Build Overview

Amon Anti Material Ordnance Knight Amon

Ever thought to yourself "Man guns and such are cool but Id love to actually be throwing massive spears made of lightning!"

Of course you have. That's why you're playing Amon.

Amon has more ordnance support available than he really needs to be completely honest. He also has melee support. Would be pretty crazy if you were able to leverage both of those themes in one build right? Lots and lots of SOUP for you to enjoy. Something the Soupless Wonder can certainly appreciate.

Shatterwight and Slippy are the stars of the show here. Cuz guess what? The COM's legendary effect applies to your Stormlance spears as well. Yes, those extremely spammable augments that can crit and trigger 2 Double Dipped DOTs at once? Yeah were gonna add a whole bunch of soup to them through firmware and skill tree by adding melee to their available buffs.

On top of that Shatterwight comes with a static Cryo Damage roll which will buff Tail of the Comet.

So what does that mean? You have constant uptime on 2 different forms of ordnance, both of which are strong and spammable.

Making matters even better for Amon is the fact that these Stormlance spears are both Ordnance and Skill Damage. Meaning they have access to Fragmentation Payload and A Honed Mind . These 2 specializations in combo can drastically increase the damage of anything they're applying to in tandem.

Gameplay Loop

Gameplay loop is simple! Use Scourge to start throwing your spears. While its up anybody unfortunate enough to get hit by your Zeus impression will regret the life choices that led them to fighting you that day. Even if they survive the blow they'll likely be incapacitated shortly by 1 of 2 (or both) of the DOTs Amon can apply.

Do this until your action skill runs out. You'll note there's 0 investment in action skill duration or cooldown - and yet the build has NO issues in mobbing. That's because as soon as your action skill is up you can begin abusing a Triple Bypass and Now With Caffeine to reduce your cooldown to almost nothing.

Utilities

Maliwan DOT

Using the same tech leveraged in my DOT shot build you can get away with minimal investment in guns while still having a DPS option for the few seconds of downtime.

What this little bit of gun investment will do is cover the small bit of downtime in between action skills while you slam your repkits and Now With Caffeine. Your weapons are not going to set any records here but they'll do just enough to allow you to keep the murder train going while your Fish and Spears recharge. A Triple Bypass for AS recharge and a 3 charge Slippy with 3/3 Machinist are enough to spam ordnance in at least 80% of mobbing encounters. Naturally strong weapons pick up the little bit of slack.

50% soup for your fish and 60% total for your Spears.

This is just what I picked but TBH its flexible. You could go GOOJFC or Gadget Ahoy for more cooldown on your abilities.

Specialization

Specialization 1A Honed Mind

Specialization 2Now With Caffeine

Specialization 3Fragmentation Payload

Specialization 4The Best Defense

Fragmentation Payload is a big buff to crit damage you deal. Especially when you have Skill Crit in play. It more or less adds a 1.5* to your skill crit value.

Now With Caffeine mitigates the long cooldown we haven't invested in at all.

The Best Defense for all damage

Honed Point is flexible but helps get bigger Blackout procs on spears which in turn gives bigger Electrical Fire DOTs too.
