Not all Dead Eye builds are "squishy".......

I put together a Dead Eye build about a week ago and it's a little different from a lot of the posts I've been reading. I keep hearing, stack into firearms so you can do maximum damage from a distance because if someone gets in close, you're done. That's not entirely true. I've been able to hold my own in up close battles as well as being able to two shot people from a distance. Stats, Gear, and Weapons are listed below in a shorter version:

Primary - Covert SRS... Deadly, Competent, Prepared. Around 250K DPS

Secondary - MP7.... Deadly, Competent, Responsive. 311,000 DPS

Wreckless Chest

Specilized Backpack

Dead Eye gloves, mask, holster, and kneed pads. Health on the holster, crit damage where it's available.

All mods are firearms with health.

285,000 toughness and 120,000 skill power.

This build is extremely efficient from a distance and if I end up in a close quarter battle, the MP7 can hold it's own. Don't get me wrong, I lose 6 out of 10 close quarter battles but that's a lot better from what I've been hearing. Having Crit Damage rolled wherever is possible, drastically helps out the MP7's damage for close quarters. Having a semi-decent skill power number helps out with your Over Dose heal to extend your life time. My second ability is either a conceal pulse or mobile cover depending on the DZ Map location.

If you want further details, just ask.
