* After a single upgrade to Crit Damage is received from a [[Charge Shrine]] or the [[Chaos Tome]], this tome provides more average damage per upgrade than the [[Damage Tome]]. This is true even if the upgrade is only Common rarity. Damage Tome will only outperform if your build relies heavily upon Bloodmark or Poison.

Despite [[Bush]] +1% Crit Damage per level scaling this is still true when playing them due to how Crits are calculated.

How to unlock Default (available at start)

Effect Increases critical strike chance and unlocks the ability to Overcrit at high values.

The Precision Tome boosts your chance to deal critical hits in Megabonk. At high levels, it can even allow Overcrits, which are stronger versions of critical strikes. This makes it a core Tome for damage-focused builds.

Overview

  • Stat: Crit Chance
  • Base upgrade per level: +7%
  • Max level: 99
  • Unlock: Default

Effects

  • Increases the chance for your attacks to deal critical damage.
  • Crit chance does not cap at 100% and any Crit Chance beyond this will allow the attack to roll for crit damage an additional time. For example 600% Crit Chance will make an attack roll a crit 6 times, resulting in 6x the damage of a normal crit.

Strategy Tips

  • A strong offensive Tome for all weapons except Poison Flask. Poison Flask does the majority of its damage through Poison which cannot roll Crits. Bloodmark similarly scales off of your Damage multiplier and cannot crit.
  • Precision Tome heavily outperforms the Damage Tome for nearly everything early on but becomes less and less powerful comparatively as you gain Crit Chance from other sources such as Charge Shrines, Chaos Tome, Items, or individual weapon upgrades. Despite Bush +1% Crit Damage per level scaling this is still true when playing them due to how Crits are calculated. If you are intending to go for high score runs the Damage Tome is the better option long term unless the majority of your weapons cannot gain Crit Chance from levels.

Notes

  • Considered one of the strongest scaling Tomes for DPS.
  • Early investment can snowball runs by boosting damage output quickly.
