OP Builds
Pyromaniac Scarlett with rank 5 ethereal wielding SMGs is by far one of the most insane builds I've seen so far. Capable of screen clearing extremely quickly once you get pyro and electro mage. 10 seconds of infinite ammo and maxed out fire rate. Anyone else have a favorite?

I had a build that was the shotgun and it could clear the room pretty easily - it was just the shotgun ahving a high reload rate

Could you please give me some tips regarding building Scarlett with the Flame Cannon? I fail every time lol

Runes: Alacrity, Elemental Barrage, Glass Cannon, Etheral, Vigilance, Elemental Shield, Blessing, Growth

Upgrades: full lightning tree, full freeze tree (you can skip the upgrade that shoots crystals when reloading, but the game might kinda force you to get it before you can get Shatter), first 3 uprades of pyro tree (can also get the capstone skill if you want but it's only necessary if you're getting hit), Double Shot tree, fire rate bonuses, reload speed bonuses (only need Kill Clip honestly, but you have to invest in the reload speed tree to get there), bullet speed bonuses (increases the Flame Cannon's reach), Blazing Speed, Run & Gun. Piercing and bounce are also good. If the game gets too stingy with which upgrades it offers, some bullet damage upgrades can help, just don't prioritize them over other upgrades. Glare can also help if you get the upgrade that makes on-hit effects proc when Glare procs.

Synergies: both elemental synergies

Tomes: Book of Elements (priority), Tome of Rage (second priority). If you don't get one of these, then Tome of Speed helps you give some extra speed to move around as needed. 4th option would be Tome of Elasticity. Otherwise Tome of Power can help make up for the loss of bullet damage from synergies, upgrades and other tomes, but comes at the cost of fire rate.

EDIT: I forgot to mention character upgrades. It depends on luck on which one you're gonna get, but you really want to get the one that gives Scarlett increased fire rate each time she procs burn on an enemy. When Ethereal activates, this is going to give you 10 seconds of insanely high fire rate without having to reload at all.

I'm also removing the optional suggestion of Death Rounds, it's really not needed. Even with the low bullet damage, at certain points you're going to be shooting so many bullets due to the insane fire rate and Ethereal that you're still going to be melting bosses. You still can get Death Rounds if you want to (it's a major boost to bullet damage) but I'd suggest against it because you'd have to spread your build too thin.

favorite: Abby, Grenade Launcher, Splinter, as many "extra bullet," fire rate, and reload speed upgrades as i can get, and the tome that triples base ammo. embrace the chaos.

strongest: Spark, SMGs, and the lightning tree. as long as you get the character upgrades and avoid the miniclip upgrade, you should be fine picking anything else you like.

and this was BEFORE you could control where the lightning tree's lightning struck. now you can have all your lightning focus on the boss or a specific group of enemies...or just leave your cursor in the middle to strike whatever gets closest.

This works with anybody. Kills everything , you don't need to aim just focus on avoiding damage.

Batgun , rush double shot (get split fire, fan fire and fusillade whenever you get the chance and frost mage tree isn't offered, prioritize frostbite over projectiles.

Take Frost Mage tree and frostbite and you are good to go, now just pick up anything that increase the number of hits for your bats, bounce , splinter , pierce all are great , add the other elemental trees to get energized and some burn healing.

Everything is freezing ,burning. exploding into more bats , your damage scales with bullets and summon damage , attack speed and summon attack speed too. bullet damage isn't as important as Fire rate so it bullet damage has the least priority.

Get assassin (under 20% hp instant kill) and Shatter and it's even easier.

This is just a delivery system for the most over powered tree Frost Mage.

With Shana try to triple frostbite , energetic friends or anything giving more projectiles.
With Scarlett try to get pyromage first upgrade early
With Diamond like wise go for pyro so you have a way to heal to procc her passives more
With Hina you can try for max lense and standing on clone for extra damage
With spark go for Electro mage , energized and electro mastery after proj and frost tree
With Lilith an early dragon egg + aged dragon works or ghost for summon attack speed
With Abby Nothing specific is needed but reload speed and attack/summon speed is good. Always be spinning.

Might as well throw Gun Glyph into the mix. You're getting Splinter, and there's no mention of penetration or bullet speed, so you're clearly not afraid of killing yourself XD

wasn't even covering runes, but yeah toss in basically whatever can get you killed. might not be the best or the safest strategy...but it sure is fun! i also like going for the big explosions...this screenshot probably sums it up in a nutshell.

pretty sure i had some Splinter in there too...not sure though.

Abby with SMGs.
Go for "lighning on every xth shot" and pure attack-speed. No need for attck-dmg, vision, summons etc. If you can, go for "fire flame on 5th shot".
Play the first 2-3 levelups with normal shots, then just whirlwind through the enemies with rightclick ability. It's completely OP. Haven't tried it on the normal game mod though, only the 10 min quickplay.

An Abby Grenade Launcher build that has a very low risk of getting yourself killed. Works a charm with the Fire+Lightning synergy, especially since fire can heal you.

Spin to win, baby.

Don't worry. I took it and made it more dangerous, and better.

I'm not saying this will beat Darkness 15 but. I had unlimited ammo with big grenades.

Some knives going around.

It's pretty good.

Okay I got you. Do hina grenade launcher go pure summoning and weapon damage grab magic lens and you'll see something more op than grenade Abby
