    Lol, sorry. I assumed people would find out about it eventually. And when they do.. I, for whatever childish reason, want to be able to say "hey, check out my forum post, i did that since the beginning".

    Lol.

    Silly question - is the Swarm Cannon different from the Mass Cannon? I have a Swarm and it sounds like the same thing. BTW, thanks for the build, I'm going to have to respec to try it but look forward to it.

    Quick answer: The swarm cannon won't dish out as much consistent damage because of the way it functions.

    The swarm cannon is unreliable. With the mass cannon, you can detonate it right above their head and be able to hit them with all 4 bombs EVERY time if you aim it properly. With the swarm cannon you kinda have to rely on a bit of chance, and the blast radius is kinda big from them.. so you're not getting full dmg.

    Makes sense, thanks - going to have to look for a Mass Cannon then, don't recall seeing one in a while.

    There are really only three things to actually use brain-power for in Defiance:

    Which perks to get (which requires some strategic, logistic, and mathematical know-how, but not much)
    Which weapon to use to go with those perks
    And finally, how to use the combination of the aforementioned in combat

    My post is, from a logistics and strategic standpoint, a way to maximize the potential of all 3 of those, without wasting perk slots. Most people consider the perks to be very small, insignificant bonuses. This post reflects how significant they can actually be towards a build.

    Thats far from truth. U just wrote DECENT loadout. In certain situations it can does high dmg, but its overal mediocre.

    You claim its situational.. but I havn't found a situation where it doesn't deal its full potential damage all the time. What situation would prevent it from doing so? Even vs bosses of instances it deals huge damage.
