Description

Divider

You'll spend ~75% of your time with the Needle Gun focusing on monstrosities (always keep 30 stacks up!), specialists and elites. Bring out the Bone Saw for captains and hordes.

Once you're comfortable with the build, start swaping posion modes on both weapons as needed.

Booby Trap is optional. Even though the explosion often doesn't hit anything it can turn a close fight with its strong stagger. It's not a win-harder talent, but an emergency talent that can save your ass. Feel free to replace it with something else if you want.

I chose a maxed out stim over a lower cooldown (thus no Practiced Deployment) - I want a super strong buff when I really need it rather than a weak buff constantly. I picked buffs that help ranged & melee damage, but you take whatever you like. 

You can swap Wrath (horde clear) for Relentless Strikes (boss damage) on the Chirurgeon's Mk IV Bone Saw.

Curios are your personal preference.
