cloak / mr sandman / ninja perk chain

[Bopper the Whopper]

I'm doing a build based around the Deliverer and I'm using these perks to enhance my sneak attacks. The wiki says that since I got the Cloak and Dagger perk first, in order to get the highest multiplier I need to get Mr Sandman 3 and then Ninja 3. I just got sandman 3, so I just need the 3 ninja perks now, but my criticals are only doing 3.0x damage, and I think they should be doing 3.4x ... can anybody who's gone for this perk chain speak to that?

On my recent playthrough, that I am still playing now, I got the perks in this order:-

Deacons Cloak and Dagger.. then Mister Sandam 3.. then Ninja 3.

I am doing x4.8 dam with a sneak attack.

I can not remember what I was doing when I just had Cloak and Dagger and Sandman 3 though.

There is a bug in Ninja perk, which prevents it from stacking properly with other sneak attack bonuses. This is fixed in Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch.

Related changes:

• Levels 1 & 2 of the Ninja perk did not properly account for 2-handed melee weapons. (Bug #19667)
  
  
• Bonuses from the Ninja perk do not stack properly with other perks that also grant sneak attack bonuses. (Bug #19677)
