Unique Fun Builds!
Murder Effects is an amazing high damage build that spams status effects just by shooting enemies. Due to the built in status effects this works perfectly with Ongoing Directive gear set to constantly refill ammo. You do not need status effects skills with this build, use whatever skills you want. Great for solo or team, I run it with all 5 directives and it does very well, truly unlimited ammo. I just upgraded my crafted chest and backpack to prototype doing the new daily projects and dust storm event for exotic components.
6 Red Cores Build
The chest and backpack are unicorn pieces, meaning they had chc and chd rolled as attributes so we could roll the core to red weapon damage or whatever we want. Made the “Reconstructed Caches” at crafting bench that dropped the blueprints for “The Courier and Cherished” using retaliation resources. Then a marathon of crafting began until the perfect ones popped out, around 40 craft rolls each piece is best guess. Go run some Retaliations for named gear blueprints, they can drop from the kill squares or by crafting the Reconstructed Caches like so did.
With Pestilence as the main weapon you have “Plague of The Outcasts” doing excellent damage over time with status effects damage on top. Then due to having an all red core build it’s capable of over a million damage per tick and up front burst damage that is pretty good with high crit stats. Usually a status effect build is not based around shooting but this one is. It has so much utility, probably even more than I am using it for.
Tip, do a headshot right before reloading to blind enemies, they will be blind for quite a bit allowing you to reload and then burst them safely. Timing with this build makes it better, works well with Rogue Agents and Hunters.
I may add video of build in use soon.
