Description
This build revolves around having a lot of stamina and maintaining stealth through crits as much as possible. Behind the Lines allows you to stealth behind groups of shotguns/gunners, backstab, suppress the rest, and tear apart the group. You will have stealth back off cooldown after this.
Stunstorm grenades allow you to destroy large hordes in small spaces if needed.
Use revolver for flamers/trappers/bombers.
Weave in dodges for some damage reduction and don't forget to pause and block every once in a while to reset your dodge counter.
Light attacks into hordes are very fast and will help reduce the cooldown of stealth when you are hitting crits.
We are sacrificing a lot of toughness and resilience for mobility, so stay aware of your surroundings and dodge/block as much as possible to avoid damage. You need to move in and out of stealth while positioning to avoid gunners. You will almost never run out of stamina with this build so keep moving, running, dodging, and sliding.
