    What even is BiS? I've seen a lot of people arguing over tenacity builds, crit builds, or a mix of SS/DET builds.

    Right now I'm running heavy tenacity with DH melds on the left for progression, and it's worked fine for me, but my other PLD tank hits close to my DPS numbers due to being pentamelded and more crit-det oriented

    according to xeno, it's full crit, which makes the genji pants not bis in his view. he argues dps gained from those big crit FCs override any dps lost when compared to other builds.

    This can be true if you're speedrunning, since it's basically killing something over and over again while optimizing strategies. In the end when the strategy has been optimized enough, the additional dps gain from further optimization is marginal, and it all comes down to rng (card draws, procs, crit/dh rate during burst phases). The shorter the fight is, the more bad/good rng affects your kill time.
