Overview

A full DPS variant of Scrapper - Quickness Support Power DPS that abandons its group quickness generation for increased personal damage. Doesn't deal enough damage to be competitive with other meta DPS builds but is extremely durable thanks to the continuous stream of barrier provided by Impact Savant.

Skill Variants

Utility

  • Bulwark Gyro could be used to replace either Rifle Turret if the groups needs Stability Stability or damage reduction. Be aware that Bulwark Gyro can rapidly down you if your teammates are taking too much damage.
  • Purge Gyro could also be taken for a potent condi cleanse.


Elite

  • Sneak Gyro will provide Stealth Stealth to five targets, which can be very potent in the right situation. Avoid using it in general, however, as Stealth Stealth can interrupt players attacks and it interferes with deadeye rotations that rely on Stealth Stealthing only at the correct time.

Easy, superfunny (try a asura) and powerful. I'm going to invest more time on it!

Easy, decent damage, and survivable. Even better on encounters where you get a lot of stability.
