistol, and let's say I want to dust off the EB...since you're really good at breaking things down, maybe you could put together a video on how to optimally use, mitigate, and manage the tenacity buff. Setting aside the dumbness of the EB lacking a scope, the main reason I don't use it more often is that tenacity always deletes me on a DPS build.

So crit dmg and headshot dmg is additive when hitting crit headshots, yes? So, wouldn't it make more sense just to stack crit chance and headshot damage for a headhunter and skip crit damage altogether since they're basically the same stat for heads? Also, I see a lot of debate on crit vs headshot using Dead Edict. What do you think? Personally, I feel like headshot damage is still the way to go with the rifle, especially considering weapon handling benefits that rifle a ton, but I also see crit appealing. I feel like with crit you're just losing out on a lot of damage unless they don't have heads. Even 200% crit damage averages out to a 120% increase in damage when you factor in a max of 60% to crit.

Correct. Though going Crit Chance Head shot is a bit redundant. For Best crit, you need Crit Damage, for Head shot, you need to actually hit the head. Head shot is skill, Crit is RNG. For Dread Edict, go Crit. In order to get the max out of that weapons, you need to fire it at maximum RPM. Otherwise you may as well go with White Death, Mantis or Nemesis. Build it for Crit with Pristine Example, and the weapons itself takes care fo the rest.

@@DodRegnbue Thanks I'll give this a shot when I have a stronger build for it. In my testing with my limited crit damage, it was only hitting for around 4 million per bullet. I guess that isn't too bad considering that's 3 headshots for an elite in Heroic, but getting it to the 2-shot kill would be really strong for that gun, I think.

Every time I run my sniper build that's all headshot damage, I get swarmed by hyena rushers who have ballistic helmets then I'm screwed because I have no crit damage on my secondary lol. Chungus, warhounds, and servers are another reason why this build sits in my stash unless I have a good team

Use Mantis...If you have few headshots under you can kill rushers and robodogs with one bodyshot with Mantis. There's just no reason to use any other sniper rifle than Mantis or for few occation white death, white death has 137% headshot dmg ... But Mantis build, spec allnto headshot dmg and have at least 1.1-1.2 mil armour and you're good to go, Mantis has best average dmg output and its fast and accurate and also very long range weapon

I thought this wouldve been a vodeo about headhsot vs crit. But its actually a video about crit vs regulus headshot build. lmao

Geez, these hidden values... (headshot by weapon). Very informative vid but proof that the developers aren't too upfront about how things work.

I mean, they are not really that hidden. Just look at your stats while you have a crit build equipped. You will notice you will have an interesting about of HSD. The value will change with different weapons.

@@DodRegnbue Yes, I mean the ordinary guy like me wouldn't really compare all the before and afters. So thanks for this. This is also related to my question on named weapons in that we ASSUME they are are just same as the base with perfect talents but what if the developers put some nuances in the named versions...(No, I'm not asking you to test). The Lefty is proof of this, they can actually say it's a named ACS-12 but it comes out a Six12 model, with ACS rpm/mag and Six12 damage lol

Headshot vs crit...why not both?
