Build Diversity

[OREGRIM]

I realized I use 1 build per class over 95% of the time. Anyone else realize this as well? I build for most DPS usually using https://karl.gg/#/

If this is a problem, then there's a solution:

Use other builds.

Well there's your problem.

[Chibbity]

Nah, can't relate; I have 5 builds for every class and I love them all.

[Frisky]

I use up all my loadout slots on gunner and still can't find enough space for all my builds

[Smetrix]

Not really, I like to have at least 2 builds per weapon, and if I get bored, I just make one that I haven’t used.

Branch out. Different builds for different maps.

for the longest time I didnt use the sludge cannon. I forced myself to use it, to learn it. I'm glad I did, tho its sad to hear them cry out as they dissolve.

I LOVED the M-1000 for the scout. I got the the point I was Quigly Down Under. I forced myself to use the assault rifle and the plasma rifle. Now I use them more than the M-1000.

Only 2 weapons I wont use. The Crossbow and the plasma pistol of the Driller.

Nope. I use different builds for different types. For example, Elimination and Salvage are wildly different situations. Why would I take a high single target damage, Dreadnought slowing build into a static defense vs swarms situation?

I basically never use the DRAK or Brrt though. They just feel awful compared to the other available options.

If Im bored I just sometimes randomy select mod on a random weapon and see how it goes. If I like what I have carefully created, I tweak from there

I use all loadout slots on all classes, with multiple weapons setup and few repeat OCs in each. Can't relate.

I also use all 5 loadout slots for all classes and yet i can relate somewhat.
I rarely if ever modify these loadouts, i've played the game for hundreds of hours but i'm confident there's a good number of overclocks i've never tried because i'm used to playing with only a select few.
This is why i was excited when they introduced a random loadout beer: now i can make missions a bit more challenging and try builds i wouldn't have otherwise.

[Microwaved Dave]

I wish we had more load out slots all mine are used up.

[Marmarmar34]

I barely have any game changing OCs to warrant changing my builds. So yeah, I guess I have that problem too.

[CCShad]

I use the same loadouts a lot, there's probably at least a dozen OCs I haven't touched since I got them... Which is probably why I enjoy the all new Randoweisser™ beer so much!
Stuck in a rut, bored of the same ways in which you kill bugs? Beard looking stale? Beers all taste the same? Don't fret! The Randoweisser™ is a smooth, foamy wheat beer brewed with whatever random, available ingredients the brewery could find, giving you a new, fresh, albeit sometimes questionable taste experience every time you try it. It's sure to inspire!

There are 6 loadout slots for each class, use them.

As a sort of foundation I set them up with two loadouts per primary (A/B for first, C/D for second, E/F for third), pick an Overclock, then build the rest of the loadout around that.
