Loadout Guide

T51 + SBB + T11 on scout's armour (Improved Generator) makes the shield regenerate near-instantly. I have not seen another build on this site that uses this to basically farm Shockwave or Static Discharge. Personally, I find all the explosions quite fun. Phero groups bugs for CM to capitalize off of. As for perks, I strongly recommend having the berserker-vampire synergy to keep health up for enemies frozen from CMs.
