By anthony
This is my mechromancer build i've been working out for a while, it's gone through many iterations and it probably will go through some more. But this is what i'm working with now.

- About this build -
I started this build wanting to take advantage of gaiges shield skills as well as anarchy to have a nice ammount of bulk and damage to match. I don't reall like Deathtrap so i sorta left him out on this one to benefit me more.
- Skill Bush -
Keep in mind that if you see something really odd it might be because this is a ucp 4.0 build
I'll only really talk about my main skills since i'm lazy.
http://bl2skills.com/patch/mechromancer.html#530050020500550005140501415050141000

Anarchy
This is pretty much a no brainer when playing gaige, most of her builds rely on this very heavily. Who can say no to 700% gun damage?

Blood soaked shields
This is how i can manage to keep my gigantic shield on at most times and where my bulk comes from. Only thing is you gotta keep killing stuff for the filled shield, which honestly isn't very hard with anarchy buff on the powerful weapons this build uses.

Close enough
Because you obviously aren't gonna hit every time with the anarchy accuracy loss, lmao.

Made of sterner stuff
In the vanilla game i don't know if this would be worth five kill points, but in the UCP it will reward you with 20% damage reduction from all sources which is a fair bit when stacked with the large shield capacity not to mention just effectively increasing your health as well. Also gives DT 15% melee damage.

Myelin
This will give us a 60% resistance to electric damage on our shield as well as increasing it by 30%, no downside just really good for this.

Wires don't talk
I don't use this outside of the UCP since the buff isn't really significant but when using the UCP you will get 25% electric damage. Which is really nice considering not many enemies are resistant to electric damage and it so happens our main weapon is electric.
- Gear -

The twister
So, this is gonna be our main weapon. The twister is just an absolute monster with it's naturally high base damage stat in conjuction with wires don't talk, anarchy and it's jakobs shotgun crit bonus. Usually you can one shot mobs with this without anarchy.
The parts we want are...
-Jakobs grip
-Hyperion stock
-Vertical grip


The slagga
Slag make thing do big damage, but seriously this is a really good weapon with it's high rate of fire and pellet count. Another thing to take into account is smg's have the second highest swap speed behind pistols.
The parts we want...
-Maliwan grip
-Dahl stock
-Accelerated accessory

The fibber
You'll want one of these for each element so as to kill things that are resistant to the twister, i usually use the redundant version with low anarchy then switch to win win versions to reduce ammo consumption (which has never been a problem for me but whatever).
The parts we want are.....
-Hyperion grip
-fibber barrel 3 (the bouncy bullets one)
-double/ damage accessory

The blockade
This is a turtle shield in disguise, it has a gigantic base capacity along with a passive 37% damage resistance which will stack with "made of sterner stuff" (also contrary to popular belief parts don't effect the resistance and the effect is always active unlike the card says.)
Parts we want are...
-All pangolin

Legendary anarchist COM
Just to boost some really nice skills and damage buff.






Slag transfusion
Any slag transfusion will do, just incase you get in a bad situation.
Parts we want...
-longbow





The otto idol
This is what really ties things together on the downlow, sometimes you'll be killing so many things that you kill yourself with "blood soaked shield" so counteracting that and also giving some health regend. It will slightly decrease FFYL time but it's irrelevant.
- Situational Gear -
This gear is mainly for raids or special enemies


The pitchfork
This is going to be for when you're either farming the snowman or having trouble hitting buzzards.
Parts we want.....
-Jakobs grip
-Dahl stock




Bone of the ancients
For when you aren't frequently killing and want more damage.







The bee
Just one of the best raiding shields









The hail
this is for the majority of raid bosses and crystalisks.
Parts we want...
-Vladof grip
-Dahl stock
- Thanks for checking out my guide -
This is my first guide so i know it's not very visually appealing but i've played the game since it's launch day and i definitely know a few things about it, if they is well received i might consider doing kore guides perhaps on game mechanics since that's what i'm more interested in. But yeah if you have any questions feel free to ask.

You really don't need a launcher while mobbing, if you just want to be extremely OP, run a regular shamfleet build.

It's not an electric build, just has some electric skills. And either way for this build the twister would be superior.
