Description

The stim for auric or below you should drop the two attack speed augments, otherwise itll be dicey whether you can get to 4 stacks of stims, but once you get there its impossible to go below 4 for all ever again.

Bolt pistol and shredder autopistol are good alternatives to dualies for there high stagger, but the dualies simply have great breakpoints, fire rate and ammo economy. They and your blackouts are for trappers, flamers. etc.

You can remove splash damage as its "technically" inconsistent as mixed horde clear, but it combined with pocket nades can one tap a whole group of ragers.

Tac axe can have its unyielding damage swapped to Maniac if you struggle into ragers and tanky mutants on higher difficulties.

This unlike the shivs is a light spam weapon, especially with your stim active, heavy only to build a hyperviolence stack or into crushers.

The rending node on ult helps crusher breakpoints ALOT but this build is already point hungry.
