My Builds were not tested for Hazard 5/Elite Deep Dives.

Build description

This build specializes in both mobility and crowd control. This is my personal favorite out of my 5 Scout builds - It has the speed and damage any Scout would want to have. Your killing machine is your M1000 with extra armor breaking and blowthrough rounds, while your mobility comes from your Special Powder boomstick and grappling hook - If you find yourself dying to fall damage too much while using Special Powder, consider swapping Overcharged Winch for High Velocity Ejection System. I find this build to work the best on missions with bigger caves, like Point Extraction.

Perks

PASSIVE - Thorns, Deep Pockets, Born Ready ACTIVE - Heightened Senses, Field Medic/Beast Master (solo)
