i do like hex eater but i wouldnt max it bc right now im a lvl 18 pistol with 2 point hex and i can take away all the voodoo of a lvl 38 mollusk (highest voodee user in game) in 5-6 shots

But what about the other ammo types? Or using the points for the skills that improve all the ammos (take aim/sharpshooter/eagle eye)? True, 5 pts in lead will do good damage but only if you don't see the word "Miss" and I watched a friend of mine miss 5 shots in a row against a giant crab. Had he been alone he would have woken up in a cell.

My $0.02, your mileage may vary.
