Well to be honest the only worthwhile melee crit build is one that uses a super cattle prod. Since most armors have little to no electricity resist, this makes it pretty epic on bypasses.
There are 3 good hth weapons for crit build, all three are different :
Louisville Slugger - it does KO on every crit but has no thrust attack mode so low damage against targets with high resistance and only 1 hex range so can get hexed easily, this is good 1v1 weapon (both pve and pvp) since with crit build you can easily keep target on ground permanently or support weapon in team but other than that its crap and rely on luck too much
And then other two :
Super Sledge(SS) vs Super Cattle Prod(SCP) :
- Their damage is very similar
- SCP deals electric damage which can be countered by tesla helmet if you aim eyes or head, SS deals normal damage type which cannot (situational)
- SS has 2 hexes range, SCP only 1 hex (+ for SS)
- SS does knockback on every crit (situational)
- SS attack cost one more AP then SCP (+ for SCP)
They are situational, try all three and use one which you like most
@op - Using SS or SCP is absolutely fine
