[1.1.9.7] DW Ranged Havoc Tactician - SR 90 / Callagadra / Ravager of Minds / Crate of Entertainment / Avatar of Mogdrogen

Hi everyone, long time no see :stuck_out_tongue: I was theorycrafting on ranged builds and searching for a range build I can play like melee and here it is, facetanking everything easily but damage is a bit low ofc.

PS: This is not a whole guide but merely a showcase

Hello there! Glad to see another build. Tactician is a very meh class in my opinion, I don’t like it very well but good job on the build.

Any leveling guide?

I play a very similar Tactician a while (before the re-mod Havoc recently), and yes- this concept is very good (a long side with my other favourite gun builds like physical or pierce Paladin/ vitality RF Oppressor/ Fire FS Purifier)



@fordprefect I really love your build, i think it got more damage than mine (with similar damage but more RR), and i couldn’t kill Calla with my own Tactician. And btw, my exp with Physical Stormspread is very bad, since each frags does very little damage (even worse than single normal hit), so i suggest you should get rid of it (unless you try to proc some devo with SS)

You mean, as a second gun to Mythical Havoc, and making Chilling Rounds the “dominant” WPS?

Yess!! Although I would love if some some better gear with higher dps than the warborn set was available but I couldn’t find any

I would say for Physical DW Ranged Tactician two (or three) pieces of Warborn are a “solid choice” - it has good skill support and the 2/4 and 3/4 completition bonus is also lovely.
Having said that, there is definitely an option to equip:
“Awakened Zolhan’s Battle Plate” (supports phys dmg, both Soldier WPS and the Awakened version has a lovely aura)
“Fleshwarped Casque” (green helm for War Cry cooldown redux, needs a good prefix and a good suffix, because natively, it has no phys dmg)
“Elite Bysmiel Dread Hood” (2x +3 to desired skills, phys dmg)
“Bloodbound Shoulderplates” (green shoulder with 2x +3 to desired skills, phys dmg)
“Mythical Dustbrawler’s Shoulderpads” (2x +2 to desired skills, phys dmg)
“Elite Coven Combatant Spaulders” (faction green, 2x +3 to desired skills, phys dmg)
