Little finding i made ( probably already known)
Let me start out saying im a hybrid HR and I was discussing in another thread about favouring melee or ranged crit chance depending on how much/how u were really utilizing each stance. Basically I was arguing (with myself mostly i must admit) about the feating regarding archery and combat feat trees which ratio in feat points between correcting aim and bleeding precision would be better, which probably a math freak would be better at solving.
So it was Basically either getting a better crit rate for split shot/rain of arrows spamming or getting a better chance at criting with melee burst aka fox shift. ( which btw the more i think about hindering strike for the dungeon crawling part of the dungeon the more i like it coz it basically hits as hard as any one fox strike but doesnt have a target limit and applies strong grasping roots, so its pretty **** nice paired with a sing)
So i went into preview and started doing some respecs to test things out. While i was testing correcting aim i thought about split the sky because that one never crits and might help abuse correcting aim a little further.
and voila, it procs correcting aim. So that skill besides its usual usefullness... paired with correcting aim is a crit chance generator!
So now i know im gona take correcting aim to 5/5 and everytime i need to ensure crits with some burst i know i just need to cast split the sky and within a few seconds i know i will have some stupidly high crit chance for it.

CA is t3 bleeding precision is t4.
I can get CA to 5/5 (buff both stances crit) and then choose how do i want to distribute the points into damage buff feats (snipers aim and lethal hunter)

I like the idea from a PvE standing, especially if you combine it with sing and hindering or RoA, but how would you make it work in PvP? I mean nobody's going to just stand there and let you build up crit chance, so you have to have a way around it. I've been chewing on this for a couple hours now and I'm thinking it would almost have to be straight PvE combo only
Obsidian Oath - Warlock
A whole lot of other Obsidian toons as well.
what if they hybrid HR too? since we can control range and melee easily.
I never said anything along the lines of he was "wrong", a little bit of reading comprehension goes a long way you know.
By doing that You lose a capstone, deflection and run speed and what you gain by doing this nowhere near as valuable imo.
Yes im thinking from a pve standpoint, it could be situationally usefull in pvp but i dont really like split the sky and specially throw caution for pvp ... well i really dont like pvp since mod 2 came out, im pve specced and its disgustingly hard to get a good match and i always end up frustrated.
Well honestly im running with the melee capstone rightnow, wont respec till i finish off farming the glory i need, and i really dont find it too good for pve, at least till it takes the bows weapon damage into consideration. I very situationally use melee atwills, like there being a big bunch of adds bunched up where i can bypass splitshots 5 target cap, and then a 1/6 chance to do 500 extra damage on the encounters doesnt seem to be better than getting better damage from my ranged stance.
As for deflection/runspeed... i barely pvp so i really dont care about those, id rather have more dps for pve (black arrow and bloodthirsty). Im really not a fan of deflection stacking for pve as its insconsistent im more of a defense/ls stacker ( i run with 31% dr and near 10% ls)
