Just managed to solo Capitol Building with this build. That's the third time I've managed to solo a legendary mission and this was by far the easiest time I've had.

Emiline's Guard is a somewhat overlooked weapon. It's a P90, when combined with the RoF and weapon handling boost from the armour, and with it's pretty good optimal range (21m), it's a very fun weapon to use. The regen from it also allows you to be aggressive, meaning you won't often find yourself pinned down.

The accuracy mod on Emeline's Guard is because 1) it allows you to make use of its optimal range and 2) You're gonna be at 55% crit chance and 115% crit damage (before obliterate stacks) anyway.

When you are pinned down, the Catharsis mask and drone will will save the day. The catharsis mask drops a cloud of healing (like the chem gun), so you need to stay in it. It'll give you enough time to get a kill and supercharge the regeneration.

Initially I made this build for Lexington, which is why it's in secondary. You need Lexington (or your favourite AR) if you're engaging at longer distances.

Obviously this is a stay in cover / throw decoy build, hence no shield. Specialisation I use is Gunner for AOK and extra reload speed when in cover.

I don't have max expertise on anything, the most I have is 20% on the weapons.

If you don't have Catharsis, you can also make use of the Nimble Holster, which gives you a lot of bonus armour (and healing?) when you do cover to cover moves.

Also it works for me on heroic content (incl retaliations) with Overdog Gloves but you do need to be a little more tactically aware (or just a better player than I).
