OK, this build is SUPER bad at Difficulty 4 Bossing and in hindsight, I probably should have better utilized Fresh Clip Support by not waiting until autoreload at no ammo left.

Otherwise my main feedback about Rapid Shot is that heat dissipates way too fast where dodge rolling at all is just super punishing and needing to tap shoot to move at full speed while dodging mechanics is really awkward. Delaying heat loss would also give me a window to use a Font of Rage ballista without any dps loss.

The 6s ramp-up isn't terrible, but Emergency Reload not counting as a huge full reload for Fresh Clip is definitely something that should be changed. I otherwise have to wait until a full autoreload during a big dps window like heavy stun to get any chance of full value.

I am unsure if investing into Ricochet is worth or not since I didn't feel it on regular map bosses, and only some bosses have jank aiming that lets bullets hit the ground and walls aren't always available.

For Xesht, it was awkward dealing with Tul's icicle shots since I needed to be in melee range to deal damage so the tree shifted some stun recovery to ailment threshold. Breach clearing was also awkward since mobs weren't dying to the usual Decimate/Culling and not as big pack sizes so I had to use Flash Grenade a lot. Maybe should have upgraded my secondary crossbow. Xesht took me the most attempts at like 8~ compared to the 3 Arbiters I did.
