Assault Rifle/Devices/Munitions Thematic Blaster Build

[AustinSmith]

Figured I'd throw this build up on the forums for others to use as a reference. AR/ and Munitions Mastery aren't popular, or powerful sets, but if you want to make a Punisher-type character wading through mountains of brass and every heavy armament known to CoH, this build might be for you.

 

Highlights are perma-hasten by +5'ing the recharge IOs in hasten, and 45% ranged defense (yes, calculating being attacked with Field Operative). Enjoy!

I started out with that build set. Nothing wrong with it at all. ONE DAY Munition will get its love.. 

I love AR Device..  Pulling out 2 gun drones is pretty cool and with enough recharge ( or BURNOUT ) sometimes 3..

Glad to see this. I'm levelling up an AR/MC blaster,  currently lvl 22 in the First Ward.  I've been going back and forth between Buckshot and M-30 grenade.  So far still have Buckshot for the KD vs KB.  Someday I might swap that out, but for now, good to see every single Assault Rifle power I have selected is in your build. 

[Chelsea Rorec]

My favourite blaster is my AR/Dev.

If you see Katie Hawk say hi 🙂

47% ranged def and i didn't take tough or weave. 😛
