Description
My 'Le opinion' has arrived. This build is for advanced sweatlord players to Hive Scum. If you're new to this class or taking it into a Havoc-40's, be prepared: this is hard to operate & does take a fk ton of practice to get down. It's actually pretty wild to me how almost nobody in 40's that I play with uses melee scum, which is obviously OP.
Note: Any blitz is totally fine with this... You could also go Alley Rat if you prefer the extra dodge distance. Also, you don't need the 25% Carapace Damage on this variant of the pistol because you shoot within 4-5 body shots to kill Crushers regardless... & at that point, you'd rather just have the reload speed after emptying clips. The reasoning for 2x Stamina is for the 6% attack speed, but you could go x2 17% Toughness & 1 Stamina to play it safe... etc. Two last things... 1. You could switch Extra Pouches for Coated Weaponry, depending on blitz & 2. Ranged with this doesn't matter too much because your Improvised Mk I Shivs are the highlight of this build; any ranged will do... (I just think the needle pistol is the best for boss DPS). Enjoy.
