God no, wtf I don't even know how people get these awful builds. You have the mandatory serration + heavy caliber + shred + vile acceleration. That leaves 4 slots for all 4 +90% elements. If you replace 2 slots with point strike and vital sense, you lose almost half of the damage you would have with 4 elements (or lose 180/460 = 39%) and gain a whopping....15% extra crit chance and 2.4x extra crit damage. So 15% of the time you get a total 4.4x damage and 10% of the time you get a total 2.4x damage while losing 40% of what you originally had...so roughly 15% of the time you'll get about 300% dps boost, 10% you'll get 33% boost and the other 75% you'll lose 40% dps. This amounts to getting 88.3% of the dps you'd get from just 4 elements, not to mention that if you use even one mod slot for something that isn't a 90% element, even a 60% element for status chance, this difference becomes larger and the crit build gets worse.
