Or start from scratch in the Character Build Planner and share your build.
Versatile low health build with weapon and armor options for damage, survival and tagging.
Really good XP gain with semi-decent survivability for fast leveling and completing season passes for a human.
Build for lvl 150+ full health human, vats crits every other shot, Western Spirit + Elders Mark
This build can raid, can daily, can solo most stuff. And the cold shoulder makes the snake a breeze. Still need to use reflective PA or some trick for ENO but explosive cold shoulder will even hold drill with ease. Shotguns have finally come into their own! Thanks Todd!!
Use pepper shaker on boss, ultracite laser on everything else. Tesla for tagging. All fusion cell-powered.
This is mostly Tiller's build, with some minor tweaks to help manage carry weight.
