How do you soec your favorite character? I main Benedict and always choose the extra shield damage on rockets at rank 1, pushback with liftoff at 2, reload speed, and then I focus on increasing his burst damage with his homing rockets. At level 7 I can burst down a Montana at 3/4 health if all 8 rockets hit from his burst.

I couple this with gear to reduce his cool downs, increase his attack and health regen.
Here's a builder to experiment with if you're unsure

Mellka for max poison damage with shard generating gear, movement enhancing gear, and shield pen gear. Hit them with guerrilla tactics by peppering everyone with poison, dropping the spike on their heads, and then claw dashing in the air away so it sends me flying in their opposite direction so I can pepper them with some more poison fire while they slowly try to get out of the poison I put on the ground.
