Bullet Hell
Tier 1 C
The base spread of Bullet Hell is absolutely shocking. So to combat the 6x spread, just chop it down to a quarter the size. When I was first making the build, I decided to take Bullet Hell, totally forgetting that it completely destroys accuracy. That game kinda sucked in that my hit rate was just so terrible because my effective range was in the dumps.
Tier 2 B
Honestly both mods in this tier are entirely viable. I prefer damage for before going deep; 2400 bullets is quite a few, and then they hit a second time too from Bullet Hell.
Tier 3 C
Contextually, there's only two options. Either Penetration for being able to shoot through enemies into the floor for the bounce, or Armour Pierce for just taking on a slightly more supportive dynamic. I have a feeling Penetration is the correct modification here..
Tier 4 B
Another mod slot that seems like it's largely up to preference. I keep flipflopping between Variable Chamber Pressure and Lighter Barrel Assembly, I think T4A is most likely the better one for the dig, while T4B is better for the prelude.
Tier 5 C
Hot Bullets. Definitely Best in Slot for Deep Scan. I have a feeling Hot Bullets is just the BiS for Bullet Hell in general.

Again, I don't take note of what the "meta" for the peripherals are, but this is just what I take. Stronger Shields and Stronger Charge because, once more I've mathed it and it works out to be the better option:
- 30/6 + 7.5 = 12.5s
- 30/3 + 4.5 = 14.5s
When regenerating any more than 18 points of shield health, the faster regen is the more efficient option, and that's a little over half the shield:
- n/6 + 7.5 = 2n/6 + 4.5 | (-4.5, -n/6)
n/6 - n/6+ 7.5 - 4.5 =2n/6- n/6 + 4.5 - 4.5
- 3 = n/6 | (x6)
- 18 = n
Take Shockwave for Swarmers. Scout's truest bane, anything to mitigate swarmers reaving you on repeat. And yes, that's another reason to take Cryo Bolts over another OC.
Pickaxe
Very standard... I think, at least for me. Again, I don't pay attention to what's meta, I just really like the shorter power charge time compared with the other options.
