Ohm I Got,
Sparky Shield,
Teen Witch, and
Energy Vampire. This will be achieved with a cool interaction, explained below!

Build Variants
The main version that plays into only shock damage.
Skill Tree






Since we are really playing into shock damage
Shocking Attunement and
Stormblessed are a no-brainer. However, since
Shocking Attunement will grant movement speed, we can also take
Hasty Fiends to further play into that.
Since we will need lifesteal for our
Teen Witch class mod,
Grave Thirst is a must. I'd also recommend taking 2 points into
Overprotective further get into the tree, and it makes it easy to keep overshields up.
We are going to want to keep
Incarnate up forever because of our augment
Energy Vampire chaining shock damage on top of everything else. We can do this by taking
Grave Sustenance so every kill we get will extend our duration of the action skill. It is worth noting that you can end
Incarnate early to preserve some action skill cooldown.
Our
Teen Witch class will grant us
Corporeal and
Conjunction which just means more damage for always having an overshield and energy shield up. This plays extremely well into our main interaction, which you can see below!
Equipment




For the main interaction, you will need a
Teen Witch class mod, a
Sparky Shield shield (with amp shot), and a
Ohm I Got submachine gun.
The way it works is that now your lifesteal will count towards shields and overshields because of the
Teen Witch. So keep in mind that you will permanently be at max health, shield, and overshield because of your lifesteal from
Grave Thirst.
This is where your
Ohm I Got comes in. Since you will have an overshield, it won't consume ammo or drain your energy shield. This, in return, will grant you a 50% damage bonus as well.
Finally, your
Sparky Shield wants your shield to drain to get its bonuses. This may seem impossible with the other gear, but if you roll an amp shot version, that amp will drain the shield procing the legendary effect. Since your
Teen Witch will then heal that drained shield, you can keep reprocing it over and over, chaining lightning while also still getting the benefits of the
Ohm I Got because you still technically have an energy shield and an overshield.
With all that working together, you will have a permanent damage buff, overshield, unlimited ammo, and can chain lightning everywhere.
For other gear, I would look out for an
Order Repkit since it can have two charges, and you want to roll an accelerator perk. This will make it very easy to get your
Incarnate back. For ordinance, it's honestly up to you, but if you have a penetrator
Jakobs Grenade it will work well for bossing, but it's not needed.
Maliwan Enhancement that provides status effect chance or damage is what you want. However, if you don't have one, just look out for basic stat increases to gun damage, crit damage, and SMG-related perks. I personally don't have a god roll yet, and it still performs very well.
Firmware





For firmware, there really isn't anything super important that plays into shock damage or status effect damage. So with that, I'd recommend just taking the classic three
Deadeye and two
Trickshot to grant a ton of critical hit damage.
Specialization
Bullet Train is super fun with this one since
Hasty Fiends and
Shocking Attunement is granting movement speed. You can essentially just run and gun without really having to aim with your
Ohm I Got and chain lightning everywhere.
Riddle You This is also a really easy damage buff you can get. You're going to be shooting all the time, so it's basically a free 50% damage increase.
Contamination is also great because you can apply your shock status effects more.
Now With Caffeine is arguably the best because when you pair it with your
Order Repkit with acceleration, you basically can get your
Incarnate back immediately.
