jet fuel Homebrew question.
I just unlocked jet fuel homebrew, and I must say I really like it! It’s a lot of fun. Though, I wonder if this is a big Bertha type overclock. Doing direct damage while still doing some aoe. Also, I’ve been pondering what weapon mods would be good for the OC. Would it be best to choose all the damage mods when using the OC, or should I consider using some aoe mods on it as well. Also, should I use an aoe bulldog on the weapon or should I use a single target BRT7?

It has even less AoE focus than BB though, but the damage per hit is way higher, especially on weakpoint with the right mod.
I'd just go full direct damage and pick up the weakpoint bonus mod, it's stupidly strong.

Your best bet is going 11x12. It's probably the only Hurricane OC that makes use of the T4 50% weakspot damage effectively - with Jet Fuel Homebrew, it 1-shots Grunts in the mouth.
T3 is flexible - +1 RoF increases your dps, x2 magsize increases ammo sustain (a bit). AoE Bulldog or Electric Minelets BRT should solve any AoE issues you might have quite easily.
Don't pick T2 Armour Breaking on Hurricane - it doesn't work at all as of Season 1 Patch 5. I'd recommend it instead of more velocity if it worked.

Oh yeah. It feels gooooood to aim at a gylphid swarm, aim at one of the glyphids head, clicking a couple of times, and destroying them one by one. Truly a sight to behold.

Armor breaking is bugged? I didn’t know that. Good to know. Also I’ll make sure to try out my aoe bulldog with the OC.

Jet fuel is better for single target imo, so kit the gun for full direct damage :)

As a secondary, bulldog with explosive rounds and neurotoxin compliments it quite well, magic bullets overclock if you have it ;D

I have it. It’s my favorite overclock for the bulldog, actually.

Same, nothing like aiming within the zip code of a webspitter on the ceiling, and popping it in one shot xD

Oh yeah, totally. Not to mention killing swarmers and nedocyte shockers!

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention it here the stun chance is also very nice sense napalm rounds got balanced and missiles don’t stay in the air very long it is very nice in locking down targets.

plus, If I want to go all in with damage, I'd choose stun over napalm which decreases your direct damage.

Yeah before they change anything about it it was kind of busted.
But locking a warden down with your first missile to kill him with the other three you sent along is always nice and stun locking a goo bomber to death is hilarious.

shooting wardens weak points feels great with this oc. Plus, I dislike goo bombers immensely! Shooting them down what are anti bug missles are great.
