A daily driver for running around and doing general tasks. Stealth focused bow build. Mutant's on the bow & armor provides a constant, flat bonus; while you could get more out of other Legendary effects, they require managing caps, Onslaught stacks, etc. Nothing special to manage here outside Feral. Could add a Lucid second bow & drop Moral Support.
Thorn armor for added Stealth, can be acquired from Minerva.
This is a tanky human juggernaut build designed to be used with the Juggernaut 1 star legendary effect. Base non-buffed health is roughly 800-850HP. The buffs I use to get to 1000HP are Tato Salad, Silt Bean Soup, & Psychobuff. Other optional buffs are Blight Soup, Popcorn, Overdrive, Birthday Cake Slice (or something similar), Company Tea. These are the buffs I use typically for bosses/raids. Power Armor and listed Weapons are optional and up to you.
feral ghoul melee bleed
Intended to be able to primary a bow EDC, but use other slow fire weapons in a pinch (energy, ballistic). Based off Angry Turtle build.
This is a all around daily driver build for exploration with a good balance between carry weight and damage not suited for endgame content like raids or scorched queen.
A support medic build that can dish out decent damage, you can opt out of Spiritual Healer and or Revenant and maybe even Inspirational and instead bump up Team Medic if you really want to support the party with heals and want range+healing power, I just got those 3 to fit the theme thematically and honestly if people go down its usually instantly and your heals has no way of saving them.
Both builds are for Ballistic and Energy.
