One thing you didn't mention that should be brought up. When you said 70% per hit, that applies to all 5 pellets. So, it's not 70% per shot, it's 70% chance of every pellet that hits. If you hit all five pellets, thats 5 chances of 70% to deal power surge per round. This means you are pretty much guaranteed to inflict power surge every single round.
@@P4wnyhof too much work 😅I still find I'm topping prime wars and dungeons with just the base stuff, 90% of the time anyhow because people don't test their mods and just use other people's opinions for facts 😅
If you can't buy the full 3 piece lonewolf yet you can mix in 2 piece of heavy duty to get 8% elemental for the time. The gas mask (which actually counts as helmet 😂) is really the most important piece to start with
There's a massive problem with the mask mod though. If you're in a group and someone else applies the surge status. You instantly lose the damage bonus from it
This Build is the first I tried in this game, and I am still using it. I don´t remember the Video I watched some weeks ago. There is a guy who found out, that there is a sweet spot for Crit-Rate (around70%). My gear has a base of 39% and with the Set going up to around 75%. The rest of my mods are focusing on Crit-Dmg Bonus and Status DMG.
@@P4wnyhof Ah, yes. I forgot the +15% Crit-Rate from the weapon. So I should reach 90% all together. Lot´s of room for me to optimize and balance the stats...if I can find good mods with the right stats :-)
4 Violent and 3 Talents suffix mods help boost both Crit DMG and Element DMG! Ideally, hope to get some mods with Magazine Capacity as well. I'm running 4 Lonewolf, Gas Mask Hood, and Renegade pants for +15% Reload Speed which helps.
The new mods with the suffix "resonance" from hard PVE servers PW, the Crit amplifier has crit and weakspot damage 1.3 % x10 and then there's a roll that has double crit/ status or elemental dmg !. Those mods are so good for PVE, likewise the battle suffix mods can be sick for PVP, so much dmg reduction. The mods next season are going to get crazy. Downside of this game is that it's hard to know what is going to happen on the server but so far it's pretty darn good, especially for free, there's a ton of content in this game.
@@P4wnyhofI have crit amplifier with crit and elemental (x2) both maxed gold and assists each other, same with deadshot, it rocks for corrosion (and jaws)!!!
Heavy style calibration also works if you want more uptime. If you’re using a fateful strike mod, crit rate + crit dmg or even double crit dmg calibration are very good since the base crit rate is already really high with the gas mask
Really like the content - but as a (not very good) solo player who struggles with farming silos/bosses and therefore rarely has these 'god' mods - is there something that works really well with lower / sub-optimal mods? And before you ask why I would play this game if I'm not very good, it's because I still do enjoy the farming and building etc. Keep up the good work!
i'm like you and pretty casual player. i can say this build is my first and only build so far and it is pretty nice. my mods are purple and boost crit dmg (not even sure exactly how much but they only purple). acs12 corrosion and socr outsider. game is much more enjoyable now that i can inflict dmg. i mean, it was fun before but now it is nice to not be wasting so much ammo and getting killed so often while just trying to get crystals and plastic.
Great vid! Really liking this build. How does this compare to a doom bringer build? Currently surge with outer space. Looking to switch to a shotty build. TIA
Wildfire procs 25% weapon damage when no other enemies are around. Great boss damage. Arguably better than anything else. When their is other enemies the bullseye spreads.. so win win. Also it you run targeted strike violent on your mask and mark enemies it's the highest damage you can get out of the build. Better than first electrocution.
range does matter especially when you're dealing with nightmare primewars (Manibus). With deviation Expert bullets won't even hit the monster, you always need to reposition yourself.
oh hey, this looks like something i can pivot to after using last valor shrapnel, since another build told me to get lone wolf and bastille pieces. just need more starchrom.

So does elemental damage, status damage and shock damage all work with instant power surge proc? This dividing is very confusing for me. Just found a good (imho) blue mod for body with 12% status as main stat and blue tier status in attribute alongside with green damage to great ones.
Can u make a video of a sniper build in hard server? I can easily take down the regenerating elite with my sniper rifle, but with my awp bingo + purple eagle setting isn't just working. So, I am kinda forced to use either shotgun or rifle to deal with those purple ones? But the bingo and the desert eagle just pairs perfectly. Is there any rifle or shotgun I could use which matches with the build? Cuz only things I see in silo hard are the purple ones. So annoying
I need help, I have been working on the MG4 Predator build, but should I look into this build instead? Please help, I am so confused and have only a limited amount of starchrom!
i find running 2 Resonace mods with crit=ele damage and ele=crit damage to work better but its mainly depends on substats had to repost accidentally deleted original comment when i went to edit it XD
I swear each weapon that was made is from a different person with a different perception on where the game is balanced around. Ow, I've tested this when a Mod and Set say "Hits" it means ANY of the bullets from SINGLE trigger hits the target and is counted as ONE hit. This also applies to DeadShot, if ANY of the bullets Crit regardless of how many pellets Crits, it's considered as 1 Crit Hit "Weapon Hits" also means "Ranged Weapon Hits", Baton can stack Celestial Shock but does not trigger the enhanced Shock effect
Whats the different between power surge and power surge status ? And how can you tell the different all i see is the lighting sign next to the dmg number.
@@OneTrue_Jonny power surge have 2 parts: 1) deal instant shock(elemental, surge) damage 2) apply debuff on enemies for -accuracy exception is corrosion which don't apply debuff and just does insta damage
Thanks for this, I'm excited to try it out! Been fiddling around with PS but ignoring shotguns. Question abt the Mask mod: Does the +% status damage actually work for power surge? I thought "status" was damage over time like burn & vortex. Thought you'd need straight +Ele for PS since it only deals damage on the initial hit.
Idk, for some reason I can't burst Trent boss and I can't break the bubble of shadow hound. The damage drop significantly 😢 when mob is too far even though I mvp usually in team, but going solo I have to switch to wild fire just to break hound bubble and near impossible to burst Trent down from the hill. If I am down I can burst it down to half before dying and need to use 1 adrenaline to finish it off.
Yes - I've been running this build for a few weeks. It wont work on Forsaken Giant and I found it a pain to run against Pro Wolf as well. It's also completely useless against Manibus 99% of the time since the arms are often outside the range of the pellets. For Blackfell runs, Purification, and pretty much everything else, it's great. it's also quite good in PVP Cargo Runs (on a PVE server) since most folks aren't built to tank any sort of status damage, though I assume this may be different on an actual PVP server.
@@coffeewithmilk563 I found it very hard to stay close enough to really do damage without constantly getting beat on by wolf. Is it doable, i'm sure it is, but its not a 'fun' weapon to use against it in my opinion.
Deffo a good gun but sometimes you can tell when something is too good and will be nerfed so I won't invest much into this build knowing it won't last. I rather stick to the good guns that seem closer to being balanced since they are less Likely to get a nerf so worth upgrading blueprints and such into other things than something u know will get a nerf and possibly become useless since do people really enjoy shotguns unless there broken?
This weapon is not so clear. There is a spread of bullets and if they all hit at close mid range, then crit damage increases all damage in general. But at a distance, many bullets miss and their damage decreases, unlike power surge, in this case, ps damage is better. And of course, need to test everything depending on the available mods, in my case, with fateful strike and crit boost mods do more damage.
The thing is... power surge has no drop off damage. As long as 1 bullet hits or 2 it will always proc power surge from a distance.. i shoot around 60 meters far with corossion and still deal 9k power surge damage this is a shotgun mind you. and it shoots fast like real fast.
@@lostme6034 A mix of both. the ratio of suffix must be 2 talent 4 violent. thats the golden spot. Deviation Expert with talent and for the chest piece flame resonance for status enhancement should be the sweet spot your looking for unless you use another chest mod in which case talents.
il tell you right now since i got this gun from day 1 since the game was released. it has already been nerfed. but the ammo consumption on shotgun ammo especially on how expensive the ammo is a down side as well.. i highly doubt they will nerf this shotty unlike doombringer it was just plain stupid broken
I liked your contents so far. Just please, if you're putting in PVP in your title, make sure u got PVP footage with it or other ways to show it.
