I believe Moonbeam will crit from hide. That doesn't make the 7+ second cast time any less forgivable, though.
Use Chain on an enemy that has a lot of hp left so it won't kill him; that way the chain can jump to other enemies. If you kill the enemy with Chain induction it won't jump. Or you can use it when fighting single targets as it has a good damage/activation.

Moonbeam DEFINITELY crits from Hide. And yes, the cast time is ri-friggin-diculous in a very bad way. Dark Blast has superior DPS capabilities... hence my latest respec.
But whichever of the two you choose to take, Soul Storm is the shizzle.

Chain induction: I don't know if this was fixed, but there used to be a bug in the power that causes it to not chain the attack if a proc was slotted into it. Other than that, you should mostly aim it at an enemy with plenty of health who is close to other enemies. Keeping them packed will net more chains, but less prediction as to where the chain will go.
Moonbeam: Yes. It does crit, but you'll get much better DPS out of Dark Blast. I actually made it part of a sustained attack chain (replacing shadow punch) on my Dark/Nin Stalker.
They did fix the Chain Induction Proc thing... at least, the patch notes said they did, and I didn't see any posting suggesting it wasn't really fixed.
