Critochet

Critochet

Class	Weapon Mod

Critochet is a Power weapon mod that makes ricochets land critical hits more often. Power weapons can bounce bullets off hard surfaces into enemies. Critochet adds Crit Chance to every bullet that hits after a bounce. It suits a build that uses Power weapons and the cyberware that makes them ricochet more. Critochet is available from the early game, since weapon vendors can stock its lower tiers.

Effect

Critochet works only on a bullet that has already ricocheted. The bounced bullet gains extra Crit Chance when it strikes an enemy.

The bonus is +10% Crit Chance at Tier 1. It grows by 5% per tier and reaches +30% at Tier 5. The value of the mod depends on how many of V's bullets ricochet.

How to Get Critochet Guide

Check weapon vendors, which sell lower tiers.
With Phantom Liberty, open airdrops in Dogtown for higher tiers.
Combine a matching pair at the crafting menu to raise its tier.

Upgrades

Critochet comes in Tiers 1 to 5. A matching pair of the same mod and tier can be combined at the crafting menu into one copy a tier higher. A mod can only go on a weapon of the same tier or higher. Once installed in a weapon, the mod stays in that weapon.

Character Builds

Critochet belongs on a Power weapon. The Ballistic Coprocessor is Hands cyberware that raises the ricochet chance of Power weapons. It also shows a preview of where a ricochet will travel. Higher tiers of the Ballistic Coprocessor add ricochet damage as well. The coprocessor is attuned to Technical Ability, and each point adds a little ricochet damage.

Muzzle brakes can also help. The RC-7 Varkolak raises Ricochet Chance, adds an extra ricochet and widens the ricochet angle. More ricochets give Critochet more bullets to boost.

Notes

Firecracker is the Iconic Power weapon mod crafted from the Active Chimera Core. It makes a Power weapon shoot explosive rounds.
