Creator Notes
Talon thrives on "they can't kill me if my damage output is so high they just die". So try to go dmg as the build sort of suggests. Remember that you can manually detonate birb with space- mega useful (I used to forget about that). Place traps below yourself so you detonate them as you shoot someone who jumped you. Throw a trap and detonate with arrow on the urn carrier to make them drop it. After key AP upgrades (t3 bird -> t3 arrow), I'll usually go moreso for trap (it gets a lot even better at t3), but getting rain t2 is good too- no particular opinions here tbh.
