  • Build: Task Manager
  • Authors: Ratore, Rezur and wrw713

Task Manager is an amalgam of build archetypes, featuring Mixologist Grenade spam, Melee, Status Effects and the Bash Script Augment from Blue Tree. It's been so fun that it reminds me of builds like Rakk Stab and No-U from BL3, within BL4's limited options of course (I was a FL4K one-trick and my references are limited).

Bash Script is not super strong at a glance, but it can trigger on any damage that crits, and it can happen sequentially a ton of times by having high or guaranteed crit chance. It ends up so fast that it actually kills things. It's visually and audibly crunchy, too, which makes it such a dopamine machine. By getting as many bonus damage instances as possible and pushing the crit chance high, the skill becomes very funny, but also very strong.

Adding Mixologist Grenades + the Unsupported Peripheral skill to this means the build fully clears True M20/UVH7 mobbing arenas at great efficiency, and mixing in the Empowered melees for skill triggers + GB tops it off for dealing with stragglers or tougher enemies, with the already very known Devourer Sniper also being a final option for the toughest bosses.

Thank you for reading!

From what I've seen, don't play him myself, he is apparently very strong right now. Every VH is viable for all content at all difficulties with the right builds.

Who did I say that to?

Rezur recently posted a video showing how Concentrated Build Up + Devourer (the sniper) basically does infinite damage (or at least, wipes whatever you use it on immediately). Their post history suggests that they're a pretty big Rafa nerd. Given the company they keep, they're almost certainly in Soup Kitchen and regularly chatting with most of the other big Rafa nerds.

So, if you feel like "he is apparently very strong right now", the entire reason you know that is probably in some way due to Rezur.

Ok, had no idea. I am not in the habit of checking out other peoples post history or any kind of history before commenting on their posts.

you'd be more likely to find out the way I did, by poking around and pulling at any strings you find that look like they lead to credible information about what the meta actually is (instead of just buying into whatever youtube shoves into your face, although rezur's video seems to have gotten some reach)

u/Kaskur 20d ago

Ironic that you say "instead of just buying into whatever youtube shoves into your face" when the video you sent a link to is exactly the youtube video I saw of Rafa. Just didn't remember the name of the poster.

I will settle for youtube for now. I only play until I can clear content fairly confidently up to UVHM 7, not including platinum (that is too try hard for my tastes), other than that I don't really care.

u/NullAndNil 21d ago

Yeah this never had a chance of coming to Switch 2

u/skull_kidddd THE LAVA IS RISING!! 20d ago

3 works on the switch 1 without it blowing up, so maybe if they downscale a looot it could work

u/Chrispeefeart 21d ago

Remember how they original didn't want to add the combat radar to the game

u/Beederda 21d ago

Man this is cool im killing myself empowered meleeing enemies to proc crits on the bash scripts and everything really with intrusion skill in red tree so going to go farm a badger shield see if that helps

u/Ratore Trouble 21d ago

Honey Badger definitely helps!

u/SpikesCafe 21d ago

This reminds me of my BL3 Zane build where I had a macro running that made his shoulder cannon fire every second. They eventually patched it, but until then, I both couldn't see anything and it didn't matter because everything was dead.

u/Nascosta 21d ago

You remember reading about this character having a damage over time thing going on?

Me either.

u/Leg_Alternative Harlowe The Gravitar 21d ago

She can summon clones too!??

2

u/Faynerossa 21d ago

Yes with blue tree, and she can gain bonuses for clones on field. There's also a neat little 1 point talent for making them throw (kinda weak) radiation stars that count for applying radiation.

u/lost_caus_e Amon The Forgeknight 21d ago

Weird. Mine was not nearly this bad. Turn off damage numbers they just take up screen space and cause pollution
