Description

Since Kraxton doesn't have the same Havoc build as Canary does, I felt he needed a variant on the 'survivalist Plasma Gun' set up, because it is rather fun getting 2 bullets per kill, and it's nice just having such a power house weapon feel so good to use. 

To that end, I decided to shuffle a few points around, and make it a weapon specialist build! and why not use the Munitions Shovel for old times sake? It's still got it, it's still got Decimator, it's still got Skull Crusher (or Uncanny Strikes, if one's so inclined). it still knocks things over and slaps everything around. And it's so much fun to do so with super high attack speed. So, that's what I built, just barely having enough points to still get the Ammo increase, as you run around bonking everything to death, pot shotting with the plasma for attack speed, or just going to town with the bonus fire rate and blasting everything away with blaze away and shattering impact.

It's a very nice build, made better with Shout as always and frags for even more spacing if needed for reloads, it does everything you want, with the only sadness being no Superiority Complex. But, it's well worth it, at least to me.
