A1R3appraiser1SR3 vs A2R2apraiser1SR3

Between these builds, should archer 2 or ranger 3 be taken? I feel that as the game progresses the 150 crit rate from Swift Step will decrease in relative value, whereas the 5% bonus damage from Steady Aim will not.
My reasoning for not getting both archer 2 and ranger 3 is to make room for appraiser, whose Overestimate gives +3 enhancement to offhand weapon. Like Steady Aim, this too should continue to scale as the game progresses. Therefore I am leaning toward not getting archer 2 and instead getting ranger 3. However, most builds I see use archer 2 instead of ranger 3. Is Swift Step’s 150 crit rate that good or are people just building for the short term? I would greatly appreciate insight into this dilemma.

It all comes down to your gears imo. If you think you can get 700+ crit rate without swift step then don’t get archer 1. Moreover, if you think you can get a very good upgrade on your pistol then don’t get appraiser. My personal build is A2R2App1SR3 and i would say that i am satisfied with it. i can get 750 crit rate with decent gears and even if i can’t get a +16 pistol, there’s overestimate to help me. I don’t think the 5% increase in Steady Aim is worth it as it has only a very low uptime compared to Swift Step and/or Overestimate. You might suffer from lack of AoE spells so you might want to consider what you want to do with your SR first.
