Beginner Armor Mods

Trickster Mods

The following mods are handpicked to be make the most out of the 3 of the first 4 Skills that a Trickster unlocks. This Mod set is dedicated for players who really want to get up close and personal with their tactics.

Temporal Blade

Cut Loose

Slasher

Slasher and Cut Loose both modify Temporal Blade, the former letting you use the skill one more time before initiating a cooldown and the latter reducing the skill cooldown itself.

Slow Trap

Thunder Dome

Weakening Zone

Slow Trap is already, in itself a decent skill; pair it with Thunder Dome and Weakening Zone, and you have a Skill that grants you Shield when it deactivates while inflicting Weakness on enemies caught in the zone.

Hunt The Prey

Dance of Death

Radiation Jump

Hunt the Prey is a useful skill when it comes to closing distances and executing quick assassinations. Modding it with Radiation Jump and Dance of Death make it a serious clutch skill when surrounded in a killbox formation.

Technomancer Mods

The following mods are handpicked to be make the most out of the 3 of the first 4 Skills that a Technomancer unlocks.

Cryo Turret

Bonus Duration

Hail Shot

As a support role, Cryo Turret is versatile when it comes to establishing crowd-control with its Freeze bullets. Bonus Duration gives your Skill more time to damage enemies before it initiates the Cooldown. While Hail Shot grants more damage that your turret can dish out.

Pain Launcher

Freeze Barrage

Rain of Pain

Pain Launcher allows you to damage large groups of enemies as you push with your position. Modding Freeze Barrage ensures that enemies that do not killed easily with Pain Launcher are inflicted with Freeze so you can sweep enemies while they are frozen.

Blighted Rounds

Trick Up The Sleeve

Spare Mag

Blighted Rounds is a Toxic-inducing Damage Skill. Modding it with Spare Mag allows you to an extra magazine of Blighted Rounds, while Trick Up The Sleeve lets you stock up on rounds with every kill you get while the skill is active.

Pyromancer Mods

The following mods are handpicked to be make the most out of the 3 of the first 4 Skills that a Pyromancer unlocks.

Heatwave

Irradiation Wave

Burnt-Out

The Pyromancer Class is reliant on the ability of a player to not only spam their Skills, but also to make the most of them. Heatwave is one of the basic skills that a Pyromancer learns. Modding it with Irradiation Wave and Burnt-Out makes it easier for you to eliminate enemies and activate your Healing Mechanic.

Feed the Flames

Anomaly Hunger

Nova

Feed the Flames allows you to Leech off health from enemies while temporarily stopping them in their tracks. Anomaly Hunger and Nova amplify the damage dealt and the skill range, respectively.

Thermal Bomb

Fire Frenzy

Wildfire

Thermal Bomb allows you to immobilize stronger enemies and detonating them to deal damage against surround enemies. Fire Frenzy allows you to use the skill twice before triggering a cooldown, while Wildfire inflicts Burn on every enemy caught in the blast radius.

Devastator Mods

The following mods are handpicked to be make the most out of the 3 of the first 4 Skills that a Devastator unlocks.

Earthquake

Blood Shock

Panzer Drain

Earthquake already damages and interrupts enemies in their tracks. Equipping Blood Shock also inflicts Bleed on enemies caught by the skill, while Panzer Drain strips enemies of 33% of their Armor.

Golem

Golem of Death

Bleeding Impulse

Golem gives us additional armor as we change into the heat of battle. Equipping Golem of Death makes the duration of the skill longer with every enemy killed while the skill is active, while Bleeding Impulse pulsates radial impulses while the skill is active, inflicting every enemy within a given radius with Bleed.

Gravity Leap
