Weapons

As for the Scarlet Aegis, this tier-2 shield is perfect for blocking incoming attacks, and paired with the Heavy Shield mod, you can easily absorb a number of hits without breaking a sweat.

Trinket

• O.R.C. Nullifier

Our choice of Trinket is the O.R.C. Nullifier. It reduces all incoming damage from O.R.C. enemies, making you much more tankier against them.

Mutations

• Smasher
• Cardio Fan
• Frenzy

The Smasher mutation pairs perfectly with your club, providing you with enhanced stun damage potential in the Best Fighter build in Grounded 2.

Cardio Fan will ensure that you have improved stamina and resilience. Better yet, it will lower the amount you spend exhausted when you deplete your entire stamina bar.

Lastly, with Frenzy, all your melee attacks deal increased damage and help you regenerate health. This mutation triggers rage, which enhances your offensive capabilities, allowing you to dish out some serious damage. However, all defensive capabilities, such as blocking, will be deactivated throughout this duration.
