Critical is stronger even if you dont land a critical hit.

I use head hit as my looping attack and through in crit strikes sometimes. Crit doesnt do a significant amount of extra damage unless you get a critical hit, and head hit seems to have a faster cool down.

critical hit can rock after you use armor break ....especially if u get a "critical . If i'm not mistaken though.... i think head hit costs a li'l less action

Doesn't head hit reduce target regeneration rates?

with the timeing of specials as the are i usually end up using both alternating between critical strike and head hit (during each others 'cooldown' period).... unless i'm watchign my action where i alternate between crit hit and the base melee hit (strike?)

slow motion button mashing for the win!

Critical strike takes an ungodly amount of action in comparison to head hit.

critical strike w/armor break is a real good combo and good dmg

i've noticed that the head hit sometimes consists of 3 hits and other times it is only 2 . what determines this ? the range ? or is it random ? i wonder if tha damage is any different . have to check next time

for best dps, you should alternate between the two, since other attacks cool down a lot quicker than the attack you just used.

I tend to alternate a bit, but for me the improved head hit is so much faster (dont know if Im the only one thinking this) almost as fast as I can hit twice (not exactly but almost) in the time it takes to do one critical. My action flies down though so I have to alternate some with melee strike or alike. The critical hit (if I dont land a critical with it) doesn't do muchmore damage for me than the imp. head hit (the difference is like 5-10 points, but I dont use a good weapon though, so this might me missleading numbers).

Have a nice one
