precision talent question

[Exadus]

Ok so I dont have the shooting range to test this and dont have time to play atm getting rdy for work but wanted to know for the precision talent to work do you have to have pulse as an active skill?? Or will it just give u the dmg buff from headshots. Basically I dont want have pulse as an active skill so if I dont have pulse equiped will it still give me the base dmg increases or do I need to have pulse as one of my skills for this to work.

I will check this, as I am about to load up.

But if you are a lower level, I would use Pulse, especially the one that helps u locate items/boxes around the pulsed area if you are new to this game and don't know the map well. Especially when running around PVE Story as a Solo

Thanks so much I just dont wanna waste a talent on a skill that isnt giving me an benfit at all. As I switched to it from another one I was using cant remember what one atm.

Well I have the perk that once u finish all the side missions and such and shows all that stuff I am lvl 15 about 10 kills away from 16 lol.. I use healing station with the skill cooldown increase and switch between the healing shot and smart cover for dmg depending on situation as in the DZ/story missions/side missions.

I know the map pretty well I have acouple zones completely unlocked with all the collectiables in some. I dont rush threw the game I take my time so collecting everything n such lol.

Yeah I run with a AR/Sniper always. I have a great AR right now with a base dmg of over 1k and an m44 I think with like 4-5k about. I have alil over 10k dps right now with about 8.5k hp

I just want to know if precision increase without having pulse as a skill equiped if it does work without pulse equiped thats def a talent I will always be using lol.

As far as i can tell, i doesn't, at least not if you don't have pulse in use.

Don't trust in dps too much. Get a snip with a fire rate just high enogh so you can trigger it... as fast as you are able to hit heads, the rest should go to head/crit/dmg or accuracy (when it comes to mods).
Also Repo Reaper and One is None are top! I am barely using my secondary weapon since i got them.

Yeah I just tested precision on mobs and than check my character stats real fast does do anything but even when I have pulse equiped it doesnt do anything guys ill have to wait for firing range to really test. But it kinda seems like I am criting more but idk hard to tell my base crit is only at 5% and 7% with my AR cuz of the perk it has on it

i belive the buff only comes from activating the pulse itself, as you see the info popping up on screen and.... it would be kinda too top if it would apply automatically with precission

Pulse in general (not ability) will just mark the target. There's gear that boost to pulse, like crit chance.

Ok so I tested this you do NOT need pulse equiped to get the +crit/+crit dmg from the precision buff. It just pulses the target ofc and no seeing threw walls with it but u do get the dmg boost from it and thats all I wanted.

Wait whaat? What makes you belive it grants the crit buff?

[Exadus]

shooting range... I tested without the talent and with it and with it my crit dmg increasd and my crit rate was way more higher. I test 100 shots without it and with it. the 100 without it I barely crited at all and but with the talent I crited alot more like atleast 20% more and my crits did over 3k more dmg than without the talent. So yeah I can say it works without having pulse as an active skill.
