STRATEGY

  • Always be on the lookout for High Value Targets like Acid Spitters, and quickly kill them with the M1000.
  • For more Tanky targets (Menaces, Goo Bombers), use a focused shot to stun them, and follow that up with a bunch of normal shots to finish them off.
  • For even more Tanky targets that are grounded (Oppressors, Praetorians, Wardens), use a Focused Shot or an IFG to electrocute them, then finish them off with the Zhukovs.

NOTES

  • Electrocuting Focus Shots on the M1000 allows you to basically always get the Electric Bullets bonus for the Zhukovs. Paired with IFGs for melting large, grounded enemies, this build specializes in Large Single Target removal and generally solid HVT removal.
  • Gas Recycling works quite well for swarm clear, allowing you to take the Weakpoint upgrades for the M1000.
  • This build struggles against Mactera Clouds. If you want to combat Mactera Clouds more effectively, bring Cryo Grenades or equip the Fear upgrade on the M1000.
  • This build is fantastic at killing Shellbacks, as a result of the Armor Breaking factor of Gas Recycling.

hope this helps :)
