Sooooo...that Torque Bow build didn't get patched out. More so, we're learning more and more about how the weapon swap concept works on more than just the Toruqe Bow!

In this episode, it's the Scorcher. Now this one's more close range and dangerous, so I had a harder time nailing this one down. We were trying this on Forge, Clocktower, and other close quarters maps and if you can find good angles to burn and safely take cover (Canals, Foundation, Command, Turbine, etc) it can DESTROY anything.

But like...you destroy every boss with one active scorcher hit and the weapon swap. Carriers, Matriarch, and Snatchers had no hope in this match. If you can land a hit on a Kestral, it'll work there too!

The hardest part I had with this build was staying safe, and dealing with the scorcher active. You have to make sure you have your active bar ready to go, swap to a flashbang, THEN active reload, then go in and burn. Otherwise, the non-active scorcher damage doesn't apply the burn and the build doesn't work. It takes a little bit of practice to get it rolling effectively.

OH, and make sure to throw some fire on the ground because enemies WILL walk into it and you can just keep your breaker mace out in cover and watch as enemies insta-die!

OH OH, the card build doesn't really matter that much lol. Like...blunt instruments is needed, stim siphon is helpful, and the rest of the cards are also here.

More coming soon!
