So before I get started with my character breakdowns, there are some things that should probably be addressed, as I will reuse many of these findings throughout my posts.
Firstly, PerishShit, a prominent redditor, created multiple detailed breakdowns. While I will likely reference them, I will also do my own findings just so I can make sure that he got the assumptions right. Some characters I will do writeups about also lack a post from him, but other characters he has covered will also be covered by me, as I may cover alternative builds or have different findings from him.
Another thing is his array of buffs that he uses. While he did dismiss The Lover in one of his posts, he neglected another argument in favor of The Lover/DMB. [1] The Lover/DMB should buff Tech Terrors, a huge source of damage in late game MG, so a strategy using those would see major benefit from damage bonuses. Speed Cap is generally irrelevant as an argument in favor of Lover/DMB as most characters struggle to reach it, and the ones that speed cap typically receive minimal benefit from it. Other buffs he did not include are Rock Out!'s global +20% speed buff (on a cooldown), Warning Horn's local 20% speed buff, and Scented Candles' local 10% speed buff.
