+6 Direct Damage
+72 Max Ammo
x0.2 Acquire Lock Threshold, x2 Lock-On Range
+1.3° Acquire Lock Threshold, x1.5 Lose Lock Threshold
+10m Lock-On Range
+20% Damage to Electrified Targets and +20% Damage to Burning Targets
Lock-On now prioritizes low health enemies, and will only place as many Locks on an enemy as are required to kill it.
+3 Penetrations
x0.85 Lock-On Time
+6 Max Number of Lock-Ons
Targets with 3 or more Locks are Electrocuted by the first Locked-On bullet that damages them. The Electrocute DoT does 12 Electric-element Damage per Second, slows enemies by 80%, and lasts for 3 seconds.
Full Lock adds 20% more Direct Damage to all shots fired during the burst.
Every time you release a Lock-On burst, the last bullet fired emits an aura of Fear to all enemies near you. For every bullet fired during the Lock-On burst, add 0.15 Fear to the aura (ranges from 30% Base Fear Chance at 1 Lock to 375% Base Fear Chance at 24 Locks). The aura's radius starts at 2.4m and each bullet fired during the Lock-On burst increases it by +0.15m (ranges from 2.55m at 1 Lock to 6m at 24 Locks).

After 0.2 seconds of arming time, any grenade that passes within 2m of an enemy will detonate after a 0.1 second delay. After being armed, grenades will emit a green light. Grenades no longer explode upon impacting terrain, but instead automatically self-detonate 3.3 seconds after being fired or when they stop moving. Additionally, x1.1 AoE Radius.
+60 Direct Damage to any target directly impacted by a grenade.
Changes the PGL to add the player's current velocity to the grenades being fired, instead of using a flat velocity for every grenade.

Loadout Guide

Notice

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

Build description

This build is all about explosions, explosions, and, of course, explosions. The LOK-1 with Explosive Chemical Rounds is a great choice for crowds - but so is the PGL with Fat Boy. Stun has been chosen as the tier 4 upgrade to keep the bigger bugs longer in the radiation. Use this loadout with caution, may cause severe friendly fire. Personally i use this loadout for Escort Duties exclusively, but feel free to use it in any other missions. (Outside of Eliminations, i suppose.)
