Description

Something of a work-in-progress build, and more themed than trying to be a meta build. Instead of being druggie scum, this is for a hive ganger who considers themselves a professional killer for profit. They may have some loyalty to a particular gang, but instead of being just another maniac with a gun, they consider themselves a professional killer. They are polite, efficient, and have a plan to kill anyone they meet.

The general gameplay idea is that you use your pistols as your primary ranged weapon, using the Trickster special ability to nail priority targets at range. Your pistols are even deadlier at close ranges, something only enhanced by Terrifying Barrage and Powderburn. Your shivs are your backup weapon, coming out when the enemies are too close to let you reload and when Desperado is on cooldown. Your stimm is your oh-shit button, giving you half your toughness back immediately, making you tougher, and enhancing your toughness regen.
