Allrounder Striker Build

For everyone that feels home in the DPS Role, wants a weapon damage focused build but doesn't always have a group to support their survivability!

 

This build makes use of the NinjaBike Messager Bag and it's unique Talent "Resourceful", which allows it to "fill in" for gear and brand set requirements. By combining this with 2 pieces of Unit Alloy gear, and 3 pieces of Striker's Battlegear we get both the Increased Rate of Fire, Assault Rifle Damage and Magazine Size of the Unit Alloy Brand set, as well as the Weapon Handling, Rate of Fire and "Striker's Gamble" bonuses from the Striker's Battlegear gear set. With these attributes, it excels as a "general" or "every day" build. You will be more than capable of engaging in Open-World Content and Missions on Heroic difficulty, or use it to farm for gear in the "Countdown" gamemode.

 

In an ideal setup, we combine this with the St. Elmos Engine to make use of its synergy with a high magazine size, but until you can get your hand on one any Assault Rifle that benefits from a high rate of fire and critical hits will work.

If you don't like how the St. Elmos Engine plays, you could also combine this build with the Chamelion Exotic assault rifle, as it will highly benefit from our focus on critical hit chance and damage.

 

For your secondary, the "Lefty" named ACS-12 Shotgun works well to get some extra damage boost on a target with its talent "Perfect Sledgehammer" - if you can hit your grenades....

Overall however, pretty much every sidearm works as a backup, since you will spend most of your time with the St. Elmo's engine. A shotgun of some sort is recommended, if you ever do run out of ammo.

 

As for the Sidearm: If you don't already have the "Quickstep", don't worry about it. As of writing this guide, it's not acquireable anymore as it was part of the Halloweeen Event 2025. Just pick whatever you have or like, it has no impact on the build.

 

The Gunner Specialization is a must-have for this build. It gives us a bit of armor and more firerate on-kill, regenerates a bit of ammunition as well as a fast reload every third reload.

 

For Skills I will definitely recommend the reviver hive since even with the decent amount of armor this build provides, you never know when you get surprised from behind.

For your second skill, you can pick and choose what works best for you. The Banshee Pulse, Riot Foam Launcher or Fixer Drone are all solid options. Just make sure to not take the Fixer Drone (Or other Drone Types/Emplacements) into the "Countdown" gamemode, as the Hunters you will be facing can Hack them and turn them against you.

 

I hope this Build brings you as much fun as it does me, and I will see you out there Agent!
