NGL tired of people showing clips of devourer, boss is ez af, I want to see someone melt Frost Walker to prove their build is actually strong...

Don't rely on hair being white. There is a bug so if you get teleported (by boss mechanic or any other means) you revert to non-frenzied but your hair stays white. Best to look at the green icon if it looks like a head with regular pony tail you are Not frenzied.

To note for those that didn't get it.
While he said that he's not using the Python for the perk, it's because the ability that shreds DEF and the like with Prey DOES NOT TRIGGER when using Massacre.
I do not believe any of the Ultimate Weapon abilities can trigger with Massacre. Thus you need to look at raw stats when comparing the weapons (but the Ultimates do have an edge in terms of Reactors when paired, as Massacre does get boosted by Skill modifiers on top of taking in everything else the gun was built up).

I would also add, like with Saintone's original guide, your secondary weapon is best off being a Hand Cannot for the innate high Crit Rate.
This is so that you can easily trigger Blood and Iron to get blood orb stacks to use Massacre when needed.
One of the best options for this is Nazeistra's Devotion. This Ultimate Weapon has higher Crit than the Perforator. Making it better for getting those resources.
It also has a useful ability. Removing a large chunk of DEF from the enemy when hitting a weakpoint that your whole team can capitalize on for the couple seconds it is up.
Gley also doesn't have the downside of accidentally wasting 85 MP per shot if you hit a teammate (that only restores a paltry 12% Shield....) because she doesn't have MP and thus cannot trigger the bad part of the ability.

Your 3rd slot is flex, which honestly could be a Vestigial Organ for when you don't want to setup your Infinite Massacre and just want to blast things mindlessly.
But it could be anything really.

As Gley doesn't have amazing AoE skills, the Thunder Cage is always a fan favorite for it great mob clearing ability. Easy to farm and max out its ability too for 100% uptime on its AoE's.

i’ve been waiting for this 😈 need something new over Rocket gley

[itswhatDEXTER]

Was literally farming Ultimate Gley and Python materials last night to try this out and first thing I see today is a full on build guide for it lmao I saw the Pythons fire rate and thought "what if I run the infinite ammo Gley build with this absolute ripper paired with fire rate mods. Gotta try it"

[schall]

you can farm the reactor in steril land anticipated ambush really good farm spot for kuiper, gold and analyzers/Breakers in hard mode

[Satallizer]

watched you melting with this while you were live the other night. Great work man.

[spacewalkervenus]

Tonight!!!! I got my blood and iron today! Hyped!

[SKY-nuow]

replace iron will with Massive Sanguification it will make ur secend skill gave 3 orbes when ever u want no need to crit it is so comftobale

[MrLebistus]

Maximize duration reduces the dmg of your 4th ability. Also there’s a gley mod where you can just pop 1st skill to gain 3 life orbs on the get go

[bbmack]

I been waiting for the vids for any hard mode kill under a min

[crazedmonku]

ult grey is bugged right now. The issue "masscare says every 10% hp lost, you get more skill power. for Ult Grey it only kicks it at 50% hp and its won't keep scaling the lower you go. Normal Gley gets a power boost as stated in the description every 10% hp lost. You can test yourself if you have normal gley and ult gley. go to lab. Pop Massacre, fire 1 shot every time you reduce your hp. at 50% massive power spike. now heal up to full. fire shot. you will see for ult gley you get the same numbers until 50% hp, while normal gley keeps scaling. I would bring this to peoples attention and submit a bug report. I just tested this myself, i would like it if other people could confirm what im seeing to make sure im not missing something

[HerMaiz]

I feel like a complete idiot when using Gley i HAVE BEEN USING GER ABILITES WRONG thanks for this video now i know how to mod her and use her for everything

[oscarolsson]

FInally i see someone else using Eternal Willpower over Tamer, amazing gun

[ttvnevada]

People saying he paid his way to the build but the thing is you can’t buy levels so he still needed to grind the levels to even put the specific module sockets on the guns and character and as for the upgrade socket modules it’s not hard to get them if you know how to farm them right

[yardie]

he says you dont need much for this build but blood and iron is mad far into the game so good luck if your trying this build to get past hard mode bosses

[Aphesia]

I'm running a similar build. But why not run Massive Sanguification instead? It gives you 3 blood of life on demand (at the cost of health) therefore eliminating the need to hit crits shots to build blood of life stacks. You have more control over when you can use your Massacre ability. 👍

[blackyvertigo]

Note that you can do this with a thunder cage as well if you have already been spending a ton of time on resetting that weapon. It’s 300 rpm lower and you would build more for crit but there is a 32 second kill of hard devourer by an Ajax with the weapon video out there.

[jiddkk]

Just wanted to ask, are you aware that your Reactor is not upgraded?
You are missing out on pure SkillPower there.

[LordDragos]

Should definitely do a updatw build since the first season has come out
