Build Overview

Gun Gal Vex!

True UVH7 Sub & Thol Platinum (Bleed KS Gal)

This is a Vex gun build that offers many flexible options and approaches that can suit your preferred style of gunplay. Bleed or no bleed, kill skills or no kill skills, Incarnate, Dead Ringer. Pick your poison.

  • Many thanks to LazyData, Iserrot and all Soup Kitchen friends that theorycraft on Vex.
  • Further thanks to LazyData for his optimization and help in buildcrafting Kill Skill Vex.

Gun Gal IncarnateDead Ringer

  • Includes variant: Rainbow Gal

These variants abdicate most kill skills in favor of stacking passive damage boosts to hit big numbers without needing to play around Mortal Terror. Their focus is on bursty kinetic damage and Bloodletter, but any kinetic weaponry is valid, from the slow and precise to the fast-firing, or any mix of the two.

Kill Skill Gal IncarnateDead Ringer

  • Includes variant: Bleed KS Gal

The kill skill variants have indisputably higher peaks, and can essentially use any good gun in the game without restrictions. They are, however, less bursty in terms of upfront damage, being instead DPS and ramp-up focused.

Strengths And Weaknesses

  • High baseline damage
  • High one-shot potential
  • Weapon variety
  • Kill Skill variants
  • Incarnate & Dead Ringer variants
  • Lower weapon variety on the non-Kill Skill variants

Build Variants

This Kill Skill Gal variant focuses on Bloodletter, maximizing damage per hit rather than full-on DPS through fire rate skills, though we still take those where we can get them.

The fast weaponry and high amount of damage instances result in effective trigger rates of Mortal Terror, guaranteeing excellent kill skill uptimes and DPS.

The Blood Shot one-point wonder allows for skill damage access on any shot, enabling some quick boss bursts and potential one-shots.

  • Any good gun is usable for mobbing, just be mindful that of course not everything will have good Mortal Terror trigger rates for bossing.

Flexible Points

Always have at the very least 1 point in Grave Sustenance.

I don't recommend going 0/3 Guns and Needles, try to always have at least 1 point in it, unless you very specifically know what you are doing.

  • Repkit bonuses are very powerful, especially Fire Rate from War Paint in the case of this build. Having consistent access to them is a great benefit.

The points in Guns and Needles, Idle Hands and Grave Sustenance can be played around with depending on your gun setup and which activities you intend to do. The build above is just a general-purpose setup.

You could have points in Phase Pocket instead, for example, which can allows certain guns a lot more wiggle room for Witchy Trigger Finger ammo refills, or even max out Leeching Attunement for a little more damage out of Blood Is Power if holding kinetic guns.

Action SkillIncarnateDead Ringer

Witchy Trigger Finger and Vibe Check

  • Witchy Trigger Finger is a massive QOL that lets many reloads be skipped, and also provides some nice gun damage.
  • Vibe Check quickly stacks Witchy Trigger Finger.
  • You have the option of using Grave Harvest if you want incarnate mobbing uptime to be better.

Vexcalation

Guns and Needles

  • More frequent repkit usage makes everything smoother. Can cooldown our repkits even while they're active, causing them to be ready to use whenever their effects end.

Grave Sights, Grave Implements,Grave Power and Mortal Terror

  • Massive accuracy and damage boosts from kill skills that cover all needs of the On-Hit part of the damage formula. Grave Sights is a natural double dip for bleed crit, while Grave Implements can feed it more skill damage through I Am A Gun.
  • Mortal Terror is an essential skill for sustaining kill skill stacks against bosses.

Bloodletter, Material Components and Ars Arcana

  • Bleed provides a significant amount of added damage. Since we can hit bleed stack cap quickly, we want to boost our impact and bleed damage as much as possible.
  • Material Components and Ars Arcana are significant bleed damage boosts.

Keen Mind

  • Enables bleed crits.

Essence Leech, Blood Is Power and Teen Witch

  • Blood Is Power and lifesteal investments result in a very large Kinetic Bonus Element. The Teen Witch COM will add a further 10% that gets tripled into the bonus element, and any more you get from kills if it has a Grave Thirst roll.

The Fourth Seal

Idle Hands

  • Great DPS boost for a very low cost, and easy to maintain.

Here Comes Trouble

Grave Sustenance

  • Very effective for Incarnate uptime through Mortal Terror and kills.

Gameplay

Pop your Repkit of choice and slaughter! It cannot be more straighforward. Aim for crits where feasible to maximize your Mortal Terror triggers.

Get a feel for the good guns. Some will be great at both bossing and mobbing, while others may be good at only one the two things.
