Help with Valby
I have a share of hours put into TFD and loving it so far. I maxed 3 characters to lvl 40 and currently having gear (external comp./weapons) around lvl 60... Playing between Ultimate Bunny, Valby and Jayber. Now bunny is great and all but she isn't rly my style. Trying to make Valby my main now but having a hard time and dying at some mission where I do solo (cuz no one around)... any tips and tricks about builds/weapons and things I should look out for? Thanks in advance!

put all the HP mods, put defensive mods, get yourself external components that: 2 give HP bonus and the other 2 give DEF bonus, with that my valby haves 20K HP and 50K DEF, i also have heal on kill mod (all maxed out btw)

are there any viable damage builds for her?

Still working on her, but she is an AOE damage dealer, so you want max range that you can get (200%) find a reactor that does non attribute and dimension (Fusion is good too if you wanna toss balls at things.) Then leveling non attribute/skill modifier.

Currently, my Q hits for, the highest I've seen, is 651k
My C hits for 21k, crits for 35k
My V hits for 52k, crits for 92k.
My Z hits for 60k, crits for 120k.

Not "Bunny" numbers, but I hit for a much larger AoE than bunny does and I don't have to keep moving to do it lol.

so for now I should worry about HP and DEF mods + HP/DEF external components... no focusing on skill stuff?

It all depends on how you want to play her. That much HP and defense is overkill (Imo) I survive hard mode perfectly fine with stats WAY lower than that. 5k HP 25k Def.

NP, also, remember there are two mods that work in tandem together and even at level 1, they are pretty nutty.

Emergency Measures and frontline.
Together they add 23% crit damage and crit rate for skills.

I'm not even done with the main story yet (currently at white night gulch zone) but having a real hard time with doing missions there if I have to solo it. But I really want to focus on valby as she is a fun character to play. My weapons and external comp are around lvl 60 currently and it's frustrating that I die after a few hits or that I don't do enough damage.

I also have skill damage increase mods, but than i put catalyzer on her (or whatever its called) + polarized 2 of her slots to fit the mods on max rank. im like a tank + the V ability ticks for 38K damage. Find the propper PURPLE reactor for her that activates all the bonus amage increases! golreactors are downgrades cos they require you to actually have equiped speciffic weapon, not just have it in your inventory.

If its dmg problem upgrade your weapons and mods. Its better to have fewer mods that are higher rank than filled up everything at rank 0.
If surviving is problem. HP and DEF in char mod and in external components.

Resistance as stat is garbage and dont ever consider taking it.
Im soloing Hard raid bosses with 0 resistances. That "recommended resistances" is waste of shards and mod slots.

Shield is also pure garbage for dps classes. Im not sure how good is for tanking classes.
