Loadout Guide
The playstyle I use with this build against Dreads is firing once or twice with the Sludge (normals or occasionally a charge) to deal damage and apply Corrosion, switch to the Wave Cooker and tapfire a bit to apply Densification Ray and fish for Neuro/Blister procs, then switch back to the Sludge and repeat.
Outside of fighting Dreads, normals will oneshot Grunts (after the 2s of Corrosion) and twoshot Slashers (rarely if fired as quick as possible, more reliably if spaced a bit apart to get an extra 0.5s or more of Corrosion, otherwise just 2-3 ticks from the Wave Cooker (or like anything else) will guarantee it).
