PAYDAY 2 Build: The Gadget Guy (Sentry Version)

The Skill Tree

• TECHNICIAN TREE
  I think that this tree is really good to be a fast player, I mean that with the first perks of the Tech tree you can do your best to be as much efficient as you can, like take less damage while doing things like restarting drills, rescue team-mates. Also the Rifleman perk is really usefull, it makes you to be more reactive when playing.
  I put the sentry build as main because they are definitely unused and some people think that they're useless.
  That's not true!!!
  I prefer to deserve 'em for the escape moment or a really critic emergency. Anyway we also got all the drill perks like a good Gadget-Guy and i put some points on stability perks for the weapons, I haven't Aced out the Rifleman perk because personally i don't like to aim with a minor FOV.
  NO C4, i repeat, NO C4!
  That's useless for this kind of game-style.
  You won't be the guy who takes care of blowing doors or safes. You just have to give SUPPORT to the other team-mates.
  
  
• GHOST TREE
  I Aced out the Sprinter and Fast-Hands perks because they're pretty usefull in every kind of situation, I add some points on them in every build I make.
  Basic Cleaner perk because in some kind of situations you will want to take care of special enemies, and even a little bit of boost of damage will do its job.
  1 point in Chamaleon just to be sure trying to stealth some missions, the random dynamic of the maps will require some time in casing mode to acquire the correct info..
  Basic perk of Cat Burglar, you won't mess up your armor.
  By the way... Armor... Thats really important, and usefull of course, you have to Ace out the Bulletproof skill that will help a lot when facing Cops. :P
  Basic skill point in Shinobi is important to boost your walk and crouch speed.
  
  
• ENFORCER TREE
  It can be underestimated for this kind of build, but its a MUST for this in particular.
  The key is to Ace out the Die-Hard perk, thats gives you a boost of armor regeneration. Die-Hard (Aced out) + Bulletproof (Aced out) is a nice mix that really improves your armor A LOT.
  Ace out the Transporter perk is really important to increase your efficiency on the battlefield, that makes you throw the bags farther. It's worthy to spend 4 skill points to Ace this out.
  Put the Basic point on Tough Guy perk is important to make you more accurate when suppressed by the enemy fire.
  1 point in Underdog perk because i needed to unlock the next branch :)
  
  
• MASTERMIND TREE
  I personaly don't like to spend 4 skill points for the Cable Guy perk like everyone else, it's not worthy as a choice. I prefer to use those points to Ace out the Endurance Perk, that also will boost your team-mates' stamina. Nice, uhm?
  Leadership perk is a MUST, Aced out it because you will want STABILITY (also the Sentry power, but we already talked about it :P). Stability is the thing in this build that makes the difference between a good player and a bad player.
  You'll need to rush in some situations and stay back in others, but with a Technician Tree mixed with the armor perks of the Enforcer and a Mastermind wise choices, you can do both. It's up to you!
  Smooth Talker has to be Aced out because is really important that the special enemies are killed fast, and with this you have a damage boost on them. You can also be able to answer to 4 pager now with the basic skill, and attempt doing some stealth runs, but this won't be your priority.
  1 point in Combat Medic perk just to be helpfull for your team-mates, but you'll notice the utility of this perk only in some extremely rare situations, like when your team's Mastermind is down.

WEAPONS

RECOMMENDED WEAPONS
------------------------------
ASSAULT RIFLES
------------------------------

• G36
  As Assault rifle I prefer to use the G36, because it has a lot of default ammo, it's stable and it deals a good amount of damage if you know how to use it :)
• Commando 553
  With the new DLC Armored Transport is now available this new nice assault rifle. I'm using it right now, and its really nice.
  Good ratio Ammo/Damage, but not a good stability, and a lot of recoil :(
  Some mods can fix it :)
  -------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Single Shot Weapons NO SHOTGUNS
  -------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
• M308
  Thats nice if your play-style is more about stay behind the lines and one-shot enything that moves.
  Just one single rule to remember: AIM HEAD!
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  As the secondary i personally prefer to use a submachine-gun
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
• Compact 5
  In my opinion the most powerfull and usefull submachineguns in every kind of situations, like stealth (not need) and Plan B situations.
  Nice ration Ammo/Damage and a really good stability.
  
• Swedish K
  Added with the Armored Transport DLC, this is High-Damage weapon, but the recoil and the instability are really unsustainable.
  Good only if you are looking to use it only in a restricted number of situations, and not as a primary weapon.

Yeah. I agree.

[cedrobert]

for me i think the jp 36 dont do that much damages only 35 i reccomend using the amr for the 45 damage when fully modded that mean 2 shot the fullly armored fbi and if you care about the stability dont use holo it reduce stability by half when aiming use the dlc sight or the red dot
for the secondary its perfect the mp5 is powerfull and good, for the build its perfect
tried it and wow
