Amazing build. Definitely gonna try this on NG+. Bit of advice, you can improve your gun damage by an additional 15% by equipping a melee weapon with 5 augmentation slots and placing 5 kinetic coils in it. You gain the bonuses from melee weapons all the time unlike guns where they have to be unholstered to gain the bonuses.

[@Rizzit]

-tHeGaMe- this is interesting. i see something coming up 😂

[@-tHeGaMe-]

ZaK McKRaCKeN the cryo pod perk allows an extra augmentation and higher tier melee weapons like the asari sword have 4 slots already

[@starballs12]

Rizzit how are you able to have maverick 6 I seem to only be able to get 5

[@PiMaC1985]

starballs12 once you unlock the fifth one, the sixth is in the new "advanced" category, up to X (10)

[@starballs12]

PiMaC1985 ah alright thank you

[@vxeel]

Changes, Add Fusion Mod of Shielding to your chest. It has a great Synergy with Life support in the Tech tree because then your 50% health is always regenning to Full from the 50% health regeneration cap. Add Shield Oscillator To you weapon for +25% Shields each time your clip cycles (which is all the time, instantaneously) Finally Choose Hold the Line instead of In The Trenches because of the synergy between Hold the Line Fusion Mod of Shielding and Bio-Converter. Your health is already at 50% due to Fusion Mod of Shielding and your constantly draining it down to 30% with Bio-converter with then drastically pumps your Damage resistance (something this build clearly wants) Considering Damage resistance works with shields and health and you almost constantly being below 30% health your tankyness increases incredibly.

[@Vardraq]

Nice idea, though i am unable to add the bio converter if I have the oscillator and vice versa.

[@awkward.6889]

Came here from Star florge, who placed this build at number 1 for best builds on KZbin! This looks awesome, so I'll be staying here for a while!

[@Rizzit]

That's just sick :D I never imagined my builds would go that far...

[@TrevonMorris]

A shotgun build with range, cloak, and gap closer, all in one, plus speed boost fire rate endless reload. Doomsday device confirmed, no wonder it sucks you dry, its a demonic weapon. Awesome build!

[@XXP6933]

*charge shield full restore

[@CrispyKris1]

This video just popped up on my feed randomly and I am glad it did, the build is awesome and and its obvious that i took a lot of hard work. Props to you man, gj :D

[@CrispyKris1]

it took a lot of hard work** xD

[@mersadrekanovic7420]

great build, i can see the hard work behind it keep it up man.

[@Rizzit]

Thank You :) Appreciated

[@josemanuelgonzalezrodrigue2714]

How can i get more kinetic coil? I have just 1 and i need more or them.

[@Shinychicken1000]

Jose Manuel Gonzalez Rodriguez go to the General goods vendor in the Nexus and save. Then buy the mod from here and save again and load the last save, she then should have another one for you to buy

[@READERSENPAII]

Jose Manuel Gonzalez Rodriguez I think you can buy them in kadara

[@harryquantrill1314]

if you replace 1 kinetic coil for shield oscillators you gain 25% shields on every kill, which would be very beneficial on insanity

[@Rizzit]

not for boss fights, tried this but felt lackluster.

[@zer00rdie]

Boss fights are trivial in this game.

[@thesavageslayer7206]

You can't have the shield oscillators with the gun behavior augment.

[@Flakzor123]

not in the gun, in the chest armor. you drop 5 damage resistance because you only have 4 kinetic coils but regain 25% shields on every kill, it is really quite OP.

[@WhyDidYoutubeDoThis]

Insanity needs to be harder imo

[@SuporexTV]

dude this is sick

[@Rizzit]

Thanks bud :) appreciated

[@SuporexTV]

shame it needs around level 40 to work properly. Any Insanity build for around level 20 you think would work good?

[@Rizzit]

I think this works very well with just turbocharge, shotguns and the tech tree.

[@Rizzit]

I would recommend Operations or Tech instead of Biotics because of animation delay in cover

[@Mammoth-o3z]

what training did you pick

[@hypertion]

There is a bonus that is useful in auxiliary systems in the tech tree... it makes using Tactical Cloak reset the cooldown of all other abilities, including TurboCharge every 15s. Its called Omni-Vents.. (its a 50% cooldown rebate)

[@achillesrodriguezxx3958]

This ain't playing on insanity difficulty, this is outright bullying the AI

[@LateNightGuidesGaming]

That is some insane damage!! I definitely have to try this out. Great video man. Keep it up.

[@Rizzit]

Thank you very much :)

[@Raszul]

The build seems nice and solid. I would like to recommend a single change for your build. Adding the Shield Oscillator Mod to you chest armor. Regaining 25% shields on each kill, with the rate at which you kill enemies, would be awesome.

[@Rizzit]

shields dont benefit from damage reduction

[@Raszul]

According to the sources I have read it seems that DR does apply to shields, but due to the fact that shields tend to be so low compared to HP, it just isn't as easily visible. Anyways - regaining 25% of your shields per kill is a benefit - regardless of the question if DR does or does not apply to shields.

[@Saintb101]

He is getting 100% shield recharge every time he uses Charge, regardless of whether its a kill or not. Shield Oscillator would be both redundant and ineffective, while replacing the most unique mod slot available.

[@hmrainwing]

Thanks for this video. Looks great! Keep up the good work.

[@pimpace]

LOL Dude, this is awesome! Congrats for all your findings!

[@rafiulamin2763]

I hope this wasn't nerfed in patch 1.10. I fell in love with Tactical Cloak while playing an Infiltrator build, and this has to be the best use of this ability. Mad props for the detailed guide

[@thedonisgoodable]

I'm pretty sure this is how the designers wanted this game to be played...

[@PeterHayduk]

Was a hell lot of fun to play. Thank you for the amazing build.

[@StarFlorge]

It's up the new video, i hope you like it. And congratulations btw.

[@Rizzit]

Wow I was not expecting this. Thanks man. I think you go in the right direction here your video is ridiculously fun to watch :)

[@ookorkyoo3841]

Wanted to say thanks, I made this build and ploughed through insanity in 1 night. That gun build is an absolute beast. Good job :D

[@mannysan6039]

Since Rizzit, despite his great tutorial, forgot to mention that this build can ONLY be achieved later in game. This means that you need to pour at least 10-15 hours first in order to start following this guide, otherwise you will get confused by all the modifications, research, materials, money and development that he shows in the video, but that you might not have yet. I would also recommend to get a much clearer info in the description.

[@mannysan6039]

Yes, that is also a crucial factor for this build to work as in the video.

[@phoenixevo87]

I'm not level 90+ yet (currently level 86), but this build still works ridiculously well. I added some tweaks for more raw damage such as: replacing charge with invasion for the beneficial debuff, picking the soldier profile for the incremental damage increase with each quick kill, and throwing more kinetic coils into a melee weapon of choice (I don't really melee much at all now). I can't speak for 90+ yet, but for level 86 everything still dies really quickly

[@mannysan6039]

So you switched to raw Soldier profile? Im currently using the Explorer profile Soldier/Tech/Adept hybrid and i already was using the invasion over Charge, as on insane difficulty you want to expose yourself to close combat as little as possible. @lv 83 here I like the evasion type on the Explorer profile as it makes you evade trough objects, but considering the bonus weapon damage and also incremental bonus damage on the raw Soldier profile, i might try it out.

[@samuraichilton]

15 hours in an open world (or semi open, I haven't played the game yet, it is downloading now) isn't much these days to get rolling.

[@syzygy2464]

the "say hello to my little friend" build

[@blackpanda7612]

Lol

[@infinitedesigns_io]

LEGIT AF!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@ecchidragon8038]

Awesomesauce build. Thank you very much for putting this up. :)

[@seylawaldron]

Love the build and great vid. Keep up the good work.

[@hakenaton9031]

Very impressive and look like a hell of fun! Well done!

[@Tromador]

I was wondering about an explorer build and came across this. Thanks very much. I will turn up the difficulty for my next NG+ and try this out.

[@shiva369]

Found my Insanity run build. Awesome work, man!

[@martiuscastle]

That is a real "tongue hanging mad face on" gaming, man! MAD! AWESOME!

[@Whippets]

The Piranha is just a sick weapon regardless (best shottie in the game, IMO) and I use it in a sentinel build that sometimes switches over to Andromeda Explorer --- singularity/incinerate, overload and warp. It made insanity relatively easy, although I'm not sure I could characterize it as totally Insanity OP. This build however does look pretty OP.

[@michaelaldan945]

well done, great build..it's people like you who do the hard work, and make it easy for us...great stuff !!

[@wolford171]

don't worry about the tech pronunciation. I still can't roll my Rs in spanish so whatever.

[@fatshinobi]

Amazing, this is gonna replace my remnant shotgun shield build. The pure damage is too much to resist.

[@bryanking9]

Greatest build man, played A lot to be able to make this build after seeing the video and I'm not disappointed at all

[@gavinf5155]

Great video, I'm gonna re-spec and switch to insanity as soon as I get off work

[@c.a.gregor1128]

I'm Subscriber #1000! Great Videos! Keep it up. :D

[@Rizzit]

I can't believe it 1000 Subscribers in 2 weeks is far above impressive :D Thank you video coming up soon ^^

[@daniellivingstone6540]

thanks for the build! definitely using for the hardest playthrough!

[@jslover761]

For the arms, legs, and helm you can add either tech recharge or combat recharge augments to help with your cooldowns

[@f.scottarmstrong8872]

Bloody righteous build! Looks like it's time for some serious ass kicking!

[@Olltymer]

This looks fun! Ill try out. Great vid!

[@Necrostrike]

Piranha has been OP since ME3 Multiplayer ;p. So has tactical cloak ;p, which is why everyone played infiltrator on platinum. Tactical cloak allows you to free fire without being charged by fiends or kett ascendants, taking the heat off you while you do damage, and allows you to safely rez your dumb squad mates when they go down after taking aggro. Tactical cloak even stops the attacks of an Architect on you while you freely take out its legs. Also, lol at Drack getting immediately bent over by the Destroyer.

[@Dontgankmeplx]

haha nice one i think you cracked it. This build is insane!

[@blackd6154]

And i thought playing ma3 with incendiary and concussive shot was cheesy. But that's just cruel. Love it.

[@mcavelli84]

Thotkin Rifle with Disruptor Ammo (seeks and destroys shields, I have a level 3 at level 34 and it's still kicking ass), Incinerate/Tactical Cloak/Energy Drain. Keep load out light and go for wide area of effect. Kills about as fast, although not as hardened in defenses but very adaptable ESPECIALLY since your double jumps are mini-cloaks and help in evasion, it's the infiltrator equivalent.

[@JoviaI1]

The bio-converter is seriously insane for this gun...

[@b1ackhawk89]

I have mine equipped with sticky grenades instead of the plasma bolts. It's safe to say everything goes BOOM at the end

[@EDDSXbox]

Used this complete insane in a day! You rock!

[@SciAntGaming]

Dude that is awesome! Now I'd like to see you combine this with the already OP perma invisibility build using Cloak and Fusion Mod of Adrenaline! :D I'm currently using the Dhan and Isharay and so I can keep the invisibility up all the time, but I'm only level 25 or 26 but I don't have the amazing DPS you have and need to use melee and guns to kill. At your level, all you need to do is add the Fusion Mod and you'll have a perma Charge and perma Invisi build with constantly high DPS, haha!

[@Rizzit]

Thank you bud :) Yeah I tried adrenaline but it is complicated, you have to keep track of your cd's or else turbocharge etc wont reload, then again I want to be able to defeat solo bosses as easy as trash mobs, adrenaline didnt make the cut for that.

[@joeyxl3456]

I had soooo much more fun with Andromeda than a lot of other so called top tier games. Finished Andromeda at least 3 times.

[@AdAce21]

This build is ridiculous.

[@johnr4906]

I was laughing so hard at how broken this build is. Excellent content!

[@Clutch628]

This is an amazing build. i had something similar but the small things make the difference. i was using the maxed out remnant chest armor to recharge shield/health. I'm gonnna respec and try this. Keep up the good work.looks good.

[@Bigtinycrawler]

I found this game very hard at the start. then I made all level 2 armour and did as much of this build as I could with 40 skill points and I smashed everythig. And I keep getting stronger. thank you

[@kam1l0]

So what training did u pick up at start ? Gr8 build btw ! :D

[@DarthXinn]

In what order would you spend points on this as your leveling it from like level 5? Also how soon can you get the weapon? Awesome build looks awesome

[@husleman]

To add even more OP to this build, get the FUSION MOD OF ADRENALINE and put it in your chest mod slot. This mod resets all cooldowns with every kill. You kill someone, you can immediately charge the next guy and then cloak and rinse and repeat.

[@Rizzit]

husleman I tried that you will have trouble vs boss mobs

[@hanzz9083]

gun: "give me ur blood to reload me"

[@GrandeJano]

Much respect for the build, man. Really well done! I have to say though that I dont see myself enjoying this playstyle for like 50+ hours. Its basically holding down mousebutton1 without having to aim or reload, right? No offense here at all. looks like one of the strongest builds ever made for MEA, but is it fun to play in the long run?

[@benjaminlouis3909]

Thank you Thank You I'm working on this build right now.

[@Alacalufe]

best build a i ever see, nice work

[@RuffRyder]

With twelve in the mag you may better off going with aerial performance optimizer rather than bio-converter on your pirhanha - 35% weapon damage while hovering (and combat tools lets you hover for ages while being more tanky). I like bio-converter on a dahn, not so much on a piranha.

[@PiMaC1985]

insane build, gotta try it

[@KazeMan]

Great Video!

[@CopyCatClint]

looks sweet gunna try it out

[@88AceLegend]

After rewatching this vid again i found that piranha gun is now not as good as the kett hesh shotgun when it has automatic build augment attached, also when you have bioconverter attached not only does it reload instantly when the clip depletes but it doesnt consume any of you ammo, making the gun unlimited ammo, also its damage is still very high but it has an advantage the piranha doesnt have, the hesh has double the rifiring rate making it dish out more shots an damage in a shorter time frame, i also use plasma seeking on my hesh gun plus some extra connetic coils for extra damage

[@revanentsoulgames9869]

nice idea. not how I finished my insanity run but it's a sound strategy

[@KhanhDinh291]

that missile ammo blueprint is absurd. pretty nullified the shotgun biggest weakness

[@Johnjohnson-zg4ek]

The combat system in this game is amazing.

[@tat2ddamon]

This build pairs well with the kett carfolon Melee weapon it refills a portion of your health on weapon strikes

[@James__Russell]

I wonder how well the Fusion Mod of Adrenaline would help with this assuming it works the way I think it does. Every kill you get would reset the cooldown on your powers even if they otherwise suffer a -50% recharge speed penalty so you could just constantly cycle the abilities as you rotate targets. Alternatively, if you don't want to rely on kills, there's a mod that gives +50% power recharge speed for -30% weapon damage that you can reduce to -15% with a cryo pod perk & that measly -15% is easily overcome by loading a melee weapon with damage augments.

[@mikhailsordinarylife]

Well now.. this vid is a great find!

[@bentmercer]

That's awesome, I'll give it a shot

[@koolstatue3592]

Thank you for this video

[@bossross8270]

Wish there were more armors to wear. Hope they'll patch some in or release some as free dlc.

[@andreastheshadow]

Tactical cloak, charge, energy drain, hurricane.

[@bugsylising3046]

Out of all the builds. This is the most effective

[@Orbinek]

and boring.. /yawn

[@lordrefrigeratorintercoole288]

thats the build im using, all you need though is to fully upgrade all passive powers in all biotic tech and combat...

[@skitzin283]

Fantastic build. Now if I can get the right armor pieces from this game...

[@okamiryuu1247]

Nice build ! I will try it ;)

[@christofferrasmussen6533]

Love the way you say piranja and mishanik ;)

[@marranatorgaming5614]

Remember when we let Garrus ascend to God hood as archangel in mass effect 3 with the Typhoon.... no? Me neither

[@hollowslave9656]

very nice. I'm using energy drain, incinerate and turbocharged. not dying at all and just ploughing through enemies. only on rank 3 of the gun as well so that will get increased significantly.

[@SimilakChild]

You are just like those pros on Anarchy Online.. they play a complete noob character and can max out damage with a mid level unique weapon.. doing basically what u described.. neat!

[@Rizzit]

Clay This is one of the best compliments ever :) thank you very much

[@allseeingsage214]

the Reegar Carbine says hi...

[@phoenixevo87]

Combine this with the fusion mod of adrenaline and you're quite literally unstoppable

[@READERSENPAII]

phoenixevo87 I can't find this fusion mod.. any recommendations on where to find one?

[@phoenixevo87]

Phillip Roc it would take me a while to explain all the steps, but it's on Havarl. Do a search for I video walk through which is what I did, believe me it's worth it for this build

[@scottcunni]

This is an awesome build. Better than what I'm running now with charge, turbo, I need to add tactical cloak over annilation. I like being able to go invisible to escape. Also the piaranna over the dhan but right now with no skills active my dhan damage is 1322

[@scottcunni]

1702 with turbo charge activated but I still may try the piarana

[@kyles6813]

Is there varying stages for this build from new, Med, to Final. About to pick it up and see what is out there. Being SG nut looks amazing.

[@minicute2234]

sounds like .50 cal but in a Shotgun goddamn

[@johnkang2000]

Finally someone who appreciates Piranha shotgun as much as I do... Pffft Dhan users.

[@marvinr5149]

Crazy build bro 👍🏽

[@juliomaldonado1000]

Good tips!!!!!👍🏼👍🏼💯👍🏼💯🎮

[@aaronboss7570]

I would add the heat inducer for extra damage when using fire ammo in exchange for one of the kinetic coils. There's also another that gives you a bigger clip when using special ammo, but I'm not sure if you can do both.

[@mascsam]

Very interesting hybrid build. I have a question regarding Turbocharge. You explained that you picked recharge speed over duration because the clip will finish before the duration of 12 seconds, but you are using the Bio-Converter and the clip never empties. Maybe I am missing something, explain to me if you have time please. Good job, keep coming up with more builds.

[@Uptibando]

holy shit this is OP as fuck at least the title was correct

[@Uimscared]

Hey Rizzit.. 1st. Awesome video and build. 2nd Im new to the game, and gonna start a toon now..... What training should i pick to go your build.. saw in your video you pick Explorer. does this mean I should pick Operative at start.

[@Rizzit]

Kjeld Jimmy Kotzebue Mortensen hello it does not matter you can respec on the tempest

[@Cypeq]

This is quite an obvious build, you can consider how much buffs are for melee damage around mods and skill trees so... you can build pretty much melee only build with nearly the same build. With assault rifle and high stability and little bit of aiming you will have similar consistent damage output w/o skill bursting. because you can headshot consistently.

[@daylee0855]

Do you recommend getting to a level where I could be this all together, or buying it bit by bit?

[@lucas-n-sb]

WTF... Epic!!

[@88AceLegend]

It sounds great to focus on shotguns due to their big power but there is one prob, its awesome for the first 1min or so if their auto augmented then your outta ammo thats why i only use remnant guns as main weaponry, still good vid though an nice build.

[@marii8ytb]

get a vintage heat sink or bioconverter and your problems are gone! I have 2 versions of piranha, one with each ammo augment, and both with seeking plasma. it's so much fun, I can kill anything. since piranha has a larger clip and I have +25% clip size on the shotgun tree the heatsink penalty isn't so bad. I only really need the bioconverter version when fighting architets.

[@Trikkeden1e]

Excellent!! merci à toi

[@karleenbergkotte2350]

loving this build ;)
