Hi guys Shikamaru X here, post June 23rd I have been trying out a couple of builds and this one has been one of the more successful builds.

Build:
FIREARMS--Chemical rounds--Pinpoint Distribution--Incendiary Powder

ALCHEMY--Protection Injection--Self Regulating Defences--HGH

Toosl-Reactive Lenses--Streamlined Kits--Adrenal Implant
(I take tools over inventions mainly because Mechanized Deployment is just really a powerful trait in this build).
Runes: Baltharaz
Sigils: Energy--optional Doom, Torment or Battle.

Amulet-Celestial you will constantly have stacks of might up and with have over 1k condi dmg which is enough. You can go Rabid but I find that the extra defense from cele really helps and when you have a couple stacks of might FT can do some ok dmg.

Also I have been facing alot of ele that run diamond skin and when I had the rabid ammy on it was driving me nuts that I could do nothing to them.

If enemy teams and multiple stealth classes I modify the build.
Alternate runes: Traveler and in traits take Analyze as Steamlined Kits is no longer needed.

Imo Traveler runes and quite decent 10% condi duration to all condi 15% boon duration and 25% movement it can really work well.
Weaps; PP, Utility Elixir S, FT, EG or Elixir U. Elite is Elixir X.
