Builds / Psy Assassin (aka Shinobi) viability check
« on: August 29, 2020, 03:07:05 am »Here's what I've come up with so far: https://underrail.info/build/?HgMQAwMDCggAJQDCoAAAwqA8JgA3WHoXU3XCoAAARg4AXSYxKylCBlwLKkshwoc8EADCs13ChcKt4p2NCuKijAPio7oC378
Features: Strong CC with AoE, 14 Knife attacks per turn for 3 turns, takes full advantage of serrated knives. 53% Crit. Chance (75% with consumables).
I'm considering replacing
Eviscerate, Taste for Blood, Vile Weaponry and Skinner
with:
Expertise, Expose Weakness, Three-Pointer and Fatal Throw
In which case the build would look like this: https://underrail.info/build/?HgMQAwMDCggAwqAAwqAAAMKgPCYAL1h6RE8AwqAAAEYAAEQmMStPAAZcCz5LIRIqwocpwrNRwoXinY0K4qKMA-KjugLfvw
Compared to the previous one it has higher base damage, lower crit. chance at 38% (60% with consumables), nice AoE damage from grenades (55% crit. chance unbuffed), extra AP from Fatal Throw.
Would either of these builds be viable at DOMINATING? Which one is better and what would you improve?

As for Cut-Throat and Brutality I realize they aren't particularly necessary in my case, besides, I have poor stealth and plenty of CC. I rather want those perks for RP reasons.
However, I'm not sure about the last 2 perks: Future Orientation and Mental Subversion. They seem to be rather useful in prolonged fights, but I'm not certain if I need them.
Is there any room for improvement?
