This Way of Winter Conflicting Memories Shrapnel Build featuring the MG4 - Conflicting Memories capitalizes on its massive magazine to unleash a non-stop barrage of Shrapnel-filled chaos. After just 12 shots, Shrapnel triggers, dealing 50% Weapon DMG to random unhit parts. Thanks to its +40 magazine capacity, you’ll be spraying bullets for days, and every 15 rounds beyond 100 boosts Shrapnel DMG by 8%.

The strategy is simple: mark your enemies with the DE.50 Wildfire then swap to the MG4 - Conflicting Memories and hold down the trigger until everything in sight is dead or dying! With Mods like Shrapnel Souvenir to maintain your ammo and Quick Comeback for quick refills, you’ll rarely find yourself short on bullets (assuming you stocked up for this ammo-hungry build).

With Shrapnel procs firing every 12 shots, this setup is truly relentless! To really amp up the chaos, this build pairs perfectly with the Beret, letting you maximize those extra shrapnel hits and blanket the battlefield in destruction.

If you're dying of the cold, though, just stick with the Torch. There is no shame in it... Yes, really. You also could’ve been out there collecting those bear skins or feathers instead, though...
