Long Range Muni Build

kjames91

Hey there!

I ran this build in the PTS with about 300 into DEX and it ran well. Survivability wasn't great, but it ran well. Any thoughts?

It's not really long ranged, cause frag grenade and burst shot are limited to 50ft. Dex also doesn't scale up Concentration- in that build you'd prob want Ego as your main stat. If you want to make a long-ranged Muni build w/ AR (and maybe SR), then here's an example of one:

(not an early leveling build, ofc)

For single-target dps, it puts up 3x Furious w/ Rocket, puts up Armor Piercing w/ Gatling Gun, and then channels AR as its main attack while tapping Gatling Gun to refresh Furious and the AP debuff. AoE an be done from long range w/ Rocket and Gatling Gun. I also included SR if you wanted to attack from >100ft, and you can activate Mini Mines to give yourself another self-heal. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Rec and Dex.

Perfect. Thanks flow!

Does Furious ad that much to the dps? If I did a full maintain of gatlin gun for the AP and then used R3 Assault Rifle, I would be only losing about 10% from the Uncompromising with 3 furious stacks giving about 10% more than R3. And 3 stacks of furious gives +3% to crit chance right??

Yea, ideally it's about 10% more base dps over R3, plus Furious' crit chance (though you could also have 3x Furious w/o taking the Uncomp adv). You also don't necc need to fully maintain Gatling to get AP debuff up, but an earlier proc is chance-based. Either way, once AP is up, from there on just taping Gatling can refresh it (and w/ the LtR adv, taps also will refresh Furious stacks).
