Good character for weapons
Well, I'm very new to the game, I only have 90 hours, I've already farmed my ultimate, which in this case is lepic, I would like to know the best character to play with just weapons, without depending on releasing skills all the time, my first character is AJAX Would it be a case of taking his Supreme? I still don't understand mods very well so I'm lost. I appreciate any help

Gley I think, for ammo. You will still use abilities tho. But more so to oomph the guns.

Valby with her moist build is much better then Gley, (the guy above don't want to spam abilities, Valby has a better time for those). Gley need to spam her infinite ammo every 7-10 seconds. Also, if you like Enduring as gun, Enzo might be your guy, but you need augment on his first, to make that 170+mag clip almost always crit.
Valby is more skill power dmg then guns, even with Supply Moisture.

Gley, Enzo, Freyna, Blair, Lepic, Ajax and Yujin. are the ones that use guns more then skills for dmg.

He's still more gun dmg then say: Luna, Valby, Bunny, Esimo.

I dunno 1.5 mill grenades are nothing to sneeze at.
A high dmg from skills does not mean can go without even touching a gun.

Gley for big sustained AoE gun damage and Sharen for the absurd single target gun damage IMO.

She can also use the same cloak multiplier to increase skill dmg. See can go entire missions without touching a gun.

Enzo. He's a great weapon platform solo and for group, and also needed for opening chests. Plus you don't need a rare transcendent mod for him to shine right from the get go. Unlike say Valby.

You are not wrong, it applies very nicely for the absolutely huge single target sniper hits as well.

Valby with supply moisture and stack crit rate and crit dmg on your gun. You will be critting all the time while in water,

Gley, Enzo, and Yujin skills all revolve around their guns and gun damage, everyone else focuses more on skills. An argument could ber made for Ajax as well, since his skills focus on defensive barriers.

Enzo is my prefered gun character and the reason is simple.
His first skill is an ammo drop, it gives ammo to every weapon type, keeping you from running out of ammo, but can be modded with a red mod to change it into more gun crit chance and weak point damage (additive not multiplicative) this doesn't scale of skill power.
His second skill is a damage skill but all i ever use it for is knocking shield enemys down so i can hit them with my guns
His third skill regenerates your shield 30% of max shield on use and 2% every second for the duration this doesn't scale off skill power
His fourth skill gives a drone that increases gun damage, crit hit rate (additive not multiplicative), and reload speed while also regenerating ammo for the duration. The drone also is a turret that does low damage but that doesn't matter.

Basically build for skill duration and cool down so your 3 and 4 last a long time, if you use maximise duration it will reduce your skill power, but that's not important since duration and cool down will let you keep your increased gun damage reload speed and crit chance drone on for longer letting you pump out more gun damage.,

I think I'll go with Enzo then, I just hope that Enzo Supremo doesn't come too quickly hehe because there's no space for new characters.

I thank everyone for the arguments and explanations.

Enzo may kill Gluttony in under 30 seconds using Enduring Legacy (110-120M+ damage in 30 seconds) :lunar2019piginablanket: That's why I always leave matches for the last three hardmode bosses when I don't see Enzo in the group - they are guaranteed fail :lunar2019crylaughingpig:

Enzo, Blair, Gley, Valby

Sharen for impact, sniper based weapon
