Description

Divider

This build will let you live your most depraved pyromaniac fantasies. You do not want to play this build with restraint, it is geared to a playstyle of reckless abandon. As the name suggests you want to be flying as close to the sun as possible. In this case, as close to 100% perils as much as you can when using the purgatus staff. 

 

Fundamentals 

 

This build works off the purgatus staff having such a high rate of fire over a very long time, this gives you a very large amount of crits even without getting every perk and ability to increase the chance. That being said the other benefits of this build is a very high recharge on venting shriek, this allows you to function, in the right circumstances, above 50% perils constantly. Obviously this is an insane thing to want to do and that's where the fun of this build comes into it's own as well as an interesting interaction between the purgatus staff and perils really make this strategy not only viable but allows you to dish out a surprising amount of damage. 

 

 

Burning Bright

 

This build works best if you're happy to get a little silly with it. Higher perils means higher crit chance and higher damage and this little detail is made much more useful in combination with the purgatus staff. Due to how the staff works you can charge up the secondary fire at 100% perils fire away until the meter is empty and then and only then, will you explode or be forced to venting shriek. This interaction gives you an entire two full charges of the secondary fire at around 100% perils and full benefits of warp rider warp nexus and all the abilities based on crits like mettle and perfect timing. 

 

Warp charges

 

This build wouldn't be complete without mentioning the lifeblood of this process, that being the warp charges. These lovely little things decrease your Ability cool down a decent amount and with six of them stacked you get half your ability cooldown immediately. This combined with your curios means you're almost always ready to vent when you need to and you will need to a lot. 

 

Final notes

 

This build is hardly the most op or meta but it is a lot of fun and is just good enough to deal with damnation and has some success in auric but that's more on my end if I'm being perfectly honest. If you're looking for a fun build that makes you feel like pyromaniac, I'd recommend you give it a go and I hope you all enjoy.
