Armor Piercing Vs Critical Damage / Loki Stealth Charge Attack

[Unibot 712]

Title says it. If I go stealth - I got crits. Since charge attack already ignore armor - will I benefit from armor pierce mod ?

Does it adds flat damage ? Or I better go with crit damage increase ? I use cleaving charge attacks with dual skana.

Both cap at 90%

Use both? But if it has to be one or the other, go for AP.

Does it add flat damage ? Or it reduce armor mitigation ? It is very important cuz charge attacks already mitigate all target armor.

Also does critical damage mods affect charge attack critical damage ? Melee damage mods(flat +7%) don't, only charge specific mods(+25% charge damage) do

Does charge crit ? The number on my screen are too smal and fast to notice..

And I can't use both, not enough power, I'be maxing charge attack, charge speed and fire/frost damage

And I do NOT use normal melee attacks. Only charged.

Armor piercing is an element.

Critical Mods affect all criticals.

I think the answer you're looking for is that when you charge your attacks, will you both crit and does adding charge damage increase that even further. The answer is yes. When you're invis, you will crit the charge damage...so with scindo, thats 200, then add whatever charge dmg % mods u got, then crit that...It could be so nasty!

Unfortunatly, crit damage has no effect on charge damage.

For charge attacks, Crit dmg is x2 by default. You can't change that.

But you can add as much elemental damage as you want can :p
