The Headhunter

Introduction

Author: Gaven

The gameplay on this build focuses on landing headshots (weak points damages) and staying at a reasonnable range to get the effects of your armor and amulet.

Assault Rifle : It's your main weapon to clean trash mobs and hit alot. With Hunter's Mark and SoW on, you'll hit really hard on mobs, insane damages if you hit the head. With the accuracy of the weapon and your traits, it becomes a great weapon capable to clean mobs at a pretty good range.

Hunting Pistol : This is your BOSS / Elite DPS weapon. Again you'll want to have both mods on. Aim for the weak spot and enjoy some insane damages and shred those boss.

Equipment

  • Long Gun: Assault Rifle
  • Hand Gun: Hunting Pistol
  • Melee Weapon: Voice of the Tempest (Anything fits)
  • Weapon Mod 1: Hunter's Mark
  • Weapon Mod 2: Song of Swords
  • Armor: Hunter Set
  • Amulet: Gunslinger's Charm
  • Ring: Braided Thorns or Devouring Loop
  • Ring: Hunter's Band

Traits

  • Exploiter
  • Spirit
  • Quick Hands
  • Handling
  • Executioner
  • Kingslayer
  • Mind's Eye
  • Trigger Happy
  • Sleight of Hand

 

Devastation

Introduction

Author: EvilAngel

 

Equipment

High DPS + Mobbing

Introduction

Author: HumtY (May 2020)

Gameplay: You want to dodge roll as minimum as possible as the armour is either medium or heavy encumbered. That said, with swiftness maxxed out, you can practically just run around dodging every shot. If you think it's too heavy for your style, you can replace the chest piece with the slayer set chest piece. Ricochet rifle works wonders with mobbing while also getting some bosses. Devastator on the whole just works for any situation. It applies bleeding and shoots 5 arrows. With the devouring loop or empowering loop, the weapon just melts everything in front of it. Be sure to aim down enemy weakspots for maximum damage.

Equipment

Immortal Summoner

Introduction

Author: EvilAngel

With this build you will struggle to die with permanent Skulls killing everything around you and healing you insane amounts while you chill in the back. The Seeker mod deals excellent damage and will charge fast with the Cultist set and high fire rate weapons. Enjoy Face-Tanking the game :)

Equipment

Critical Hit + One Shot

Introduction

Author : MisterVale (Inspired by SlyGumbi)

 Almost 700 Dmg without critical hit, almost 1500 Dmg on critical hit. Up to 5000 Dmg when hitting weak spot + critical hit. According to "SlyGumbi", this build works in nightmare mode.

A Crit Build with auto weapons for endgame without the need of DLCs

Equipment

Easy Mode

Introduction

This is a DOT reliant crit build that is meant for boss melting that benefits from using crit chance/damage and fire rate/reload consumables. First, hit the boss with fan of knives to activate polished whetstone, then switch to beam rifle and use swarm. STAND STILL to activate Mantis ring and unload your beam rifle. Once Swarm is over, reload beam rifle and switch back to machine pistol then repeat. While this build relies on DOT bleed damage for its full potential, it is still plenty powerful and practical for general mob clearing without changing a thing.

Support (Buffs & Heals)

Introduction


A Co-Op build to sustain and boost a carry boss-killer friend

This build is very much geared towards having a carry like a Crit Build that may have difficulty in dealing with large groups or would just do better with focusing on raw damage rather than concerning themselves with healing; it is very much a co-op build.

Knowing a boss phase where they're active and targetable for a good little while, or just any elite enemy, you can pop your Song of Swords and Howler's Immunity mods and a Dragon Heart, immediately handing out a massive damage boost and damage reduction, and providing a heal.You will rotate your weapons while dealing with additional enemies, or just helping to damage the boss, just focusing on getting your mods ready hopefully by the time they're down. If able, you can charge them off of melee and if things get real dicey you make use of the Voice of the Tempest's charge attack to help deal with large groups of minor enemies.

You will always be checking health bars to pop Dragon Hearts for your allies, so they can focus damage (also helpful if your friend is gearing a build, they can save some Simulacrums for upgrades).

Equipment

Base Supporting

If your carry is not struggling to survive with your heals, you can use Ruin instead - you will primarily use the SMG then, and will have Song of the Swords ready more.

If you can't keep up with your carry well enough, use Heart of the Wolf.

Variant: Pushing Trash

Outside of boss areas, or if the team is just grinding re-rolls, this build variant can be used instead. Ideal with a tank pulling agro effectively. This is more focused on keeping mods available as that's a little bit tougher with just random enemies

You still focus on healing and buffing, but now drop Song of Swords right before you use Storm Caller to overall focus more on crowd control.

  • Long Gun: Beam Rifle (more sustained fire)
  • Hand Gun: Submachine Gun
  • Melee Weapon: Voice of the Tempest
  • Weapon Mod 1: Song of Swords
  • Weapon Mod 2Storm Caller (crowd killer)
  • Armor: Elder body, Labyrinth Set for other pieces (increase Storm Caller damage)
  • Amulet: Mender's Charm
  • Ring: Gift of the Iskal (to help keep mods up between fights)
  • Ring: Spirit Stone (more Storm Caller damage; to keep mods up) or keep Volatile Gem

Traits

 

 

Mostly ordered by priority, top list is more important. After these you should focus traits for survivability like Vigor, Guardian's Blessing, and Mother's Blessing.

 

Vulcan's Destroyer

Introduction

This build revolves around using explosives to layer on damage, as well as status effects. Primarily, we're relying on Vulcan's Detonator and the Demolitionist Trait to increase the damage of our explosions, and mixing elemental damages and status effects to suit the zone that we're in. It can be a very strong mob clearing build, but can struggle against some more mobile bosses, but I have found it to be very lethal to almost every enemy and my teammates.

Author: PyroV

 

Equipment

Boss weapon options for your Long Gun include Particle Accelator, Eye of the Tempest, and Sporebloom, though I fully recommend to use a non-boss weapon so you can mix your elemental damages. Defensive options for Weapon Mods are Rift Walker and Blink Token, both of which have their explosions enhanced by Vulcan's Detonator, and the latter can trigger Overcharge, causing a second explosion on the target.
Labyrinth Set gives guaranteed damage boost and decent defense, while Elder Set grants a damage bonus to all allies while being significantly lighter. World Breaker's heavy attack counts as an explosion, gaining benefit from your amulet, but Voice of the Tempest offers a faster option, and it being able to trigger Overcharge gives you your explosive damage as well.

The Undying King

Introduction

Ever wanted a tanky build, but didn't want to have to rely on supports to heal you when they could be dealing with the boss instead? Well this is the build for you!

This build leans on the shoulder of leeching the melee damage you deal, while also being able to resist most damage so you wont lose much while swinging for the fences in the midst of dozens of enemies. It can be a struggle to use against airborne enemies or bosses, and even groups of enemies can put you on your knees (depending on the area), but with minimal opponents and your usual buffs this can make the game a breeze on higher difficulties.

I am still going through a few playthroughs of the game and tweaking this build as I go. If anything else could make this better, then please let me know, I could have missed a useful trait.

                            Doggo with maxed Invoker and Triage will heal you for roughly 45 points and do an average of 450 damage per attack. With Labyrinth set, almost 70 points of healing, and around 670 damage per attack. Can use either seed caller for more passive healing, or menders aura to face tank any attack

                              Armor: All 3 pieces of leto’s

                              Amulet: twisted idol

                              Rings: Alchemists jewel, subject dlc needed for this ring, and aggressors bane for that 15% damage reduction.

                              Long guns: it doesn’t really matter but I would recommend having flicker cloak on your primary.

                              Handguns: it doesn’t matter what gun you use but if you want to be literally immoral for about 10 seconds use storm caller on your handgun. All for that sweet 50% damage reduction while active.

                              Barkskin 20, Mother’s blessing 20, keepers blessing 20, guardian’s blessing 20, triage 20, vigor 20, gluttony 20.

                              Also, for this build to be fully completed you need divine nectar on for that 10 armor effectiveness. And if everything is maxed and on you should have about 1,080 armor effectiveness. And yes you can take any hit in the game, as long as it’s not an instant kill grab, on lower difficulties. On normal mode with this build you take almost no damage at all and you can just use bloodworts to out heal the damage. And if you have 2 other friends you get team work for that extra 10% resistance. So the amount of resistances you should have in total would be leto’s 50%+agressors bane 15%+ teamwork’s 10% + mother’s blessing/guardians blessing 10%+ storm callers 50%= you ain’t dying. Plus if you want to know the viability of this in apocalypse mode, I’ve beaten every boss with this build on every difficulty and you can take a good amount of hits in apocalypse mode before going down.

                                20 Vigor, 20 Warrior, 20 Triage, 20 Bark Skin, 20 All Blessings, 20 Switfness (you can close in faster for ranged targets), 20 Shadow Walker (close the distance much better), 20 Rapid Strike, 20 catalyst, 20 Arcane Strike, 20 Vaccine (for that pesky Rot), 20 Tormentor (you might be forced to dip in and out of melee range sometimes *cough* Harrow *cough*), 20 Spirit

                                This is one is a poor man's version of the Sabertooth build (courtesy of Fextralife), except it's a non-DLC version and I'm too sure if it works on Nightmare and Apocalypse, but it does on Hard and Normal well enough and it relies on Corrosion isntead on Bleeding to get them healz.

                                              • Summoner?

                                                Warlord's passive let you consume Hearts infinitely. Elder's passive gives buffs to your summons after consuming hearts. Cultist gives you passive regen of mod and +mod duration. Lastly Twisted The passive doesn't stack with summons (AFAIK) but the health regen can also help negate the life drain from warlord. So you can spam Hearts to buff your summons while your summons are lifestealing for you.

                                                      If Elder Knowledge is at the top, it's because you get it from the start of the game and it pays for itself very quickly.
                                                      You are free in the choice of weapons and Mods. Personally, I like to play with Devastator and Magnum (Iron Sentinel mod), but it works whatever your choice.

                                                        There is no something new, i just provide some minor changes which make life more comfortable.
                                                        Great toughness and life-leech all the time. Main story + DLC Apocalypse

                                                        Armor: Leto's Armor set
                                                        Long Gun: "Ricochet Gun" (with this you can save 2d mod space to anything else, Devastator is not panacea)
                                                        Hand Gun: "Machine Pistol" (the best combination of damage, accuracy and range)
                                                        Mod1: "Fan of Knives"
                                                        Mod2: anything what do you want (i use "Swarm" to more dps)
                                                        Melee: anything what do you want

                                                        Amulet: "Razorwire Necklace"
                                                        Ring1: "Alchemist Jewel"
                                                        Ring2: "Bloodletter's Insignia"

                                                        Core traits: "Spirit", "Catalyst", "Tormentor", "Triage", and ofc any survivalistic traits are also welcome, than more than better.

                                                        Conclusions and tips:
                                                        1. The main feature of the build is unity of toughness of "Leto's Armor"+"Alchemist Jewel" and OP life-leech of "Razor Wire Necklace"+"Triage". Just use "Fan of Knives" as often as you can and it's help to over-heal most of attacks in one moment.
                                                        2. "Ricochet gun" give us lot of power and you will using Fan of Knives much often than with Devastator. The second profit of Ricochet is enemy's action interruption, and this is very important. The third is auto-aim, you can shoot to any surface in front of enemy and you never miss(and get your power)
                                                        3. "Nightmare" and "Apocalypse". Im lazy ass and i don't want to learn boss rotation or dodge hits any time, i use Consumables and i can catch strikes with my face: "Mudtooth's" Tonic(+25HP for HOUR), "Pristine Essence"(+15% to all resists and reduce status effect build up Last 3 min), any +30% target element resist(Hydro Coolant, Oilskin Tonic, HeavyWater Elixir, GreenLeaf, Ethernal Orb, Spiceroot). In total you get 65% of resist. Damnt it, use consumables its awesome. Better than fall down like your teammates.
                                                        4. You can save dragon shards to revive your unlucky teammates.

                                                              best setup is all letos armour maxed out, devouring loop, bark skin, twisted idol, that new ring that adds 30 percent armour effectivness, This pushes your armour to over 1000+ and you never die, with devouring loop best weapon is fusion rifle, or for starters use beam rifle and get tons of crits while being a tank at same time. I can play solo on hard and nightmare and never die anymore. Setup is overkill on Normal where u can blast a few bosses dead before they even reach you.

The highest damage i hit was a crit with the Particle's mod that dealt around 12k-13k. Hope this helps someone or someone can improve on it. Thanks!

                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                    It's an old build. You need to realize things change or get nerfed. Storm amulet used to gice 15% damage to all weapons or elements or added shock damage to non shock weapons and give 15% shock damage. I forget. But I do know it made sense in builds then.

                                                                    • Anonymous

The trick is to proc the 3 stacks of bleed with Skewer mod and refre***** with a charged melee from the Scar.

                                                                              LongGun - Crossbow or Sniper Rifle

                                                                              Crossbow or Sniper make up for your low crit chance and will kill trash with a single crit or headshot, you will generate enough mod power to ca fan of knives every 3 shots, (2 if the enemy is bleeding). You can also recast Swarm after 4-6 shots with the sawed off. Swarm takes care of hordes and melts bosses, fan of knives does 4500 bleed damage over its duration and provides extremely fast healing and survivability. The build is quite enjoyable and doesn't rely on the devastator like so many of the other builds. It trivializes most content with its high damage and sustain, with the only real threat being one shot kill moves or super combos on nightmare or apocalyptic.

                                                                              Traits - All ranged damage traits except Rapid Fire, all mod damage/duration/generation traits, Swiftness, Vigor, Endurance

                                                                                    This is tanky team build where you have a lot of damage resistance but cant dodge.If you need to avoid damage either run or outheal it. Team members are somewhat required as its not efficient on killing people but its really effective all around.

                                                                                    Long gun: Shotgun (Dont really matter but you will mostly be close range)
                                                                                    Handgun: SMG

                                                                                    Weapon mod 2: Howler's Immunity
                                                                                    Armour set: Leto's Armor set
                                                                                    Amulet: Mender's Charm
                                                                                    Ring: Aggressor's Bane
                                                                                    Ring: Ezlan's Band (This ring is recomended however you can change it around to suit your style)
                                                                                    Other recommended rings: Bright steel ring, Guardians ring, Mothers ring (whatever reduces damage)

                                                                                    Trick is to take all agro and damage while your team can easily clean up. If there are too many enemies you might get overwhelmed but other than that you can pretty much tank anything on hard/nightmare difficulties. I use menders charm to increase the effectiveness of my dragon's heart so when I heal my whole team gets value out of it but leto's amulet or something for your style will work too

Repeatedly flop onto bosses (using the World Walker trait to drain less stamina) for insane melt. Rapid strike and Hard Charger combined allow you to embody the 'master' part and dish out 1k damage punches at a ridiculous speed. For more chance of survival during melee it is recommended to max out a few defense traits such as Vigor and Barkskin. To add more maneuverability, do the same for the Endurance and Swiftness traits. Enjoy this absurdly powerful build while it lasts, it may get nerfed.

The damage is pretty good due to the armour amulets and rings alone make you do an additional 35% ranged dps and mind`s eyes bring it to roughly 50%( i am saying roughly since i am currently at 50.6 without mind`s eye fully maxed out yet it is at 14 at the moment). With all that in mind you alreading doing more dps and the storm amulet makes the eye of the storm stronger since the weapon deals shock damage with every shot and the mod is shock based attack. Song of the sword`s mod finishes this set off with more damage since with the guardian`s axe you can gain the mod power back and the voice of the tempest if you want just straight up more melee dps since its shock based as well
                                                                                          If you want a little help on the field u can sacrifice the song of swords and use curse of the jungle gods for the tentacle assistance and the tentacles do shock dps as well as give hp back in return.
                                                                                          All in all i love this build it looks cool and i get to be thor with guns

Vigor 20 Endurance 10 Spirit 10 Mothers blessing 10 More is better but not necessary on normal. Then you can do whatever you like just keep few trait points and upgrade weapons only on world bosses if you have problems. I got to King level 3 and to Ixxilis at level 5. Upgraded to 8 and both were a cake walk. Game at certain points pushes for upgrade by giving you a weapon or armor 1 level up from your current top item. Upgrade evenly. all or nothing.

With the books yes it makes it easy to really to just upgrade all traits. Once they are all acquired, just play what you feel comfortable with. Rely on your skill as the player to really destroy your enemies.

That's 5 free levels + whatever experience you get for simply making it to the first true boss room.
