You will with all those buffs while also stacking and shooting have about 5k to 8k dmg per shot depending how lucky you get with substats from mods. The only one who might out DPS you will be Bomber JAW build but thats only if he has best substats on Gold Mods as possible. Otherwise you will always be in top with dmg. Ammo try to use Steel Ammo or Tungsten Ammo depending what you have. In end game use Precision LMG AP Ammo which is best ammo for Gunner and has special effects for Fast Gunner to have even more dmg. Tho this Ammo only use against certain bosses you want to be done with as quickly as possible, otherwise you would be using too much of your resources. Forgot to add that u need to put some 2 x crit rate on MG4 Predator Best one is Stabilized Style Calibration so your MG4 Predator becomes lazer

[@TroyGamingtv]

I tried testing the crit build but it didn't come out as good, but that may be due to my mods. Ill have to give this a try to see how it compares. Ill add it to our Meta Builds document in the discord. Thanks!

what's the target crit rate and crit damage ?

[@Kastrel717]

@@spliffzombonie without buffs or shooting to stack more crit dmg you should be looking around base from your gear menu 45 to 50 crit rate and 135 to 150 crit dmg depending how lucky you with mods.

I've also recently started doing a lmg build and I did a hybrid crit/weakspot build and its been turning out well, been using 3 piece bast and 3 piece renegade instead so I get both 50% weapon dmg when crouch (while also 70% hp) and 50% weakspot dmg when hitting weakspots (10% from 2 piece and 40% from the stacking at 3 piece) Helm: Gold precision strike (36% WP dmg at max stack but atm I only have a weak roll for it) Mask: Gold Targeted Strike (10% crit rate, 25% crit dmg when hitting a marked enemy) because it can get a crit dmg bonus of when hitting bulls eyed enemies since mines is purple its 14.4%) Chest: same as you but gold with crit dmg Legs: Deadshot Violent (Gold with crit dmg and mag size) Gloves: Crit Amp Resonance (prime wars mod since I got purple on the crit part its an extra 16% crit dmg when hitting weakspots) Boots: Same as you and will need to find a good roll for my MG4 pred i instead use precision rush (45% weakspot dmg when shooting for 3 seconds and i got both weakspot dmg and weapon dmg on it when in fastgunner state) i also could only find a overflow style calibration with double crit rate, currently looking for heavy though Secondary: Bingo Sniper with gold vulnerability mod Melee: Long axe for fortress warfare Deviant: same as you so how I start a fight is to animation cancel the long axe by swapping weapons when I started the heavy attack into the sniper and shoot to trigger bullseye, the fortress warfare is delayed so when you get to your MG4 it should proc, then you just gotta crouch and aim at weakspots as much as you can which makes the build miserable when fighting something with no weakspots or weakspots that are hard to hit

[@MastahDonJKaine-wq5qn]

Nice video I’m trying this build now

[@TroyGamingtv]

It's so much fun and I don't even have good mods yet. Hope you enjoy!

[@crocking5566]

Thank u for the video I build as u said and it's awesome

[@ramonsantos4426]

Nice video bud. Btw i run shrapnel as main build, and ofc like everyone been thinking on makinh a fast gunner just for special cases like keeping the set on inventory and quick switch when i meet an anomaly. Thing is do i really have to go for the legendary weapon? So i made myself a purple fast gunner and. Now that i seen your video im gonna try to set it up with the mods that i already have from past season. Will let you know what i think of it when i do the testing. So; as u've made the set, i suppose you've tested it against the balance anomalies, Question: do you still have to stuck the mob between something and you or can you shoot it not hiding all time behind something? I ask cause it's impossible to kill it with the shrapnell build if im not hiding (bugging the mob)

[@TroyGamingtv]

I haven't had any issues. I was running some hard mode dungeons and we cleared the anomaly pretty easily. If you encounter them in the wild though, sometimes it's best to run because the loot isn't worth the hassle imo.

[@W.M.1]

Did u show ur unbuffed stats? Wana see what to aim for. Also is it good for hard/pro stuff?

[@TroyGamingtv]

I made this on an alt account and with steel bullets, no buffs, bad mods, no blitzkreig I was around 30k dps. Very good for Hard/Pro and with the right stuff you'll be way up there.

[@kellshepherd1942]

My cradle only has 4 options per line while yours has 5. Thoughts on why?

[@kellshepherd1942]

Nevermind.. I think it's because you're doing a special server as mentioned at the start.

[@TroyGamingtv]

Yeah, this is tailored towards the specific server type. The additional cradle items are due to the super anomaly counter measures.

[@soil-jn4or]

Why do i rarely see slow and steady being used for boots?

[@TroyGamingtv]

Slow and stead is great a lot of people like Covered Advance too. Those are usually the 2 go to depending on if you need elemental damage.

[@dangerman808]

If i were to go Renegage and build weakspot for move overall boss dps, should i got 3 piece or 4 piece with oasis and bastille?

[@TroyGamingtv]

I tried all types of combos when I put this together and maybe it's just a training dummy issue, but weakspot seemed to perform the worst when I stacked that over other things. In the end Weapon Damage was always #1 in my testing. As for the Bastille you only need 3.

[@jmercado3612]

@@TroyGamingtvive done a renegade build with full weakspot pred build and hit about 62k dps with 570k total dps with a mag of 100 w/o any buffs, mark, or deviant

[@thirdy6577]

in my case(weakspot/dmg build), the build he was making(3pc bastille/2 savior) has more damage than renegade(4 piece renegade/1 bastille) set. but i chose to use renegade as you can survive more on solo runs, unless you rocking festering gel deviant, then i guess u can tank most of it. almost tried all builds too(crit/weakspot/memento/DMG) since i am a day-1 FG user.

[@ZenTacticaI]

@@jmercado3612 I agree with this. Im doing full renegade with oasis and one bastille. No buffs I can do 67k dps, with cradle and assorted canned fruit i'm doing 15k per weakspot hit which instantly melts any boss with no immunity phase. The training dummy doesn't work with cradle buffs and certain substats, you can only really check your true dps when your fighting an actual boss.

[@plusultra779]

How about using blizkreig on the oasis mask? That's what I use

[@TroyGamingtv]

@@plusultra779 yes that’s the one you wanna use. I mixed up the overlay on the mask.

[@ishmaikel]

What calibration weapon are you using for this build?

[@TroyGamingtv]

Stabilized, Crit Crit.. but Rapid Crit Crit would probably be better? This is just what I had and works well because it fires like a laser. However, the other will provide more damage.

[@hanzjerichogarabiles5198]

Is Renegade not okay with Predator?

[@TroyGamingtv]

Renegade is another version of the build that focuses on Weakspot damage. It does insane damage but if you're not hitting the weakspot or the enemy has no weakspot it really trails off. The build here is more of a jack of all trades build. I may put out a weakspot damage build in the near future. Especially since the new scenario features another "Fast Gunner" build.

[@japarwu1565]

Is this build better than shrapnel?

[@TroyGamingtv]

Depends on how good your mods are I imagine. I haven't played shrapnel since pre 1.1 but this is a nice fun build.

@@TroyGamingtv is the 20 extra bullets worth the reload taking twice as long on base, or doe the mod amplifiers counter it?

[@TroyGamingtv]

@@simonmelluish5438 The 20 extra bullets means more stacks and more free bullets so I'm not sure. I haven't tried to test both.

[@arekborowski8881]

the only downside to this build is ammo, you will need a looooot of it :D

[@TroyGamingtv]

Yes and no. You get those burst windows of free ammo with the build that stack and it does a ton of damage so things die fast. Although it does probably use more than most, probably only rivaled by the smg. However, its all relative for crafting. It cost the same to craft a few handgun bullets as it does hundreds of lmg bullets.

@@zacyu208 I had the lonewolf set and tried doing crit first and it didn’t even compare to the bastille weapon damage build. Plus, it’s tailored to the wish machine so bastille will be easy to get.

[@CardinalCake]

@@TroyGamingtv thing is though, you being able to crouch and not move is such a niche situation that lonewolf over all would be better.

[@TroyGamingtv]

@@CardinalCake it’s not a big deal and you can still roll while unable to sprint which negates it. Give it a try and you’ll see how not a factor it really is.

[@PsyArtKitech02]

My first build was Full Weakspot and it really packs a lot of damage on boss weak spot when I shoot them point black with all of the buffs Damage can go 20K to 30K+ every bullets though not recommended. because if you can't hit the weak spots your damage is shit. 🤣

[@TroyGamingtv]

Yeah, i've seen those builds and they are nasty but like you said, if you miss the weakspot the damage take a big dive. I wanted to make these builds as a jack of all trade for the specific server type and anomalies because no one seemed to putting those together. They won't be the highest damage in every situation but they will be solid.

[@lllm299news]

every m4 i ever picked up is so all over the place at range, not sure how you hit anything

[@TroyGamingtv]

It's all about the attachments and if you use the scope it helps a bunch more.

[@yeahyana7511]

@@TroyGamingtv You actually don't need to test it yourself. The build in question utilizes the 3-part Bastille set effect, specifically the Bastille state, which grants a +40% Weapon DMG bonus when you remain crouched and immobile for 0.5 seconds. However, I wish good luck to those who rely on this effect while soloing Silos and Monoliths, not to mention LEA, as exiting the Bastille state disables sprinting for 3 seconds and increases stamina consumption by 100%. The build suggested by the other user is indeed more effective for Prime Wars and non-instanced content, but that's about it.

[@TroyGamingtv]

@@yeahyana7511 The Bastille set sprint being disabled isn't as harsh as it seems since you can still roll, which is faster than sprint anyway until sprint is unlocked. I thought it would be an issue but hasn't been since i've been playing. However, Pro isn't unlocked on my server yet so we will see if my opinion changes.

[@yeahyana7511]

​@@TroyGamingtv I often feel that the game lacks mobility, and making changes that could hinder it further seemed like a bad idea. Thank you for the information, rolling out of the Bastille state never crossed my mind! I'm still on a Novice server and haven't had the opportunity to try it myself, so my judgment was based solely on the description.

[@TroyGamingtv]

@@yeahyana7511 yeah I totally understand I was thinking the same exact thing as you! However, it's really not that bad. Honestly being overweight is 1000x more annoying, which I often am while doing Blackfell runs lol.
