Munitions DPS build

metalheadbeta

I set up a build here that I wanted to try. Basically trying to get as many different Munitions weapons, and focus on Armor Piercing. Just want to know how viable this build could be, if anything needs to be changed or what have you.

If anything does need to be changed, the only real thing I want to try and keep is the weapon variety. As many different weapons as I can feasibly use for the build, it's part of a theme I'm wanting to work off of.

Alright, well the build currently lacks a block enhancer, so I'd prob swap the AO (LNL) for that. In light of using many weapons w/ AR, I'd consider optimizing its single-target dmg in longer fights w/ its Uncomp adv, and you can use some of the other attacks (SMG, Rocket, Shotgun) to help manage it. Here's an example edit of the build:

For single-targets, SMG and/or Rocket can build up 3x stacks of Furious, while taps of Shotgun can refresh 3x Furious and apply/refresh the AP debuff, and AR is your main attack otherwise. For AoE, you have many different options, depending a bit on your range (Gatling and Rocket for long-range, Shotgun and SMG for up-close). Sniper Rifle is also an option for an opener and/or its very long range. You could also trade the dmg shield adv on SMG for R3, if desired. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Rec and Dex.
