The Carpetbomber (N7 Destroyer Build)

INTRO

There are three other Destroyer builds on the BBLoB, all of which talk about what the other builds do with Multi Frags and the Hawk. So, I figured I'd try rounding out the collection with a Devastatorless Destroyer, and it turned out pretty fun, if a little gimmicky. Ladies and Gentlemen... the Carpetbomber.

BUILD

Devastator Mode: No points. Not optimal, but here's our gimmick. One thing you should know about not having this up. You can dodge and move faster, making you more Drell, less Krogan. Keep this in mind while playing, and it'll increase your survivability a decent amount.

Missile Launcher: Take Damage and Force, Refire, and Hydras. Since we don't have Devastator mode up, we can afford lower shields due to higher mobility. With this up and full Fitness, you'll have 825 shields, just like a regular Human. You'll be fine, don't worry. Actually, you'll have 1150, which is more than a regular Human. (Thanks SimplyWaffle). Take Refire to be more Carpet, less Throw Rug, and Hydras for the same reason.

Multi-Frag Grenade: Double Force and Damage, and Grenade Count for the last evo. This'll throw 5 massively damaging grenades at a time. It's a great ability, and probably the best grenade power in the game.

Passives: Power Damage for the first two, then Weapon Damage. You don't care about cooldowns, so you don't need the weapon weight evo, and more damage is never bad. Fitness is full Defense, because he's crap at melee.

WEAPONS

Scorpion and Falcon, because gimmick. With these somewhat redundant babies, you are a true Carpetbomber. They're also both projectile weapons, meaning that direct hits with either will prime ammo effects. Multi-Frags detonate, so if you want to be weird and play a techsplosion based Destroyer, rock on.

GEAR

Grenade Capacity. You'll have 7 grenades, which is plenty. Don't play this with any other grenade users unless you want to be a jerk. The only other Gear I would use would be a Power Amp for the hell of it.

STRATEGY

It's all in the name. Bombs. Bombs everywhere. You're not as tanky as a normal Destroyer, but you're also more mobile, so use that to your advantage. You excel at spawn nuking and crowd control, so protect your other squadmates and clear out bunched up enemies. Pretty simple, actually.

CLOSING

I initially thought of this as a joke, but it's actually surprisingly fun and effective. Silver or below, this build wrecks, as long as you stay off Condor. Remember that you have to stay out of cover in order to let your missiles fire, so use soft cover and that kind of stuff. Have fun! Comments below always welcome.
