Enzo Guide
By Cherrytarrt (Yams).
Keep in mind that this is an expensive and arguably unreasonable build, but it performs well for the role it fills.
The build is centered around Perfect Support, Supply Tactical Armor (transcendent mod), and Nazeistra’s Devotion (Not Needed).
Perfect Support provides:
- Ammo every 1.5 second interval
- 20% firearm attack increase
- 20% crit hit rate
- +10% reload speed modifier
Supply Tactical Armor provides 15% dmg reduction and 20% movement speed to all allies whenever you apply a buff to a single all–irrespective of their range.
Nazeistra’s Devotion restores 10% at the cost of your MP whenever you shoot an ally. Do not need if you have Multi-Talented.
Whenever you use Perfect Support, shoot an ally with Nazeistra’s Devotion, or an ally runs through Start Supply, it will grant everyone Supply Tactical Armor.
With Multi-Talented:
(Antibody is a flex spot for resistances, but you have enough capacity to put any mod in there. Can max out with higher mastery rank or putting forma on skill slot):
Alternatively, you can scale your shield instead of health with Increased Shield and HP Conversion (Shield), and abuse Enhance Combat Suit, which restores 25% Shield on use and 6% at each interval. The short cooldowns, duration, and MP recovery enable constant use. Arguably better than health build.
Note: You need the appropriate component rolls to make this work, .e.g., max shield as primary stat, max shield as secondary on processor, and bravery 2 set.
Without Multi-Talented:
Keep in mind that Supply Tactical Armor CHANGES his passive ability. It will no longer increase ammo capacity. However, Perfect Support and Supply Tactical Armor will have 100% uptime with Multi-Talented Build. Ammo is not an issue.
Note: For Multi-Talented, you need to activate Explosive Drone or Enhance Combat Suit BEFORE Perfect Support. The timing for this can be buggy. You need to wait until the drone fires out and explodes before recasting; otherwise, it won’t recast and will put it on cooldown or attempt to apply a second drone and bug out.
Multi-Talented and/or Maximize Duration, Skill Extension, Nimble Fingers and MP Conversion to increase uptime of Perfect Support and Supply Tactical Armor..
If you run Multi-Talented, you do not need Maximum Duration unless you don’t have the correct rolls on your Reactor.
Maximum Duration and Maximize Conservation will reduce the damage of your Perfect Support Drone to 0%. It doesn’t really do damage anyway. It will reduce the damage of Explosive Drone, but not significantly enough to consider another option and it still does decent damage. Alternatively, you can run Strong Mentality in the Multi-Talented build instead of Maximize Conservation so Perfect Support can still do damage.
Skill Expansion or Amplification Control can be used to increase range for Perfect Support. If you played Enzo before, you know the base range is bad. This helps for Colossi if you do not have a static and are not in comms to make call outs.
Increased Health and Increased Defense for survival. Maybe Increased Shield can replace Increased Health with how often you can activate Enhance Combat Suit. Haven’t tested.
The empty slot will be a dedicated flex spot for Resistances. Outside of Colossi, you can run Battle of Stamina for increased health and duration–not needed with Multi-talented. Focus mods will be difficult to optimize with this build and likely will exist in another build.
Important (MP Efficiency)
Since you are casting your abilities so often, MP becomes a concern. I initially used Increase Mana and MP Collector, but found it underwhelming for Colossi–not surprisingly. I found MP Recovery In Combat on the sensor component and MP recovery on the memory component.
I decided to run Energy Collection to scale the MP Recovery In Combat further.
MP Recovery Modifier on the memory component is additive with Energy Collection, providing as little more scaling to MP Recovery in Combat.
I also added Maximize Conservation for some skill cost reduction at the cost of % skill modifier, which is not relevant for this build as stated above. All of this combined provides INSANE MP efficiency. Again, you can run Strong Mentality in the Multi-Talented build instead of Maximize Conservation so Perfect Support can still do damage.
Note: When you take damage, mp recovery in combat will momentarily stop, but it does not substantially affect uptime as you will begin recovering in a second or so. It only becomes an issue when you continually take damage.
While Energy Collection might be overkill, it’s beneficial for boss fights and frequent ability casting. The key takeaway is that MP Recovery In Combat is amazing.
Equipment
I don’t believe any of the current tier-sets for the components are good for Enzo. I am running 2 set Annihilation Auxiliary Power (probably don’t need this if you run Maximize Duration) for the duration and 2 set Bravery for max shield. Another option could be Tomb Guard for the defense. You can also use drop Annihilation for components that can roll Max Shield as a primary stat if you are running shield build.
For the Reactor, you mainly are looking for duration and skill cooldown rolls. If you don’t have these rolls, you can run Maximum Duration to hit 100% uptime for Perfect Support. You can run non-attribute and dimensional to increase damage of Explosive Drone. As you start to play around with the build more, you might find there to be flexibility in these rolls. Maybe you will want cost reduction or range. Test to see what work.
Outside of Nazeistra’s Devotion, this build will likely use whatever is BIS and will flex depending on content. I may consider using Divine Punishment, but I don’t think Enzo can get full value out of the ability. Restored Relic is also a good option for the team-wide firearm damage. This can synergize with Divine Punishment. I will eventually provide builds for weapons. Probably best to just run Tamer and Glow Sword or something.
This build is a work in progress, but I feel the core is very strong. It is fundamentally a team oriented build since you cannot proc Supply Tactical Armor without an ally. If you play with a dedicated team, they might be able to get away with more dmg mods as they will be utilizing your provided mitigation and evasiveness. If power scaling becomes high, this build may become obsolete.
Supply Firearm Enhancer (Super Endgame)
I want to try Supply Firearm Enhancer–this replaces Start Supply. Since Start Supply is effectively useless with 100% uptime on Perfect Support. This is a good alternative to Supply Tactical Armor, especially if you have a static or a team in comms that is aware of when you drop Supply Firearm Enhancer No duration to the buff. You lose the buff on weapon swap or reload. Lasts for your current magazine. This can turn Enzo into a weapon platform. Might be best solo build. You can easily solo Devour with this mod.
The crit multiplies your FINAL crit chance (The last picture is with Perfect Support active).
Focus Fire Enzo Build
Focus Fire is a little more interesting than what I thought. It increases your Explosive Drone stacks to 4 from 2, and changes Perfect Support considerably (see image below). Of note, it increases your skill power by 3.8% of your Max Shield, and its duration is increased by 0.4s for each firearm crit. This does not put the drone on allies anymore.
I am working within the limitations of my mod sockets from the other build, but this is what I have been testing. You do not need skill duration (firearm crits increase duration), but some cooldown is still required for 100% uptime of Focus Fire. In non-boss content, you might not be able to get enough crits to achieve 100% uptime, so feel free to use duration if you want. The damage isn’t amazing, but it is a fun solo build. Perhaps, the damage can be scaled even more but you would sacrifice MP efficiency, which you will need as you will be spamming Explosive Drone and will want to cast Enhance Combat Suit whenever needed, and survivability. I am continuing to use shield over health as it proves really strong from the support build and has the additional synergy with Focus Fire. Iron Defense can be replaced with Amplification Control for more shield and some range. Can run Multitalented over Strong Mentality for more damage. You will be using it for the singular skill effect as opposed to the dimension skill effect. Can run MP Collector over Energy Collection depending on content.
Mess around and fun with it. Lmk if you find some good changes to this build. More to come on equipment. Probably similar to other build.
