Title: Please help a newbie choose a build
Post by: DoctorCucumber on January 06, 2026, 10:51:29 pm

I've read a lot of threads and I really like the sniper/SMG and sniper/traps options.
Could you please suggest builds with similar options?
Oh and i forget i really love crafting )

Here's a pretty beginner friendly long-range Crossbow and Traps build that can stealth kill from traps and/or caltrops fairly well while being beginner friendly. It has good skill points for crafting a lot, and Crossbows can use all the crafting stats a lot in practice.

Some of the new changes aren't reflected on the character planner right now, like the existence of the Polymath feat (of which I didn't put any of those in the build though). There's other strong options you can take as feats for the build like psi feats, but I prioritized feats that help you use crafted Special Bolts and traps/caltrops better (like quick pockets' slots and pack rathound's carry capacity when using the Bolt Quiver item with a lot of traps and caltrops).

If you like SMG / Sniper Builds this one is pretty good, I'm pretty proud of it.

generally if you go traps you should go with crossbows, and use a trapper build, cause they work well with each other and have special feats for that combination.
