Deep Rock Galactic: Best Gk2 Build

The Scout class is arguably one of the trickiest to master among the four alien Dwarves from Deep Rock Galactic. But it can be a great choice for co-op and even solo matches. Today, we’re looking at the Deepcore Gk2 to see how we can take the most out of this weapon!

Best Gk2 Build – Deep Rock Galactic

The Deepcore Gk2 is the Scout’s default weapon. It’s a balanced tool that’s good at long range and at close and mid ranges. With the modifications, there are a few ways you can change this weapon to make it better and suit your playstyle.

A good build for general purposes includes the following modifications:

Tier 1: Supercharged Feed Mechanism (+2 rate of fire)

Tier 2: Expanded Ammo Bags (+100 Max Ammo)

Tier 3: High Capacity Magazine (+10 Magazine Size)

Tier 4: Hollow Point Bullets (+20% Weakpoint Bonus)

Tier 5: Stun (+30% chance to stun on Weakpoint hit). Battle Frenzy (After killing an enemy, gain +50% Movement Speed for 2.5 seconds) is also cool, but since we equipped Hollow Point Bullets, Stun fits better.

Overclock: Most overclock options are viable on this weapon, so you should choose the one that feels truest to your preferred playstyle. Compact Ammo is a good default in case you don’t feel like experimenting much.

Now, if you wish to deal damage, you could change Tier 2 to Increased Calibre Rounds and Tier 3 to Improved Propellent. You can also switch Stun for Battle Frenzy if you’re in a mission that demands both damage and speed.

You might also want to test Bullets of Mercy, Overclocked Firing Mechanism, or AI Stability Engine for those types of high-damaged builds.

Good scouting!
