Close Range Brawler Build
This powerful build utilizes Colossus' Flamethrower and Lightning Coil to chain & burn through lesser enemies and even the tougher shielded / armored enemies. The close range combat compliments Colossus' need to grab health pack drops from fallen enemies, but will be suspected to enemy aggro. Reinforcing the armor of the Javelin is a must.
