Military munitions DPS build

metalheadbeta

It may seem stereotypical, but I'm looking for a munitions DPS build fitting for a soldier or hitman. SMGs, rifles, launchers, pistols. Etc, etc.

There's many diff attacks you could combine, but I'd generally avoid certain combos due to potential redundancy (like SMG & LT, or AR + TGM). Also somewhat depends on the range you want to play in (pistols are closer range, but easier to use generally). Here's an example build:

Plays mostly w/in 50ft, though I gave you SR and Rocket for theme and for potential long-range options. Uses Frag Nade for the AP debuff, SMG for AoE and turtling w/ its shield adv, and TGM for single-target dps. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and Rec.

AR would be good to replace TGM, right?

You could, but if you wanted to play AR at >50ft, then you'll prob want a diff way to apply Armor Piercing, as Burst Shot and the grenade are limited to 50ft. Gatling Gun w/ the L2R adv can do that instead (as well as refresh Furious stacks you've built up via SMG).
