DESCRIPTION

A simple yet highly effective Dungeon DPS build revolving around a focus attack during Elemental Force. This build also works well in the New York Raid.

SITUATIONAL Abilities

Lock, Stock & Barrel

By either replacing scatter shot or Deadly aim or Breaching shot (if someone else provides these buffs) you can use Lock, Stock & Barrel to increase your single target DPS.

12 Gauge

This passive applies debilitate to your target, if your group is having trouble with the damage output of a certain boss and neither your tank or healer is already providing the group with this amazing debuff you can do your team and wallet a favor by slotting this instead of closer.

HOW IT WORKS

DPS builds in general focus on boosting their consumers as much as possible.

This specific Elemental Force build super-charges Shootout in order to achieve great numbers.

The rotation is fairly simple:

Striker x5
Auxiliary weapon attack/Striker x1
Out for a Kill x1
Shootout x1 (Elemental Force)
