I am making a high-crit build. Will Feytouched enchantment do anything for me in pvm?

    Feytouched is a great debuffer in PVP, though it will stifle damage in PVE. I'm not sure what PVM is?

    Edit: I'm unclear if or how much Feytouched debuffs in PVE, but on test runs I've seen damage declines of at least 10%'

    PVE also known as PVM (Player Versus Monster).

    Rimuru?

    Fey can get very close to Vorpal if you become a monster, take this example:

    Player severity: 75%(base) + 5%(Half-orc) + 15% feats + 27% companions + 2% Icewind Survivor Skill boon + 6% Dragon fury boon (assuming you take 1 for ls, wich you should) + 15% from SH boon + 10% wild storm elixir + 5% squash soup +7.5% superior flask of Potency + 5% adorable pocket pet = 172,5%

    The increase of vorpal at a 100% critic rate, with a 100 hit:

    Regular hit: Base.
    Critic: Base * 172,5% -> 100 * 3,13 = 345.
    With P.vorpal: Base * (172,5% + 50%) -> 100*4,13 = 445.

    The increase of T.Fey at a 100% critic rate, with a 100 hit:

    Regular hit: Base + (Base*0.18);
    Critic: [Base + (Base*0.18)]* 3,45 = 407.

    Difference between them: (445/407)*100 = 109%, so vorpal is 9% better but Fey also debuffs targets damage by 18% damage, so both are very nice, but vorpal will always be better.

    Ofc this is teory, i doubt that anyone in the game as managed to reach this value of critic severity (exept HR's with squirmisher's gambit feats ^^).

    Edit: Forgot SH boon.
    I would appreciate you to not read my signature, now that you did, dont do it again.
