Build Overview

This is a an incredibly strong, DOT focused Amon Ordnance build designed to set up one shots on every single boss in the game. It will however require some knowledge of the character. This is NOT a beginner build.

Please watch the attached video for the full list of items & more. It is very important, and required to understand the loadout.

5/5

A few notes regarding our skill tree:

We take Tritanium Knuckles in red because it buffs Tail of the Comet in Blue
We take 3/3 Gut Punch in red for higher consistency, something we typically would not do
In blue, we go directly to Primal Surge to free up our class mod to the Icebringer, which allows us to get 10/10 Tail of the Comet
We use Cryonic Thrum for the bonus Cryo damage it gives us when we ADS with our Maliwan Heavy Weapon
We are going with Into the Fray in Red, but ONLY UNTIL Gearbox fix Blackout - When they do, remove the points we put, and go 5/5 there.

Utilities

For our classmod, we will be running the ICEBRINGER purple com for Amon, with hopes we get at least 3 points into Tail of the Comet which will give us an incredible amount of Damage Over Time, of which this build revolves around.

Bonus points if the passives on your class mod boost Gun Damage, All Damage Dealt, or Elemental Damage
Additionally, points into Wrath of Nature are a nice touch if you can.

With our Maliwan Enhancement, any purple enhancement will do, but make sure you get Gun Damage, and Splash Damage, as when talking about Enhancement Splash specifically, our DOT Damage will benefit from it. Just MAKE SURE you are holding any Splash weapon to make this work. In my case, I hold on to a Kickballer, but any will do.

If your Maliwan Heavy Weapon does NOT have two shot and MIRV, you will see a major decrease in damage with this build. Also make sure you are not running the proxy tracking augment, as this will break the interaction with High Caliber

That said, the Ordnance in particular we want is called the Hailspike, most preferably a Shock version, and Fire for Flesh Bosses such as Backhive

If you cannot find the Hailspike, I would recommend the Monsoon launchers as a backup, again in Shock or Fire

For our Rep Kit, we specifically want any Kit with AMP on it, which in our case will be one of the biggest increases in damage we can get, leading to the 'one shot' - so to speak. This is a must have.

For our Firmware, it is crucial that we use the full 3 High Caliber set, allowing us to double dip into MIRV projectiles on hit. Without this, we quite literally lose 100% of our damage, if not more.

For the second Firmware, we take 2 into Airstrike for extra splash radius and damage.
