Description
Hey all. This is a build I've been experimenting with because I really like the idea of the Aquila being fairly useful in expeditions compared to normal maps.
The general idea of the build is to allow the user to stay highly mobile with sprinting efficiency while keeping the strength of Arbites when it comes to mobbing and supporting the team by locking down hordes with shock mines.
The other support element comes to using your Aquila reactively when a teammate goes down to essentially get an instant rez on them via the extra revive speed from your curios and the Aquila itself. Not only does it give them a significant boost when they go to stand back up but it also provides a safety blanket of toughness damage reduction for them when they're back on their feet while making it easier to eliminate whatever they had been taken down by if it happens to be a ranged special since the Aquila provides a lot of stability to ranged firepower.
The extra cool down reduction from gaining 20 stacks of Terminus Warrant via the Obstinate modifier allows you to not worry about your downtime on the Aquila so you're free to use it proactively and reactively since it's so easy to gain stacks of it again by spraying into a horde with the Shredder SMG and Terminal Decree allows you to dump +20% toughness to yourself and your team at any given moment which could be extremely useful to your Hive Scum buddies.
The melee weapon of choice is more so personal preference but I like the standard shock maul for the stun special attack to cancel crushers out of overhead animations if you notice a teammate about to be slammed.
You could also probably swap in March in place of Target Neutralized if you find the movement speed more handy in reaching out of the way teammates that are downed, as with your Aquila and revive speed curios (a whopping 54% extra revive speed! Or 66% if you decide to take a shield melee in place of gunner damage resist) you'll be picking them up and peeling for them in no time at all. Target Neutralized is just the more greedy choice for your own personal toughness.
Anyways I hope you enjoy the build and thanks for taking the time to check it out.
