looking for level 50 and up builds

[burntheworld27]

getting back into the game, super happy with how theyve been improving the experience. just looking for some general build ideas. if youd like, post yours here so i can start to figure it out. unfortunately while leveling to 50 i took a year break and completely forgot what i was doing. my perk cards are all over the place right now. but any recommendations, weapons i should build around, or just sharing your own personal build are greatly appreciated!

You need several builds in this game; no one build can do it all. You need sneak build for sniping, heavy-gunner build for hordes, boss builds for bosses, team builds for teams, melee build for "resilient" enemies, etc., and (many) others as your needs arise.

At level 50, you can have maybe 1 or 2 builds, because you haven't gained enough perk points yet. You can only equip 56 points worth of perk cards at a time. So to make a build, you need to use about 50 points to get new perk cards or upgrade them. At level 50, you have gained about 85 perk points total, barely enough for 2 builds. And if you don't have any or enough unused perk points, then you are stuck with the perk cards you have and have no way to make new builds until you level up and get more perk points. This is why people level up and up and up, so they can have more and more builds at their disposal.

Hi, I have been helped a great deal by this thread on here.

Making proper perk card builds?

Search for it. I don't know how to link it here.
Outside of here there are these I have found.

Commando's a good all-around build, but you might want to look at the weapons you have and build around that, if you have a good legendary. I went heavy for a while because I picked up a AA/E gatling that was better than anything else in my arsenal.
