    Snipers and heavy damagers, talk to me.

    It never fails, when I'm grinding for a skill build, DPS stuff drops all over the place. lol

    In the past couple days, I have picked up a bunch of Providence and Airaldi. Enough to equip three pieces of either or both with all 95% or better rolls. Most are actually 100% rolls. All good red attributes as well.

    What's the build I'm looking for? Three of each just screams sniper build to me.

    Headhunter.

    I personally go (2)Airaldi, Providence, W&H, Punch Drunk & Fox's though.

    I'm thinking I need to start on my sharp shooter specialization. One of my boosted toons has 165 points in the tree but I hate to use a boosted toon because they get no achievements. But then again, I already have most achievements that I can get solo. Sooo.... lol

    I also had a Skill version. You just need enough Headshot rolls to allow a White Death to one shot a Red, then you're off to the races, while having tier 5 or 6 skills.

    You need to play more, have four agents, all maxed out. All with good skill and DPS builds.
    Doesn't really matter who I choose when logging in, They all rock.

    Just a note, MM builds are very situational, nightmare in closed quartered missions......better of going for a rifle build (minus the airaldi though), lots of fun and some serious dps.

    Well main talents that i remember for long range sniping is either Glass cannon (i mean it works for everyone who wants to be a glass cannon), Headhunter if you want to focus on headshot only, Focus if you want to cause big damage even if hitting the body but will be stuck for long range. Out of personal prefference between these three i just focus on Glass cannon and Focus, headhunter is by no mean bad just personal prefference

    I play enough. lol

    I bought the game in season 3 and have 310 hours. Anything more would seem silly to me. Not that it's bad if others play more but I just can't.

    I have two other toons that I boosted to 30 and took them through Warlords to get 40. They're all sufficiently strong. I can log on to any of them and farm level 3 CPs if needed. I was doing all the daily and weekly stuff with them but got bored of that stuff.

    I have a couple god rolled Perfect Glass Cannon chests. Might look at that.

    I use Punch Drunk, Memento, Chainkiller, 2x Airaldi and 1x Belstone (with blue core) all rolled headshot/regen, except for Chainkiller which is stuck with CHD for now. Weapons are White Death with Preservation, M870 with Preservation and Liberty. Skills are Pulse and Bulwark shield. It uses all 3 weapons often, so it's not exactly a sniper build, but if you like to mix it up in the moment it's fun to play with. You're probably better off switching to Tip of the Spear for 4 man legendary though.

    I'll record a video to show you how it plays out in a bit and reply back.
