Description

Build Goal: Mow everything down.

I made this Veteran build with one simple idea in mind: aim at the enemy and never stop shooting. No gimmicks, no constant weapon swapping — just pure, sustained gunfire that deletes hordes, elites, and anything dumb enough to stand in front of you.

This build leans hard into full-auto Recon Lasgun DPS, crit stacking, and burn procs, so the longer you’re shooting, the stronger it gets. Enemies melt, toughness stays topped up, and you barely need to think beyond target priority. If it moves, it dies.

For big armored threats, don’t overthink it — use your grenades. They’re there to crack Carapace targets and dangerous elites so you can get right back to holding the trigger.

Melee is mostly a backup. The Dueling Sword gives you mobility and clean single-target damage, but if you prefer more control and stagger, you can swap it out for a Shock Maul without changing how the build plays.

Playstyle:

  • Hold down the trigger
  • Aim for heads
  • Grenade armored targets
  • Everything falls over

If you want a Veteran that feels like a walking gun platform and rewards good aim over complicated setups, this build does exactly that.
