This build is designed for high survivability and damage when playing solo, even on harder difficulties. It uses the Heartbreaker gear set as its core, providing significant bonus armor and weapon damage when hitting pulsed enemies.
The Heartbreaker chest piece further boosts these bonuses. An Improvised Holster is included for an extra mod slot, often used for protection from elites. The Momento Exotic Backpack is crucial for solo play, offering powerful short-term and long-term buffs. Recommended skills include the Crusader Shield (benefiting from blue cores) and Smart Cover Reinforcer for extra bonus armor. Optimize stats for high critical chance, critical damage, and headshot damage.
