Gatzinger II a Dual Pistols Build

rhymere

Making a sort of Sentai style pistol build and need a second opinion on it, and suggestions would do including how to "tech it up" a bit. Not sure on the frag grenade, if there's any other debuffs that would be better for a sentai please let me know:

Frag is the best source of the AP debuff for it, but you could use something else (like Burst Shot). I'm not really sold on Breakaway Shot, since it's a forced movement ability w/ a long animation (at least Parting Shot can be turned into a threat wipe, but you already have Evasive for that). Most of the rest of the build is pretty decent, though.

Lately I've taken a liking to using Shotgun Blast (Mind the Uniform, Armor Piercing) for applying AP. Also lays on fear, which makes taking Boogey Man for Bullet Hail worth it.

Yea, Shotgun is a good alternative. I was assuming he wanted a pistol power, but there's other options for AP out there.

I'm a little late, but hey.

I'm not sure what a "Sentai" is but if you want to "Tech it up" then I'd suggest something like this: Holdout Shot for the quick heal & bit of damage. TC as your Passive/Energy Shield as your block (or can even use Laser Deflection.

I've gone for Particle Smash, while it is at Merle Range, it's a decent for a another quick heal and knock down and you did want more tech like powers. Two Gun Mojo IMO is much stronger here and I gave you a Decent AoE, Lead Tempest. Firey Embrace for your self-res, as I assume you want to keep that.

Resruge/Conviction and Conce as the powers you already have and will need. I also removed R2 from your other TP, as it's a waste of points. I'd go for maybe Rank 3 in your Shield or Resruge, or even Rank Holdout Shot.

I also kept in Frag for the AP Buff.

Only your powers have been changed, the rest are still the same


Edit: And remember, you can (I think) change the color to your powers and have skins for weapons, to make it more "Tech" like if you wish, you can even make the Frag "Green" for a "Plasma" type of effect.

Burst Shot also works, if you wish to stick to pistols and IIRC, has no cooldown.


Overall, I just wish we'd have the Gadgeteering Rework already, we already have a Sidekick that "Has" new Gadgeteering Powers
