Stimm Lab

Description

Divider

This build has been working pretty well for me in Auric Expeditions. The stimm setup allows restoring 79% toughness every 42 seconds in addition to full toughness restore from Rampage!, which helps you stay topped off against ranged damage and/or when outside coherency. Maxed Out Chems is more useful than going for a full stimm lab branch due to the lower average enemy density in this mode. The knife has up to 95% crit chance when all buffs are active.

 

Needle pistol is pretty efficient at taking out all specialists/elites and DPSing bosses; it can kill most targets in 1 shot, reapers in 2 shots, and crushers in 3 shots (although you'll want to shoot priority targets 1-2 extra times so they die faster). Against bosses, open by shooting them with 4 needles and then you'll be able to maintain max toxin stacks through Coated Weaponry. I choose the Branx MkVI Needle Pistol over the Branx MKII Needle Pistol for extra toxin stacks on weakspot/crit hits. Pickpocket doesn't feel necessary because you can buy full ammo at the Sanctuary for 10 salvage.
