    Intro:


    So basically, I got this idea from 2 posts on the GBX forum. The first post, being DaCheat's guide to the Supersonic Shock Trooper and the second post being Ahnenzorn's Infinite storm of Bullets build. The construction of this build will be similar, but different from the 2.

    We will be similar to the Super Sonic Trooper build in that we will use a Heavy Shock Trooper Com. However, I've opted to use a +6 Metal Storm, +5 Onslaught version as opposed to the +5/4/4 DaCheat recommends. I also use the Infinity, which he doesn't make much mention of.

    We will be similar to Ahnenzorns Infinite Storm of Bullets build in that our focus is boosting the fire rate of the infinity to insane levels. However, instead of opting for more Steady to get some Recoil Reduction and Rocket/Grenade Damage from our COM, I wanted movement speed from the onslaught skill. Plus it's fun to show off you can run faster than most of the other classes, especially those pesky Breakneck Banshee Sirens. :)

    This also isn't an Allegiance build. My focus is getting as high a fire-rate and movement speed as possible. I'm also trying as much DPS out of the Infinity as possible by increasing Fire rate to "quasi-evil smasher" levels. Therefore, I would consider this to be a PURE DPS build.

    Yes, Quasi-Evil Smasher is a word.

    Skill Point Allocation:


    http://www.bl2skills.com/commando.html#55155140015105515012105050130000

    Originally, I had an entirely different setup from my Explosive Axton build. However you will notice that this is the same skill set. The reason for that is that I've started to find I can switch out my Class mod from Legenday Soldier to Legendary Ranger and the other way around. This allow's me greater versatility of weapon types, skill buffs, etc.

    In general though, this build is pretty much still the same in terms of strengths and weaknesses:

    Build Strengths:
    -Massive Fire Rates(Puts an Infinity-Pistol Build Zero to shame)
    -High Movement speed(get a kill, and you can out maneuver most enemies. Better than Innervate ;) )

    Build Weaknesses:
    -Weak if Kill Skills aren't active(so raid bosses are a no go). Also, if you play with people that kill the enemies before you can, keeping the Kill Skills active is tough.
    -Ammo Consumption isn't an issue with the infinity, but for other weapons it can be a problem.


    Primary Weapon Choices:


    -Infinity Pistol. Optimally one with a 10.4 fire rate(Vengeful Infinity with Vladof Grip) with elements.
    -Slagga SMG
    -Hellfire SMG
    -Sandhawk SMG
    -Norfleet(I like Shock)
    -Unkempt Harold or a Plump Ogre

    I picked the Slagga because it comes with a high mag capacity. Once you hit high fire rate, it's kind of like a shotgun....But not.....what I like is the weapon's spread over time.

    The last two are optional. I use the Norfleet because it's a guranteed second wind. The Unkempt Harold is good with the Sheriff's Badge and both the Unkempt Harold and the Ogre are good with Metal Storm. While we are on the subject of Torgue, why not just throw the Swordsplosion in for good measure too.

    Primary Gear Choices:

    Shield: The Antagonist or Bee(The Bee is if you want to put Infinity Pistol Zero's to shame ;) )
    Grenade Mod: Magic Missle
    Relic: Sheriff's Badge or Bone of the Ancient's Relic
    COM: Legendary Ranger(+5 to Onslaught, Metal Storm, Impact, Ranger and Quick Charge)

    Basically, I don't like worrying to much about slagging my targets. I also don't like to switch weapons alot if I don't have to. So my goal was to create as many chances for spontaneous slag as possible. With this build, you can Slag with the Turrets, Antagonist Shield, and the Magic Missle. That way, you can keep the infinty out pretty much all the time. But if you want to, just gun them down traditionally(I mean, you do have the slagga).

    Optional Weapons:


    These weapons aren't really required, but i've heard they have high fire rates.
    And if you like farming, it could be fun to acquire them.

    Here is the list:
    -Chopper Assault Rifle(Up to 18.1 and fires 4 bullets per shot)
    -Shredifier(Up to 15.5 but trust me, 13-14.1 is plenty)
    -Stinger(11.4 Fire Rate with Ricocheting Bullets. However you will run out of ammo in 2 seconds.)
    -Skorry White Death/Lyuda(Machine Gun Sniping? Why not?)
    -Lascaux(Another SMG like the Slagga, but no element)
    -Stalker(Ricochets for Dayz!)
    -Ogre(Like the Shredifier, but better. Better because it blows stuff up.)
    -Lead Storm(Like the Shredifier and Hail has a baby and named it Lead Storm....)
    -Butcher(Make sure you get Practicable)
    -Any Vladof Weapons or Hyperion Shotguns. I bet the Lady fist or any pistol would work well with this setup.

    Ah, the Infinity Pistol. I know this is an incredibly old thread, but I love that gun. It's so good that it's unfair at times. :3
