Heyho I try to translate Foreword: Striker needs to strike! All other thinks are secondary. If u can Strike BD@Hell u can strike everything.
1.) Attribute distribution: a.) Accuracy This is the most important Attribut! You should but evry posiple point in it.
Every point more in Accu brings u +2%CDB, only with this Attribute u can improve your dMG output.
b.) StrengthThe Main BD Strikeset give u the maximal feed, no other guns/set may have more StrFeed!
c.) StaminaONE Stamina gives u +5HitPoints, but take only us much StamPoints as u need for your gear
d.) WillpowerSame us Strengh, ur main BD-Strike-Set is your default.
Goal is around 600++ points in Accuracy, or 1500CDB.
2.) Weapons If u cant strike u are nothing, or at least not a striker.
To make a long and old story short, there are ONLY Cannonades for Strikers left!
No Bolters, Gatlings, Thors, HUS or Huris!
a.) BD-Strikeset-> 2x Cannonade:
Must Have Stats:
2x Splash 20-22% ; 1x Userate 7%+ ;
Nice Stats:Krit ; CCM - Demon/Nekro ; DmgTo - Demon/Nekro; Increase ; Decrease Powercost ;
UsefullSkillaugs:ExplosiveGrenade; Dronen Heal; Tactical-Mode ; Escape;
Bad augs/stats:All with more Strengh feed as your Equip gives you.
-> Mods for Cannoades:Splash (2x17% ideal); CCM Nekro/Demon; EleDmg
-> BD Splash RadiusYou just need around 80% Splash on StrikeSet for BD, more Splash is more Strengh Feed. And with to much Splash mods you miss mods with mor ccm/dmg on.
Ideal is: 2x 22%Splash on Cannos plus two mods each 17%. If 78% is to low for u, u can take the 5% archivement to get 83%.
b.) BossDmgSets2x Cannonade with CCM. CCM augs u need to reach Critcap.
Then ExplosiveGreande is the second important stat.
Userate, Crit next importen stats, then every other Dmg improve like CDB
3.) Equipment: Most importen Stat on Equip is userate! You should have around 30%+
Userate = "increase userate of tactical skills", the userate cap is 36%.
a.) HelmetMaverricks!
b.) ShouldersIf u need userate then:
i.) Asymetric Defenders! 4% -5% Userate
If you have around 30% userate then:
ii.) Engi Set Shoulders; 4% Amorepene
iii.)MiniSet; 2-4%Ele , 25%-45% CDB
iv.) Sues; 2% crit (Sues are the last choice!)
c.) Glovesi.) "Duellos of the Duelist"; 3% crit - with 12% userate aug!
ii.) EngiSet Gloves; 1-2% crit - with 12% userate aug!
until you have non of the apovewith userateaug then:
iii.) "Berks Ringers"; 1-2% crit 4-7% userate
d.) Boots"Grimsoles"; 2% crit, 4-5% userate
e.) TorsoIf u need userate:
i.) "Heros Hafshell", 4-5% userate, 12-15% Dmg to Demon
First take off Asymetrics then Heros. Heros i would only take off if you have without 34%+ userate
ii.) any Stat-Torso
f.) BeltMiniset Belt; 5-7% Userate, 5-9% Amorpene, 1-2% Krit.
g.) PantsNO Bughides!!
Any Stat-Pants
h.) DyeKit, Ring, ...Black Knight; Strenghen Darkmonach 3 Krit / 60-65CDB; Necklace 5 or 7AA ; "Bracelet of Brutality" 35Schildpene /Adds Dmg 5; Costuem 2-7AA ; CritPet 10%ccm / 5% Amorepene.
4.) Skills a.) Musthave SkillsSmackdown (7/7); Shock and Awe (7/7); Napalm Strike (7/7);
Haste Bot (10/10); Escape (3/7); PhasenGranade (10/10);Beacon (10/10)
For Haste Bot u can use ancastset to save Skillpoints.
Escape around 3 you need for parking the Messenger on BD.
b.) Bonus SkillsDrone ; Escape ;
c.) FAIL SkillsRocket Bot; Bomber Bot; Nano Bot ; Spider Mine;
5.) Perks i.) Surgial Precison-> 5% crit
ii.) Cruelity -> 14% DMG
iii.) Tranquility -> 260 Mana Regeneration
iv.) Affliction -> 28% EleAttack
v.) Improve WIllpower -> 180 mehr Mana
vi.) Toughnes ->140 Amore
vii.) Vigor -> 20% Sprint Cooldown
6.) Archivements i.) Krit 1% + 2%
ii.) Splashradius 3% + 5%
iii.) Attriubute 2x1AA, Stam/Accu/Str +5
iv.) Dmg to je Rasse 4% +8%
v.) Dmg 2x 2%
vi.) "Going around London" -> 20% MovementSpeed +1Sek Sprint Cooldown
(f.e. i use 1% crit; 2%crit; 5%Splash; Stam +5; Accu +5;)
7.) Drone My Drone is my Castle!Even on BD@Hell a good Drone can tank full Waves!
a.) Dronen Equip Skills:Gun Retrofit; Sword Retrofit; Amore Retrofit
b.) Drone Equipi.) Gun: "Yahtel's Fist" -> Armor 175
ii.) Sword: "Wart's Peg Leg" -> 160 Armor on+6 ; 188 Armor on +7; ...
ii.) Body Armore: Any Torso with a lot Amore (200+) AND HitPointBonus, then AA and Stamina augs.
GRD-SetTorso is nice, but not the best choice without HPB aug on it.
c.) Drone Ancast:Like Haste Bot you can use a "ancast set" for drone to save Skill points.
Ideal are 2x OnehandGuns with "Construct Drone 3" ; "Master Engineer 3" and "Haste Bot 3".
d.) Drone Hack:U need two Skill Retrainer, take first and but all Skill into the three Drone-Retrofits. This give you a lot of Attribute for equip the drone. After equip your drone, use second Skill Retrainer an take only us much Skillpoints into the Three Retrofits that u just have all activ. If you now call your drone, all Equip is in use. Every time u use now Attribute Retrainer, but all points in Stammina.
e.) Dronen Gameplay:Drone depends on how many Bonus Skillpoints u have, serious Engis should have all +20.
With Ancastset u should have MasterEngi and ConstructDrone 10/10, then u can but all left SkillPoints int "Medpak Retrofit". Drone Heal is very usefull to keep Party alife.
The next usefull DroneSkills would be Tactical /Advance Tactical Mode, it increase DroneHeal (but withou 1AS Helmet u dont will have Skills left for this).
8.) Dmg-Formula On the right Formula for Strike and Grenade i am still working, at moment its:
(((SkilDMG+Gun1)*0,6)+((SkilDMG+Gun2)*0,6))) * ( ele_multiplikator) * (dmg_multiplikator)
...but there are some problems with reality xD :3
Btw DmgTo and increase is still not first choice, but its works with Cannos (other then on Bolters). With +7 Cannos and without any more Crit or CCM on Cannos then MainEquip u can to BD@Hell solo, so keep in mind: Cannos are not just better Bolters!
....................................................end of line ................................................Hope its helpful for some to have an more up to date Guide.
And if you still life behind the moon and you use Bolters/Gatlings then watch this and think about:
That Kill ist Strike and Phasengrenade without extra explosive grenade stat on Cannos (three month old Vid - today i am stronger) and without multishoot
... just to prove a little that i know what i am talking about.
(even i am still a noob )
