Note:
Driller build that's specced into tons of AoE damage Neurotoxin Grenade is optional, I just put it here because the idea of slowing enemies by like 90% or more is hilarious
EPC Upgrades:
Completely flexible depending on what you prefer, this build has the EPC specced for normal use and mining Alternatively can spec into fire in T5 with the same build to set your goo on fire with normal shots)
Pros
- Decently ammo efficient
- Amazing at CC due to being able to leave giant puddles to slow down enemies, Persistent Plasma further slows enemy around the plasma that it leaves behind on Charged Shots
- Can combine tons of DoTs for insane damage
- Can slow enemies down to a crawl with or without Neurotoxins
- If specced with Fire Damage instead of Thin Containment field: can set the giant puddles on fire to deal massive damage
Cons
- Not as strong on single target damage but not too bad either
