Spammy Build

LARGELY DEPENDENT ON HIPSTER OVERCLOCK

1. Increased Cailber Rounds – Helps offset the damage downside of the OC, plus you reeeally don’t need extra ammo with that mod.

2. Better Weight Balance – Helps you get even more out of the basic hipfire, smaller groups are great. Also, the only other perk in this slot is for the focus you’re not using most of the time.

3. Extended Clip – You need lots of pews to spam into enemies all the time, so deeper mags help. The only other perk in this slot is for focus.

4. Hollow-Point Bullets – Helps you get the most out of your shots, with this perk you can one shot basic glyphids with headshots. Blowthrough Rounds are too inconsistent and depend on the enemies grouping up right, not really worth trying to milk it. Hardened Rounds is good, but you can do more damage by focusing your shots on weak points and not trying to soften enemies up.

5. Killing Machine – Your goal is to dump bullets, so you’re gonna be going through magazines fast. The reload speed buff helps with maintaining that up time, the other two perks relate to focus shots. Precision Terror can give you some situational advantages if you have the time to line up a focus shot and scare off some of the enemies. Hitting Where It Hurts can help for larger enemies like praetorians that you need to stun to keep their weakpoint facing you for longer. >
