When Haze fixates on a target she can hold her own in a firefight. She prefers to create one sided exchanges, avoiding damage then picking off unsuspecting targets up close.

Concerns of The Deep? I'm Blastin'
Description
"They will remember the name: Viscous!"
The 4th build in the "Concerns of The Deep" series.
This one is oriented around your gun. You'll be lowering the enemy's resistances so much, they won't be able to outlast you!
Items have little notes under them. Special thanks to Skinner for helping me adjust this build! Check out his builds "Evil Incarnate"!
Feel free to give me some feedback on the Viscous Discord: https://discord.gg/jD3Cauw6n5
