Notes and Tactical Considerations[]

  • Due to the enemy armor reduction and knockback it employs, Rapid Fire is incredibly useful as a secondary attack, particularly against more powerful, higher damage enemies.
  • If another player is also in the game, an enemy being drawn by an Outlander and being held by the knockback of Rapid Fire is open to exploitation by slower, higher damage attack abilities from others, such as the Berserker's Raze.
  • The knockback bonus of Rapid Fire also stacks with the knockback bonus of weapons, possibly creating an "untouchable" build (that is, a build which can knock back bosses and other strong enemies highly effectively) if combined with a high knockback weapon the akimbo passive is helpful and can activate during shooting.
  • The use of shotgonnes with Rapid Fire is encouraged due to the short range of a shotgonne being countered by the independent range of Rapid Fire, but the damage reduction is a percentage and is dependent on the DPS of the weapon itself. Shotgonne Mastery can also boost the knockback.
  • Enemy units killed with Rapid Fire can be transformed in Shadowlings with Shadowling Ammo.
