Description
Maybe my favorite build in the entire game outside of Havoc.
The Mk 5 Ripper. Before the heavy stubbers existed, this was Ogryn's most viable sniping tool. Actually, it still is! Best gun in the game and I'll fight anyone who disagrees. It has a small spread even while hipfiring (so there's no need to brace) and it has a high minimum pellet count. This means that even if just 1 pellet connects to a target, the shot does most of the damage of a full blast. The only downside to the Mk5 is its recoil, but that's easily mitigated. You can aim downwards to compensate when you mag dump, otherwise QQ cancel to reset said recoil. Roll one with 66% ammo for a "hack" in which Blaze Away stacks per shot instead of two. This helps reach certain breakpoints. Thanks to the logic behind the various "10% of magazine" blessings, 1.9 (10% of 19) rounds downs to 1. A 66% ammo modifier is the highest you can roll for a mag size of 19 or less.
You can use PBB somewhat liberally against monstrosities and human-sized elite packs. I would probably skip Dominate if I wasn't also taking Light 'em Up
The Branx pickaxe doesn't need much support from the left side of the tree, but Frenzied Blows sure helps. Horde combo is initiated by push attack into heavy->light on repeat.
