Body Expertise? or Low blow for dodge build
I'm making a dodge build but I don't know if BE is better than LB. Is it better if I run both perks aced or just one aced perk. I'm just wondering if I should be investing so many points just to get body expertise and I don't know if it's even benefitial when I already have low blow.

are you using innacurate weapons or not, something like a dmr works well without BE whilst something like an lmg or an innacurate smg may need it due to being more unpredictable

I'm using Akimbo smgs which are pretty inaccurate without skills or mods but I've maxed them out so it's no problem.

you have 2 choices, do you have problems with hordes of enemies and want to get rid of them? Body Expertise, need more damage on single targets like dozers? pick up low blow, imo i prefer to get both LB & BE for dodge builds, but i usually dont get SB for the extra dodge b/c i feel its super overrated and the bottom skill that gives 10 dodge is enough for most dodge decks. hell, sometimes i dont even use BE b/c it doesnt help if you can hit heads most of the time, you dont have to be a human aim bot, but hitting heads kills things quickly, especially if you have crits.

BE - enables a percentage of the crit you would normally do on the head to all of the body and the crit isn't that big unless you're playing on MYH and below, so you would need weapons that do decent damage for it to be optimal.

LB - on the other hand adds another multiplier which can stack with the headshot multiplier enemies already have.

Simply use both to reach better breakpoints.

Slow rate of fire? Don't bother with BE, just get better aim. Fast rate of fire? Use BE.
Ideally, get both. Bullet hoses tend to benefit the most from both skills.

Yeah, using both has a big difference in terms of dealing with groups and single enemies like bulldozers :D

I run both in my build. Makes quick work of all enemies and covers dozers and Turrets.
