This was my fav assault rifle vet build. I works around deadshot that consumes your stamina, but compensate the recoil of the Columnus. Every point is crucial here.The combination of "confirmed kill" and "iron will" will get you a lot tougher. If you do a elite or special kill you regenerating toughness very reliably duo to confirmed kill, iron will reduced the toughness dmg taken when you are over 75% toughness. This protects you form the hit you don't see coming or gives you time to counter fire without getting gunned down in a second. The 10% toughness dmg reduction point over focus fire keystone is important too. The offense on the other hand is a build up with various points, beginning with deadshot. This will consume your stamina fast, but you have +6 stamina duo to your curious and the two talent points in stamina delay reduction -0.25sec. Onslaught is important too, because it will break the armour of your enemy fast for everyone in your team with 16 stacks of 2,5% brittleness. - Don't always run, spare your stamina. - Hip shot all non dangerous, close enemies and spare your aim iron sight (consumes stamina) for the important targets- If pressure gets too high use a frag grenade but try to save at least one grenade for a res. To be clear: This is not the strongest vet build atm. but it is super fast, aggressive and fun.
