Help On Dread

[Cryhunter059]

Can someone help me build a better Dread build than this, or should I just stick with this?

Well one thing I can see that you could add is Split Chamber, Double the damage pretty much

 

Another thing is that you can get rid of one of the Ammo utility mods you have, keep Arrow mutation on since you will never run out of arrows with that mod alone.

 

Also Dread has Punch-through already if I recall right, so remove Shred and increase Speed Trigger.

 

Fast hands is a helpful mod but if you want to go more of the damage end, try replacing Fast hands with an element.

 

 

In short, if you want additional damage, replace Ammo Drum with Split Chamber, Replace Shred with a Element (Your choice), replace Fast hands with a element (To create a combo) Or maybe get Hammer shot for bonus crit damage.

And increase the amount you get from speed trigger (If possible).

 

Some forma may be needed to max out dread.

 

I don't use bows all that much but This is around what I use commonly, seems to work decently for me.

First get rid of ammo drum, you have ammo mutation so that should cover you.

Next you need elements up there. Either Gas or just heat (i assume you are fighting infested because the dread is mostly slash)

Finally get rid of speed trigger and go with hammer shot.(if you aren't going with Gas). 

Split chamber also helps but I know it eludes some people so i wont mention it.(but put it in if you have it)

Remember Bows= Massive Crits

Shred already gives you fire rate and punch through so that's great.

 

It might need a forma but overall that's a decent build. ( Personally i don't use corrupted mods all that much so someone else might put up a better build using them)

 

EDIT: Bad Spellings !!

Corrosive, corrosive, corrosive.

I changed your build and assuming you do not want to super charge or forma your dread i would recommend having,

Max Serration ,

Max vital sense and rank 3 point strike,(no need to max point strike because crit chance is capped at 100%)

max shred , (more punch through never hurts not to mention the extra fire rate)

Max speed trigger, (pretty much instant charged arrows with shred)

Max split chamber ,

and rank 1 arrow mutation if you want some extra ammo( feel free to change this mod out for something else like malignant force if you want more damage)

 

It takes all 30 energy.

I'd just get Paris Prime since it has puncture over slashing and for high end Void/Grineer. Puncture goes a long way compared to Slashing.  Slashing will remain the sa while armor climbs higher, Puncture's damage will begin to rise the more armor a foe has and with Heavies, Moas,  Ancients, and Lancers all being weak to Puncture  with just a tad weak to Slashing.  Paris Prime comes out on top.  Though if you must use Dread I posted a build for it below. 

Paris Prime

 

Dread

 

If you wanna compare here you go.  Though yes Slashing is a good Proc, you shouldn't depend on a Proc to deal the damage.
