Offense up vs critical damage which is better?

When it comes to mods which is better offense or critical damage? I know there are limitations regarding leadership skills and other abilities but which is more effective for attack class characters?

  • Kind of depends on the character's abilities? like R2 should get offense but most others go critical damage
  • CD if you have a reasonable CC is almost always a better option. You can always sneak some offense secondaries and primaries in with a CD set. Just keep in mind that every non-crit or low damage crit is going to hurt you against characters such as GK, zBarriss and Rex. Have to maintain a decent CC on a CD reliant toon.

    Yes indeed.. for example chars like leia, lando, sabine, han solo, ig's.. they all have build in crit chance boost. Leia with crit chance buff, others have in their unique. Better pack them with full 216% crit damage mods.

    For offence mods, i think it's better to put to chars that have big number of offence, and can produce their own offence buff/have build in offence. Advantage of offence mod is u don't need to worry about crit immune buff from enemy.
  • Nihlus really benifits from offense mods and like @RacerDejak says lots of rebs self buff there crit chance so crit dmg is preferable for them...

    Theres no definitive answer to your question, but there is to individual heros... so in particular which heros are you refering to?
  • There was a post stating that with around 40-45% crit.chance or below is better offense and above that is better crit damage
