Borderlands Wilhelm Best Skills

The below listed out the best skills for Wilhelm only, for the full list of Wilhelm’s skills in Borderlands The Pre-Sequel, check out this skill tree tool by lowlidev

Best Wilhelm Skills | Hunter-Killer

Afterburner

Enhance Wolf’s speed, your Reload and Bullet Speed. This is good to have for all builds

Fire Support

Increase damage for both Wilhelm and Wolf. More damage.

Laser Guided

A pretty powerful skill for boss fight and harder raids. This marks a target and increase damage deal to that target.

Rolling Thunder

Another Damage Boost for Wolf. This is an easy pick for the build.

Scramble

Replace Wolf when it dies and add more time to Wolf and Saint’s Duration. Whatever your build is, put one point to this is always a good idea

Omega Strike

It does sound good to have more missiles in your arsenal. But similar to the Turret’s missile, the damage late game may turn some people off. However, combine this with a boost from Rolling Thunder or similar skills, Omega Strike can still deal some impressive damage.

Best Wilhelm Skills | Cyber Commando

Laser Focus

Good for anyone love Laser Guns. Otherwise, it’s a pretty basic skill, can drop if you like other guns

Targeting Scope

This sync well with Escalation and 50% more damage on Crit is always welcome.

Emergency Response

This increase your Fire Rate and Reload speed every time your Shield is depleted for 15 seconds. Good for survivability.

Divert Power

Another skill that syncs with Emergency Response and can quickly return you back to combat.

Welcome to The Gun Show

Increase overall Gun Damage (15% at level 5) and Reload Speed. The Magazine size and Accuracy is hard to notice, but this is a good pick if you don’t have anything else to spend on.

Vengeance Cannon

Add shoulder mounted cannon to your body. This shoot along side with your current equipped weapons. Players reported that you need to stop shooting for the cannon to fire. This is kind of a bummer though.

Best Wilhelm Skills | Dreadnought

Auxiliary Tanks

The best skill to boost your Wolf and Saint. This reduce the cooldown and increase the duration of the Action Skill. Given that Wolf and Saint is the core mechanic of Wilhelm, this is a must for any builds

Fortify

Good bonus for Gun Damage. The Health increase is a nice bonus

Energize

Great for co op play. This skill enable Saint to restore both you and allies shield. The bonus charge rate is also welcome.

Rapid Reinforcement

This boost your movement speed and reload speed for every enemy you kill. Wolf and Saint cooldown is also reduced

Overcharge

The ultimate of Saint. This is by far the best skill in Wilhelm skill tree. This also affects nearby allies.

Borderlands The Pre-Sequel Builds | Wilhelm Builds

Builder Link

This build focus on powering up Wilhelm himself and some of his two sidekicks (Wolf and Saint) abilities. Most of the skills in Cyber Commando are picked for this purpose.

You can start off this build either by the Hunter Killer or Dreadnought skill tree. If you prefer a head start in Damage for both Wilhelm and Wolf, pick up Fire Support as soon as you reach level 3. If you prefer to use the active skill more often, Auxilary Tanks from Dreadnought can also be picked.

Dreadnought Overcharge should be your priority as soon as you get enough level. These skills enhance your experience in both solo and coop play. Moving to this skill also increases the durability of Wilhelm and both Wolf and Saint.

After that, both Rolling Thunder and Omega Strike can be combined to have an advantage in combat for Wolf

The rest of the skills are dumped to Cyber Commando – to increase Wilhelm’s mobility, damage and offensive capacity.

This build sync well with Celestial Enforcer class mod.
