Gunlust - very plain and simple build (this is what i will be going with my first time most likely): Gunlust The main feature here are plain damage output, never needing to reload, no reliance on Gunzerker, some solo survivability.

Just click on one of the characters and then and then View Skill Tree and start unloading points 8 years ago.

The gunzerkers gunlust tree looks awesome though, cycling through guns without ever having to reload, straight dumping on fools like the lobby scene in The Matrix.

The turret stuff just seems super useful for a solo player like me.

With those sweet shield upgrades and the possibility of placing two sentry turrets at once that provide you with bullet, rocket and a shield cover that absorbs some of the incoming fire if youre positioned behind it.

Its pretty much just a skill tree choice and then go with that.

I suspect it will expand again though, with all the planned DLC.

On the positive side though the trees seem to actually really change playstyle quite a lot.

The Execute and Many Must Fall skills compliment each other nicely, and the Grim skill would make it faster to get back into Deception.

Giant OP phaselock ball ftw, wonder if bosses can be trapped in them, thatd be hilarious XD 8 years ago.

Giant OP phaselock ball ftw, wonder if bosses can be trapped in them, thatd be hilarious XD Unfortunately not, the description for phase lock says certain enemies (i.e.

Since Ill have Aishan shooting my face, hopefully I can focus on a heavy damage build without giving up too much survivability.

While this makes the trees a bit harder to theory craft with and harder to make definitive super perfect builds.

Also good to see every action skill have a whole boatload of modifiers that adjust how they function.

The first play through you are going to be in the 30s by the end so if only playing through once you just have enough to top out one tree, just like in the first game.

That first run will be spent getting all those points so the builds wont actually start fully functioning for a long time.

Trees seem unfinished and broken a bit in a few places, like Zer0s Killing Blow vs.

Iron Hand skills or that Deception bonus increases like crazy with each level.

Ares42: You can almost top out 2 skill trees at max level (example 2520) at the expense of not having the last class skills and one 5 point skill towards the end, but that can be played around with (like 2619).

SavageManLove: All classes seem quite adept at solo play if built correctly, with main factors for that i consider health and shield recharges.

Altho some builds of Maya and Zero might have a bit harder time with bosses, but be more powerful in the rest of the game.

So i did some builds centered mainly around solo play: Gunzerker Salvador Seems pretty clear cut basic play styles.

First is to have a constant firepower and staying power going while Gunzerkering is down, in the Gunlust tree its all about keeping it going and going in a straight up fight.

Secondly is Rampage centred builds focused on keeping Gunzerkering going as long as possible as frequently as possible.
