Bandit build idea's?

[<color=#CD3210>Lunatic]

I was testing bandit a bit today.

High attack speed no purity, clover and ukelele charged perforater was fairly effective, but average dps.

So i tried for perma crit, perma tonic, perma warhorn, with crowbar stacking and 5 purity.

The desparado stacks got impressive enough that combat shrine elite grandfathers were getting one shotted after 100 stacks.

Had to loop to wipwip cause somebody stupidly bought solus probes and for those who don't know, mithrix's 3rd phase solu probes one shot players worse then vengeance opinion.

So the fight was long, but i found out that the haemorrhage 2000% over 15 seconds that stacks while using a purity build with tonic and perma crit was sufficient enough to whittle down wip wips 25mil hp and his dios respawn rather quick enough, including 1 shatterspleen.

Here's the end result : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2568330970

I'm also considering a melee bandit build.

Items : 10 glasses, 1 gesture, 1 fuel cell, 1 frost relic, 1 soulbound catalyst, 4 purity, as much focus crystals as possible, please forgive me.

Concept : His melee secondary and utility skills being spammed without cooldown while permanent frost relic aura. Turning him into a constantly invisible (constantly refreshing enemy detection) hemo bleed melee expert.

Thoughts?

Too bad please forgive me dolls do not proc desparao stacks, that would be epic. Imagine perma dolls giving 3 stacks per second ergo 60% bonus deesp dmg per sec.

I've brought solus probes to mithrix many times, literally just don't go near his summoned ones and you're totally fine.

I'd imagine he goes better with bands and on kill items like Loader and Sniper. If I find a purity as Bandit, I automatically take it because I know I'm not really activating atg's and bleed anyway. And yeah, crowbar scales really well with desperado.

If you stack attack speed like other characters, he can be really good with on hit effects too.

i don't see a viable option stacking the Shatterspleen XD but i didn't test it much

Melee Bandit can be very very insane.

Yeah i gave it a try, combined constant refreshing of invisibility from utility + utility damage with minimal cooldown was fairly effective.

Yeah, it's super fun with the right items!

Because oh his huntress style low health, i ran his melee build not with perma tonic, but with perma dolls, frost relic, topaz and infusion, then just kept stacking focus and crowbar somewhat equally.

So he ended up with decent damage but also decent survival, and because most of his defense was temporary health, i negated malachite damage.
