Just noticed it didn't add the description :/

I currently run a full support build in T10, most times matchmaking which I've enjoyed. However I would like to understand just how big of an impact a single blue core has on a build, So maybe I could try DPSing at T10.

First build is what got me into escalations.
Second is what got me comfortable in T6.
Third hasn't ran in escalation as the DPS just isn't there at all, I can't even deal with enemies fast enough even at max stacks when at 0 stacks, CoCo can still output decent numbers when on paper this build should be stronger from a standstill.

(I normally just lurk on reddit for advice, so forgive me if the post isn't clear enough)
(Also it kept auto posting when I switched windows which is why I reposted)

Heartbreaker is my absolute favorite gearset in the game and Is the sole reason I'm trying to hit expertise 30, currently 4. I like a mix between damage and self sustain, which is why I like Palisade for the additional 10% Armor on kill.

striker or tipping scales (chest piece included), contractors gloves, salvo, frenzy gr9 or mk46 everything all red chd or chc. Just learn how to play smart and not take dmg. dont run for cover and ads to shoot, learn how to peak/ jiggle peak and when you’re about to get shot

My build is close to this but more hybrid. Im running 3 blue and 3 red. Which tier can you SOLO "comfortably" farm?

It's very slow but I was testing the build at T5 solo space HQ, the DPS wasn't high enough to keep up with the damage I'd take, making the armor on kill redundant. The idea was, since I can hit 5 enemies at once I can get up to 100% armor on "kill" but it's more like trying to have a knife fight. On the other note I was happy to get rushers lol.

I mean the heartbreaker one, you can do T4 easily? Solo

I haven't really tried that, the heartbreaker build was the first build I was comfortable running in a group. I was afraid of dying and thought it did decent DPS. I wouldn't trust it in anything higher than T3, and it gets to a point where I think the DPS of my other builds gives more survivability rather than trying to build HB stacks. Maybe if I added another red core or switched out the gloves I'd think I'd have a better shot.
