Assassin Master List: Build Collection

Thanks to Mirrorada for originally doing this.

If you have a build you wish to have added to the OP please list the following when submitting your build:

Manufacturer: (name of manu.)
OR
Type: (Gun (and type), Melee, Misc/Boss)
Name and link:
Level of build: (please list if it is OP 8 compatible)
Specific Gear needed: Yes or No

Builds are broken down by their primary function. However, this does not mean that a build under the “Pure DPS” tag is ONLY a DPS build. The tags are set up so that we can organize builds based on what their biggest strength is. This should make it easier for people to find a build archetype that they want to play with.

All builds are property of their original creators.

Get your Build added!

You MUST have a thread or Google document dedicated to your build.

  1. A link to YOUR dedicated thread or write up on your build.
  2. Your Builds Name. If you haven’t come up with a name yet, it’s O.K. This is optional.
  3. What type of build is this?
  • Is it pure DPS?
  • Is it a boss farming build or one for a specific boss fight?
  • Take a look at the different categories and pick which one best describes your build.
  • What level is it for 50? 61? for leveling?
  • If you’ve made it to this step, CONGRATULATIONS! No really, Thank you for reading this far.

##Tips and Tricks for an AWESOME build write up

Here are a few key things to have on your dedicated page, thread or document for your build.

  • Have either a screen shot or a link to a skill calculator with the build set up.
  • Describe what the build is intended for.
  • If your build requires or is dependent on a certain gear set up, list needed gear items, and if you can how to acquire said items.
  • Be descriptive. The more information you provide about your build, the better. Describe why you’ve chosen the skills you have, why the gear or weapons you have listed are a ‘Must Have’, even videos of the build in action. Anything helps people make a better informed decision on your build and if it’s something they might like to try.

@Sun_Tsunami you’re proficient with melee Zer0, is your build or a similar one posted here already?

Yes it is. I follow Altair’s generic melee build (w/bore) and load out. Actually, she is the one I followed on Twitch and studied her gameplay to become a better Zero player. I don’t think she is still involved with the BL2 forum.
