Looking at this post:

Does anyone know if the crit bonus applies to Gauss and ERPPC?

[FupDup]

They count as "projectile" weapons, so I would assume such.

Increased crit chance for projectile and beam weapons: +14.5%

the 14.5% number is a placeholder, but yes, ballistic weapons get the crit bonus

I've only seen them write AC and Laser not Gauss and ERPPC.

[Mcgral18]

Though, the crit bonus isn't really worth much. Those weapons already 1 shot almost every component, AC20 aside.

Does the gauss with the bonus get 18 damage?


Otherwise, with the 15% of all crit damage returning to the IS, it's seems the returns are minimal instead of more ammo or heatsinks to handle the ERPPCs.

[Eglar]

it does. It's however not worth it on FDL pinpoint weapons. I'd rather have 1 ton of additional ammo or heatsink.
Lasers are a different story; each Lasershots applies multiple ticks of which each tick could crit,.

Use them with lasers
