Description

Divider

This build is primarily focused on Crits

Take note of:
1.) Dodge as you slice your way through the horde for more crits (Float like a butterfly talent node)
2.) Hounds and Trappers can easily kill you if you fail to dodge and kill them

3.) You're tankier the more enemies you hit, more when you crit and hit weak spots

3.5) Still Do NOT tank all the hits, utilize your dodges more than taking hits, Maulers and Crushers still hurt a lot

4.) Your dodges have 50% more distance, be careful not to fall off ledges

Weapons:
1.) Shivs: primary weapon for killing almost everything
2.) Dual Stub Pistols: For killing bursters (replace this with any gun to your liking) 

2.5.) Needle Pistol: a good substitute, especially for killing Carapace Armored enemies

3.) Boom Bringer RPG: Primarily used on monstrosities, you can also use this to clear hordes in a pinch
