Maximizing Critical Hit Chance for Eldritch Blast

[909.Overdrive]

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a build that's just max crit chance for EB. So far my sources of Crit Chance are:
[roll] - [source]
20 - natural
19 - elixir of viciousness
18 - Sarevok's Horned Helmet
17 - The Dead Shot (bow)
16 - Champion Fighter
15 - Knife of the Undermountain King
14 - Spell Sniper
13 - Bloodthirst

Is there anything else I'm missing? On paper it's pretty sick. I'm also running Spellmight gloves just to make it more "if it hits, it crits." Thank you!

there's one way to achive -2 to crit range, you gain it right before final fight

(you have to become Bhaal leader)

the Shade-Slayer Cloak (while hiding)
Unseen Menace while the weapon is invisible, if you can offhand it.

Craterflesh gloves are best. Sarevok's vs Birthright - tough call.

You cannot offhand Unseen Menace, it takes both hands as it is a pike.

I actually pulled up that page to double check before posting! I'm forgoing the Shade-Slayer just because it's an expensive way to get the +1 (hiding takes a full action or a couple levels into rogue). I could be worth it for a different build for sure, but since I'm going fighter/caster I'm not sure it's totally worth it.

I may have killed too many/the wrong Bhaalists for that, but that's great to know for myDark Urgeplaythrough! Thank you!

actually I don't know how to precisely get this buff, but my steps were: talk to Orin, take the duel, kill her (you can interfere duel with companions, it won't change outcome)

ah right, from the icon I thought it'd be a dagger as well, thanks for the clarification

According to the Wiki, it's only available duringa Dark Urge playthrough. She didn't offer me a duel, I just killed her after a dialogue.
