Why only 120 Stat points?

Too much dexterity plus Charge, Dodge Mastery and Share the Wealth won’t add more to dodge chance.

Permanently increases the power of your range weapon.

Tome: Dual Wielding

Permanently increases the power of your pistols as long as it is dual wielded.

Tome: Animal Handling

The tome permanently powers up your pet and shadowlings.

The main required equipment for this build is to dual pistol. The most high end weapon of course is recommended.

Health stolen on hit

Having health stolen on hit is a must for survival. You need it for insurance even the build has the skill to keep enemies at range distance.

• thank you for your response i love this build has it also been tested for elite

• I'm new to action RPGs and I'm gonna try this build soon, just wanted to ask why didn't you take rapid fire?

• This is my first full play through on Torchlight 2 believe it or not, I was always a Diablo/POE/Grim Dawn guy.

  I must say though, this build is simply fantastic, blasted my way through the campaign with absolutely no problem. Currently working on Map Works right now, but only lvl. 55 so I still have a ways to go.

  Well done sir.

• Thnaks a bunch, I was building a really messy Outlander with some skills I hadn't used for a while, and then I was always swithching from Cannons to Pistols; it was bad. Let's see what I can do with this! ;)

• Thank you so much for this guide, I was really at a loss on how to build my outlander and make her an effective player.
