DSOD Goliath Stoic Build
By gunars
(This build is still good, but i learned that silencers dont make a difference. 500h experience for the win. I made a bit better build and idk to update it but this build is still amazing.)

Made a guide about a similar build that turned out to be pretty bad. This is an updated version that kicks more ass, and survives for longer.

You will need to be:

-Infamy II
-Level 100

Perk Deck
Perk deck is going to be stoic, its litterally in the title.
Skills
Pretty usual stoic skills, couldn't find a way to fit iron-man basic in here, but if u think some skill is useless then you can try to fit it in.

  • Didn't get confident aced, cause personally i think saving 2 points is more important then one meat-shield that can sometimes protect you. And you still get all the benefits of HP regen and the 30% HP up from having a joker.

  • Low blow aced cause you can't get under 5 detection with Goliaths and a LBV.

  • Optical Illusions aced to get under 25 concealment.

  • Akimbo aced cause the Goliath ammo pool isn't that great. The weapon has amazing ammo pickup rates so you could switch it out for something else. (Couldnt get iron-man basic by refunding it)
Weapons
Primary

Akimbo Goliath 12G Shotguns

  • 000 Buckshot
  • Short Barrel
  • The Silent Killer Supressor
  • Concealment Boost
  • Compact Laser Module


Secondary

The Judge Shotgun

  • HE Round
  • The Silent Killer Supressor
  • Accuracy Up Boost
  • Compact Laser Module

Melee

Buzzer

Tips&Tricks

  • Use the Goliaths as your primary, it shreds crowds, kills dozers fast, and can kill people from a decent range.

  • Use the Judge against shields, snipers, captain winters and SWAT turrets.

  • Use buzzer to get a joker, or if you run out of ammo while shooting at a running cloaker.
Inventory


Armor - Light Ballistic Vest

Equipment - First Aid Kits

Throwable - Stoic's Hip Flask


Tips&Tricks

  • Bind your throwable key to something that is easy to press, i have it binded to my mouse's side button.

  • Use a first-aid kit if you're not sure if you can survive, or if you're on very low hp while your flask is still charging.

  • Don't forget to give first-aid kits to your teammates if they ask for one.

I like the build! the reason why silencers don't make a difference is because it doesn't have The Professional from ghost tree, which isn't a problem tbh

good build, tested it on counterfet one down and it works

idk man just doesn't seem like a big enough issue since as far as i can tell they act basically the same. of course, none of what I said really matters anyway since melee is mostly super situational for this build.

Buzzers first hit is way faster, theres no point in using the EBK cause charge doesnt matter at all.

honestly don't see the purpose of the buzzer when the electrical brass knuckles do the same thing with a faster charge time. The other stats are the same but the EBK charges in 2 seconds as opposed to the buzzer's 3.5.

For the concealment, accuracy doesnt matter that much on shotguns, and stability doesnt matter cause the goliaths are burst guns

I’m curious why you have the short barrel on the Akimbo Goliaths. What’s the point of reducing the range and accuracy?
