Description

I suggest either Devil's Claw for it's parry/safety (and to help hold enemies in range of Stimm Supply's explosion) or the Bone Saw* for a good general melee (it has chem toxin on it to keep toxin stacks going on bosses & help you get your stimm back faster, and it can kill specials to get ammo back if you run out completely). Bone Saw is likely better overall.

Idk what blessings to run on Needle Pistol. Whatever you prefer I guess.

 

If you want to try this build in a slightly different way, you can:

•run this with only one node (attack speed) in the stimm lab (if you're ok with basically no stimm buffs for yourself or your team) to get more Stimm Supply bombs, or;

•run no stimm lab nodes. This means you get far fewer bombs, but you can use real/regular stimms with it, meaning you can use a Med stimm on your entire team for more healing, or use a full strength Combat stimm for more damage than the cartel stimm can reach etc.

 

Don't forget to use alternate mode/special fire on the Needle Pistol!

 

*Bone Saw would need Wrath/Shock & Awe for horde clear (maybe both), and Refined Lethality/Decimator for damage. Relentless Strikes is also good but very awkward to keep up.
