Loadout Guide

The Gunner that always has an answer.
Big Bertha Autocannon can dish out serous damage to crowds and single target. Huge damage for big threats and good accuracy to get longer range kills. Plus it practically ignores armor stripping it easily.
Coil Gun is capable of crowd control and status effects on a large scale. Extremely ammo efficient on bugs and is all around great. The Mole has almost no downside and is fun and rewarding to pull off.
Perks:                                                                Grenade: Fire     Passives - Born Ready, Thorns, and Resupplier     Actives - Iron Will and Dash


Alternatively enjoyable builds:

  • Neurotoxin Payload - 33322 Hands down the most ammo efficient weapon in the game.
  • With the combat mobility OC and 23221 - You take a huge hit to total damage but the AC immediately starts at max fire rate and gets the bonus in T5.
