This is a balanced build for the Jäger 45, improving on recoil control and movement stats. For the Akimbo setup, you can do away with improving ADS speed and focusing on tempering hipfire spread instead.

This Velox 5.7 build focuses on movement speed with some improvement to recoil control, making it an accurate run-and-gun burst weapon. For the Akimbo build, we chose to improve its hipfire spread since it won't need ADS in this state.
