So i have gradually been swaying more towards unconventional builds and approaches, in pursuit of "perfecting" a loadout specifically for my style, and due to not appreciating how "hit or miss" the general Viral Meta can be at times, despite how rare it is, i've been experimenting with something that's as universally reliable as possible.
This type of build is one of my most noteworthy outcomes, and is based around a combination of Shattering Impact and Electricity procs:
The setup in question, in this case, used on a Zaw dagger due to personal preferences.
The build in question is mostly based around usage on weapons that's generally capable of hitting very rapidly, such as Dual Swords, Dual Daggers, single Daggers, etc. and has the rather unusual benefit of being able to removing all armor from the vast majority of enemies (provided they can actually live long enough for that to happen), granting some utility which, albeit often not needed, can be quite handy at times. Furthermore, although Shattering Impact is often frowned upon due to taking long to really have its effect show, more often than not, it's not necessary, and even when it is, it becomes evident that its doing its thing sooner than one might expect.
Of course, as everything else in life, there's a catch: In this case, it's the rather obvious one of it not dishing out as much upfront damage as a more conventional build. That being said, it still does more than enough damage for just about everything that reasonably makes sense to fight, with or without the heavy attacks that Focus Energy allows you to justify using on occasion to take down a bigger target, and doesn't struggle immensely with all but a select few cases, of which it's unlikely you might actually fight frequently, let alone use this setup for.
