User talk:99.183.172.218/Liquid Death

Preferred Gear

 * Sub-Machine Guns with good elemental damage. Ammo regen is nice to have. A scope is also a plus.
 * Mercenary Class Mod with + elemental % chance, and SMG damage. Or ammo regen if you don't have a gun with it.
 * Transfusion Grenade Mod
 * High shield value Shield, preferably Muscleman.
 * Shock, Corrosive or Fire Artifact

Explanation of Equipment
Controller tree gives you healing/shield regen as well as daze. Transfusion grenades are used to heal if you need it. All of the other skills help to do damage. This build will have high accuracy, bullet damage, and elemental effect %.

Strategy
Basically, just point and shoot. This build will turn any elemental SMG into an instrument of "liquid death." You'll go around setting everything on fire, covered in acid, shocked. Enemies will be dazed as well, which really helps with the Eridian guardians later on. With a scope and high accuracy/bullet speed/re, you'll be able to snipe with your SMG better than Mordecai with sniper rifles.

Use your special when you get low and heal up.

Pros

 * Survivability because of Controller tree skills.
 * Your DPS will completely blow any other class out of the water. With faster run speed from phase walk, you will clear levels before Brick ca
 * Hard To Get and Blackout keep your Phasewalk fresh and allow for constant healing and Phase Strikes when needed, as well as the quick getaway dash if things get desperate.
 * Elemental damage over time... everywhere.

Cons

 * You will kill things so fast that your teammates will become annoyed that they are no longer doing anything.
 * Sometimes you will run out of ammo even with an ammo regen gun and have to *gasp* pick up ammo. :(
