Death Sentence One Down Dodge

Finalised DSOD dodge build we spent over half a decade tweaking & perfecting.

This build does not have inspire.

Read my final notes before you complain in the comments, please.

Don't jump into this build thinking it's going to be magical, as you still need to use your brain.
Crouch, & run from cover to cover; keep those helmets flying.

Final Notes

Why no Inspire?

We decided that Inspire is planning for failure, & it uses a lot of skill points that could be used elsewhere for higher survivability.

Personally, our friends aren't crazy enough to be playing a lot of Payday 2 in 2023, so our builds are designed with solo/duo play in mind.

Also, if you happen to be playing with friends who are taking a doctor bag, maybe you don't need Jack of all Trades either.

The Guns

You don't have to use these guns, but just make sure you keep your concealment under 5.

I recommend using guns with medium to long range, with a large ammo pool.

Conclusion

I stayed up all night hastily making this ♥♥♥♥, so if there's anything I missed or if I messed up - maybe you might have some feedback - feel free to let me know, just don't be a loser.

The constructive criticism we've been receiving since releasing our build has been very insightful! There are definitely some areas where we could improve this build. I appreciate the feedback and suggestions!

{LINK REMOVED}https://pd2builder.netlify.app/?s=5g3c1000dg10-5gF00ChN6000100&p=3&a=0&t=4&d=3

here's a build with jokers and no inspire, just need to drop fire control.

[fortnite_burger7]

also speccing up to aggressive reload is useless, far better of getting lock and load aced, 100% reload speed which you will basically always proc as long as you're killing enemies vs 15% is a no brainer.

[Tygaar]

I'm not seeing any valuable criticism here. We posted our build which worked for us for DSOD. Either keep your negative comments to yourself or spend your time elsewhere.

[VTubers are cringe]

I "needed" the guide for a build I just ripped a new asshole?

[ogoh]

and that's why i have the dsod mask and you needed a guide for it <3
read the last word in my guide

[VTubers are cringe]

If you're going down enough with a perk deck that has one of the lowest skill floors in the game to warrant Nine Lives, I dunno what to say to that other than git gud.

[ogoh]

You don't want an extra down for DSOD? Parkour aced is to get sneaky bastard. Also I like the sharpshooter skills because I can aim, and I'd rather to it faster. It's what worked for us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[VTubers are cringe]

I just took a deeper look and this build is an even bigger trainwreck than expected. Nine Lives? Parkour aced? Rifleman and Aggressive Reload? Where's Lock n' Load aced? Engineer skills? Drill skills beyond Hardware Expert?

[ogoh]

haha
