So I tried psiless 18 dex versatility chem pistol build. I know that chem pistol is garbage in final boss, should I learn energy weapons or melee feats in late game?

Nope, chem pistols can deal with anything provided you're using the right one (i.e. not using the acid one on mutants). Big T is no exception.

Died to a bear trap - didn't know they can crit so doesn't count.
Decided to kill a dog from random encounter - miscalculated their MP so doggy bites me, killed @. Twice.
Decided it does count, so deleted.

:negative: This non-crit chemical build only deal about 1.3k damage to Tchort, that's really awful...

Explain me Fragmented Chaos - has been told its bugged or doesn't work with Crit feat.
How it interact with Crit Power, do you need them both or rather one?

Died as chem pistol again, forgot that caltrops can't kill NPC (rigth?), casino robbbery went goofy.
Caltrops can kill, its just they deal such little damage that it's unlikely. If you want them to reliably kill NPCs they have to burrower poison and you have to abuse their AI to make them walk over it repeatedly.

When they left with 1 HP caltrops seemingly stop to damage them.

You will be fine, I beat him with a really crappy 10 perception chempistol build. Took a couple tries but it worked eventually. Chem pistol, and especially XAL can just freeze most of the tentacles lol. It doesnt make enough sound to lure tchortlings either.

Is Xal really that powerful if we don't count the downside? Or it was done for the memes?

What downside?, wear cau and acid res and you are taking no dmg from its kickback, you are dex so you will have escape artist anyways. You can even spec escape artist to give you 30mp when it roots you lol.

Its damage is decent, but its ap cost is what makes it shine.

Yo.
My shotgun @ died at rando dungeon at Save Private Newton facility - with small centry bots and I had vest to reduce their damage to zero.
How that happened you could ask - simple, I was tricked into beliving there are only small ones, while there was regular behind a column and I was like - I'll just withstand their tiny damage output.
The most shameful part of the story? few years ago my IM run ended exactly like this in that dungeon at same place, for the same reason and same reasoning... sad lmao.
RIP Slutty Shotty.
