Crit chance looks low at first, but it goes up to 30% due to the High Caliber trait (10% increase while in melee range), while Hematic Focus (another 10% when foe is bleeding, which is procced with Sharpshooter) and No Scope (fury uptime) can potentially raise it to 60%.

There isn’t much condition removal in the build, but I’m hoping that the Hoelbrak runes, lemongrass, and the Adaptive Armor trait will make conditions less of a pain to deal with. Sigil of Cleansing should help as well.

I’m hoping the leap on hammer, stealth gyro, and superspeed access will offer disengage potential. I do have several concerns though:

1.) Hammer leap is 1000 range, but it consists of three leaps, so I’m worried it might be too slow for covering distance.

2.) Stealth gyro is still visible when you’re stealthed so it’s not going to help much for escaping. However, if you activate the gyro and then detonate the gyro immediately, it should still provide you with 4 sec of stealth (assuming you don’t damage anything with the detonation and reveal yourself). It’s not much, but with superspeed, you might be able to create some distance between yourself and the enemy.

3.) The 3 sec of superspeed from the Shocking Speed trait might not be enough to be of any use. Plus, the only lightning field is on a 24 sec CD. You have 5 sec of super speed from Slick Shoes toolbelt, but it’s also your only stunbreak. Juggernaut and Reactive Lenses might alleviate the need for a stunbreak, however.

Comments and criticism are welcome! Feel free to post your own builds as well.
