Description
Overview
The Gungryn Shotgunner is a DPS specialist build that focuses on dealing massive amounts of damage quickly, as well as taking out bigger enemies like enemy Ogryn as well as Monstrosities the fastest.
Weapons
For this setup up, we need the Kickback and Folding Shovel, as not only are they great options on their own, they also compliment each other nicely.
The Kickback is great at dealing MASSIVE damage, and is the main Focal Point of the build, and deals excellent damage to Unyielding and Maniacs, making it great for a one shot on a rager swarm, or to deal massive damage to monstrosities, but lack in damage against armor, specifically Carapace.
It's perks play to it's natural strengths while the blessings are meant to both increase its already massive damage when under the effect of PBB, as well as increased accuracy and range by reducing spread.
The Shovel has fantastic crowd control and horde clear, due to its higher than most light attack damage and fantastic heavy attack damage, as well as it's Penetration stat making it specifically tuned toward anti-armor, covering the Carapace weakness on Kickback, while also being able to hold its own against enemy Ogyrn, especially Crushers.
It's perks lean into the Penetration stat, while the blessings help with Horde-clear and weakening armor.
Talent Tree
The build forgoes any real damage reduction in favor of pure DPS, trying to maximize the damage on both weapons and making mobility and strategy, your keys to survival.
Save for some DoT, all DPS relevant perks were taken to optimal damage output, as well as a focus on decreasing Combat Ability cooldown, to help in situations with multiple monstrosities at once.
Bombs Away! acts as a utility to help cover revives of teammates, as well as stagger a crowd for obj coverage.
Point-Blank Barrage is the monstrosities deleter, you activate this to go full DPS with your Kickback.
Burst Limiter Override acts as both an add-on to PBB, but also reduces the cooldown time, and is essential alongside Bruiser.
Gameplay
Use cover and avoid being stuck in the open, as you are much squisher than other Ogryn builds, and need to play smarter or you will go down more often.
