Forum:Does Finesse stack with Luck higher than 5?

In other words, does the total critical chance from finesse and luck combined max out at 10% or 15%? Is there any way to test this in-game? Onchei 23:23, 20 January 2009 (UTC).


 * Yes, it stacks. To be very specific all critical chance bonuses in the game stack and are multiplied by the Critical Percent Multiplier (crit%mult). You can reach 18% base with ten Luck(10%), Finesse(5%), Survival Guru(3%). The only bonus percent factor in Fallout 3 that doesn't stack is the default VATS bonus of +15% for taking targeted shots. This bonus is applied after the fact. However it should be noted that it makes a big difference, with 18% base and a sniper rifle/deathclaw gauntlet you'll get 18x5=90% crits in real-time, in vats you'd reach 100% (well, obviously you'd reach 105% but you can't critical more often than all-of-the-time now can you). Hope that helps ;) [[Image:Ash_Nuke.jpg]] AshRandom (Talk) 23:40, 20 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Note: Weapons with a x0 Crit%Mult never critical, not inside of vats, real time, or even while sneaking. [[Image:Ash_Nuke.jpg]] AshRandom (Talk) 23:44, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
