It's time, Ladies & Wamen (and Apache Helicopters) to get yo dab on!
Dark here with another episode of "Your Build is Gahhhbage", now complete with an appropriate New York accent. Today's build is so sick that it will get your Krogan Merc laid before you can say, "These are broken, send some more". On a side note, I was pleasantly surprised at the lack of retarderation present in the previous episode... but I digress. Now, let's discuss just how.. *clears throat* flammen this build is! Lit emoji, lit emoji, hundred percent:
Krogan Mercenary: Flamethrower - LOL Fortify - 4A or 4B/5A or 5B/6A or 6B Flak Cannon - 4B/5A/6B Munitions Training - 4B/5B/6A Rage - 4A/5A/6A or 6B
Notes: Flamethrower - While this is a good power, it slows you down far too much and takes away from survivability. It also gives the user the illusion of having skill due to the fake points accumulated in Rank 6B. If you use Flamethrower beyond rank 3 (I could see some logic in forgoing rank 6 in Fortify), you might as well be this retarderdarded (https://youtu.be/7ryG6sGiBmc) Fortify - I take 4B, because I'm addicted to movement speed just like the devs for this game are addicted to finding new ways to fuck up their own game and kill it. (<-- insert sarcasm here for the mentally challenged). Personally on Rank 5 I like the acc/stab bonus because I use Siphon weapons, but those who don't have a Siphon Hurricane or Rozerad may prefer the extra regen delay reduction. Flak Cannon - The whole point of this build is to take 10 Flaks minimum into every game. Especially on Platinum, if paired with a Batarian scrapper, the KroMerc can be especially deadly. What really makes Flak amazing is 5A, and 6B. 5B serves zero purpose. If your argument for stun is to stun enemies on Platinum, have fun with your 20+ minute Platinum runs. Munitions Training - Self-explanatory. Best offensive passive tree in the game. Rage - I prefer 6B on Rage, but this works well both ways.
TL;DR - If you use Flamethrower, you are disrespecting wamen and probably need the fake points to boost your stats.
All of the jokes and offensive comments are 100% not intended to be taken seriously, but some life forms who read this forum also spend time on here in other sections talking about sex scenes in the single player mode and may not be the most adept at reading sarcasm through text. 1 like of this post = 1 respect of a wamen.

Lol. YOUR BUILD IS GAHHHBAGE!
Basically you have weaker version of batarian with this build.
Krogan Mercenary is universal killing machine! And you managed to skip flame and melee. Why the f.. do you need shields? I can understand flamethrower as you still can get smth with 1 point and it's probably not worth go all the way up for armour when you have flaks, but shields?
Another no fun build.

Saying this is weaker than the Batarian is saying the Kromerc kit is garbage but it doesn't say anything about the build. I'd keep Flamethrower at 1 as well if I wanted to play betond Silver as well. Fortification is a bit do-whatever-you-want-with-it, though, Darxtryder?

I'm not judging the people who use it, but this kit offends me.
The very idea of a Krogan using a short-range fire power when any enemy would similarly be in range to bash them with your face. What kind of Krogan chooses something other than bashing the enemy with their face? Blaspheme.

Personally I enjoy the Flamethrower on Platinum. You can laugh at me for score-whoring or you can laugh at the flaming corpses of the dead enemies. It's good CC and good anti-armor on a difficulty where you need both.
Fortification is a badly designed power because it's so front loaded at rank 1. Every rank beyond that gives diminishing returns compared to what you could get in another tree. And if I'm not taking Fortification beyond 1 rank, then obviously those points go into Flamethrower.

The problem for me with Fortification is I MUST take it to 4 for mobility. I find without it that I (a) go insane at how slow I am, and ( get separated from my team pretty easily and then get randomly overwhelmed sometimes.

Jump-dash everywhere. Fortification doesn't affect that.
You can also turn it off when you need to, like when carrying a package.

Meh.
Flak, puff with flame thrower, start shooting to build up 6A munition stacks to boost the 2 armor killing DoTs. Flamethrower is not optimal for armor shredding only because it cancels out cold based armor debuffs, otherwise it's functional armor killing in platinum.
Also it's nice when your host is laggy and there are 2-3 saboteurs with a trillion of dogs in front of you

How can you disrespect Flamethrower like that? didn't you read the buff in the 1.09 patch notes?
Flamethrower: Increased the direct damage per second from 240 to 250 Increased the burning damage over time from 120 to 130 per second
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Biggest problem I have with flamethrower is a complete lack of synergy when paired with scrapper (which are quite common now as they ARE great). Cancelling out absolutely amazing armor debuff that makes zerkers and hydras into pushovers with flamer is just wrong.
And yes, at the moment I see very little reason to bring merc over scrapper in platinum. In gold the kit has great synergy with 'flak the far crap, headbutt everything that gets close" with permanent rage, in platinum not so much.

Flamethrower - LOLFortify - 4A or 4B/5A or 5B/6A or 6BFlak Cannon - 4B/5A/6BMunitions Training - 4B/5B/6ARage - 4A/5A/6A or 6B
Not sure this really qualifies as a build. To summarize: "Don't use Flamethrower. For the two no-brainer skills, use the no-brainer evos. For everything else, either choose A or B." Sage advice.

These build threads are garbage. We need quality posters like we had back in the day with detailed builds to actually help people instead of being condescending about a co-op video game.

I must be the only one but I think killabkilledb's builds are at least interesting enough. It's a shame that people like Geitenneuker turned their back on the game though...

You have a good point; details really help. On the other hand, I always find it interesting when someone explains why they used a specific power build combination. Usually I learn something, even if I don't agree with it. Style of delivery is unique to each writer; I respect other's attempts at humor, even if I don't find them funny. (It's hard to write interesting stuff, you know?)
