This build is NOT meant for extended melee spam (hence the lack of [Berserker Fury] and combo count mods). This build is designed to maximize the +5% speed gained from dual daggers to blitz through small crowds and get out of dodge in case you find yourself swarmed and you are caught reloading with your pants down in a corner.

In other words, this is designed for higher-level players who have grown weary of mashing the melee button to clear the room. Instead, this build trades combo-conditional mods for reliability, while optimizing status chance to 80% for instantaneous panic crowd control and 57% crit for occasional damage amplification. Electricity was chosen for its instantaneous stun and chaining properties, opening a narrow window of opportunity to bullet jump away and finish reloading. Swaping [Organ Shatter] for a heat mod may also be a viable option for this role, due to confusion's tendency to cause enemies to prioritize each other over teno.

Alternatively, electricity could be replaced with heat to change its role from a panic button to an armor strip and elemental primer build for heavy targets. This could be further enhanced by removing the crit mods and replacing them with corrosive/viral.
