Hothead

While you are at maximum Vitality, Hothead grants you an extra 10% critical chance and 10% more accuracy.

Hothead is a talent.

Overview

Hothead grants +10% critical chance and +10% accuracy while the character is at maximum vitality. The bonus is lost immediately when the character takes any damage and is restored when they return to full health.

Strategy

Hothead is a solid offensive talent. The +10% critical chance is significant – it stacks with Wits and gear bonuses, and is easy to maintain in practice because well-played characters should be behind armour or crowd-controlling enemies before being targeted.
The condition is straightforward to satisfy on the first turn of combat, when the character has taken no damage. Characters with high Wits who act early can take advantage of the bonus before enemies respond.
Hothead pairs well with  Savage Sortilege on caster builds, where the extra critical chance applies to magical spells.
A reasonable mid-priority pick after essential talents.
