Description
Blackout Blitz
Free grenade generation, instant stagger and toxin from POCKET TOXIN what's not to love? This blitz has great synergy and gives us a very handy cc on demand button, a conga line of maulers will never be a problem again.
Anarchist/Gunslinger Improved
Both Auras work great, pick which one you like more, or which one your team could make better use of.
Pickpocket
Keeps you stocked up on syringes for your needle pistol, with smart use you will never run out. Do not be afraid to use it, it has great damage for both elites with yellow mode, and great horde clearing potential in a pinch with blue mode.
Stimm Lab
Each and every one of crit builds will love you, and it also gives you a great power in melee thanks to COATED WEAPONRY which helps us stack toxin on enemies much faster, if you play with a static group that does not utilizes crit at all swapping VULTOPRENE for FURY may be a bit more effective in the grand scheme of things.
Another option is going for a quality style point distribution, sacrificing two last nodes on the damage tree in order to gain 9 points that can be spent on combination of SPURS II/III and BARRAGE II/III stimms, sacrificng 8% strength and 15% crit chance is not half bad when we consider that we can get something like 12% attack speed, -30% stamina cost, 8% reduced damage taken in turn.
Weapons
Melee is mostly set in stone when it comes to stats, perks and blessings, Needle pistol has a lot more wiggle room as none of them really have an impact, it's mostly a matter of preference, just make sure to have 80% in ammo and you should be set, reload is a smart perk to take as faster reload equals more darts shot out faster, and that seems to have the biggest impact.
Curios
Curios allow for a lot of wiggle room too, experimenting with what feels right is the way to go, some people may prefer to have a bit more toughness or hp, just make sure to keep combat ability cd, giving out crate to yourself and your team mates as often as possible is a priority.
