Intro
The build works on the DOMINATING difficulty. SMG builds are as of Feb 2018 one of the most powerful.
We use crafting extensively for the additional versatility and actually good items. Vendor items are

Base attributes discussion
- Dexterity: Put 10 at character creation. Either level up to 15 and use Eel Sandwitches for combat. See below for the the attribute's importance.
- Intelligence: Either start at 6 for the [[[Eel Sandwitch]] variation, or 7 and end up with 16 [[[Dexterity]]] as per above.
Feats to avoid
These feats look beneficial, but only superficially. There are too many good feats to use one of these.
- Aimed Shot: It's only used for a Plasma Pistol sidearm with Critical Power. Postpone till late-mid game.
- Rapid Fire: We're focusing on burst fire AP cost. See below.
- Point Shot: Reasons as per above two feats.
- Suppressive Fire: Debatable. May help with kiting HP-sponge on the DOMINATING difficulty, but Nimble works too.
Important feats
- Spec Ops: Lowers Burst cost from 3x single-shot cost to 2x single-shot cost. With this feat and 16 Dexterity, 3 bursts per turn (before additional modifiers) are a reality. This is before Adrenaline Shot which itself is heavily recommended.
- Commando: Allows for yet another burst per turn, provided any enemy died during aforementioned three bursts.
- Sprint: Necessary despite lack of direct combat utility. See section below.
- Expertise: Increases damage a ton in mid- to late-game. Overall SMG damage is low. At level 12 with example average damage of 20, the increase is a bit over fifty percent.
