My build, any tips?

[Jaypeg]

Hey, 

so ive been playing for a while now but never really looked into the RPG side of things, I've been doing some tinkering for PVE and was wondering if my stats are good or could be improved , any advice is appreciated. 

Dps 267kToughness 490kSkill 105kLVOAC- vicious, deadly, destructive4pc striker, savage gloves, specialised back pack.Chc 32.5% not incl savageChd 96%Headshot 81%Enemy arm damage 63%Armour mitigation 54%Im enjoying my build but wandering if I should swap my vest for Barrett's and drop my savage?  Or use savage and barretts and swap specialised ( but loose my skill power)?

Cheers , Jay?

I think what you have is a pretty solid tank build.  I'm partial to specialized packs, but I've played Lex like 70+ times and have gotten hundreds of field caches and have yet to get a Barrett's chest.  I'd sugget you try swapping the striker chest for the Barrett chest and the specialized pack for a striker pack then do the same swap for the savage gloves and keep the specialized pack.  Hit the range with all three builds, run some PvE and PvP and take notes. Once you're done review your notes and go with the one that feels best and works with your playstyle.

Thanks for taking the time to reply, makes sense to swap out and see how each plays.  As for the Barrett chest, I lost count how many lex runs I did....Im after some predator knee pads with a fairly decent roll but no such luck... it's like it knows?

The Pred Tank I'm working on needs better pads and pack, if I remember right both have electronics rolled on them and I want them rolled for stamina.

Just got to keep on farming ... I took your advice and did some tests, sticking with Barrett and specialised for the moment. Nice LWM4 at the vendor which I managed to get deadly on(with vicious and destructive). It was my last roll as well, phew!!! Pushed my enemy armour damage up as well so happy days.
