Summary
-
Mad Bushman High dps, fast speed (maybe fastest you can have, if you increase it with speed up and different backpack), low protection and stamina consumption. This build is mainly for support, but can be extremely effective even alone. It requires tactics and good reactions. If you wanna try it multiplayer I reccomend to party with tank. Breakthroughs

Full Build Details
Some examples of armor (you do not need to use any of this, just to help you get started):
Master Trader Hat can be used first before Pearlbird Mask, but you will lack the speed, that you need for this built.
Dancer Clothes is good substitute of Squire Attire because of the availability, but have slightly worse stats.
Desert Boots can be used before Master Trader Boots but its not necessary because you can find them quite often from Soroborean Caravanner.
To get the most out of this build: use expanded slots mod to improve your action speed, and have little more damage options.
Full reccomended items/skills for quickslots (you can choose which you preffer):
1 = Fire / Reload
2 = Manticore Dagger
4 = Serpent's Parry
5 = Obsidian Pistol
6 = Cool (skill)
8 = Frost Bullet
9 = Blood Bullet
10 = Shatter Bullet
11 = War Bow
12 = Rune: Shim
13 = Rune: Fal
14 = Rune: Dez
Some of the important items you need are:
Charges for traps- I mainly use poison and incindentiary.
Pistols- your choice, but I recommend Cage Pistol if you want to play with someone, every pistoll you carry can be loadet with Frost Bullet (it is like shotgun, so you must be closer then with regullar ammo but its spread is great against many enemies + its only mana skill so you dont need to carry many bullets, only iron scrap (I reccoment around 24-2full slots)
Pressure Plate Trap- at least 8 (they can be used around 10x with Pressure Plate Expertise)
Skills I have or should have (dont know if every is usefull but some can improve your built):
Tier 1: Armor Training, Efficiency, Fast Maintenance, Fitness, Hunter's Eye, Pressure Plate Training, Slow Metabolism, Weather Tolerance
Tier 2: Listed above in Breakthoughs
Tier 3: Choice- Pressure Plate Expertise, Blood Bullet, Fire Affinity

Approach
Attack with Cannon Pistol- enemy will receive confusion and pain (Chimera Pistol is also good but it is harder to get), run towards pressure traps- enemy will receive fire Dots from incindentiary or decay from poison charges + with Pressure Plate Expertise add some damage and impact on top. If enemy is still alive then change Cannon Pistol to Obsidian Pistol- increased damage, fire damage and also slow down will make tough times for your enemy. When he is still breathing he is a t.. very durrable and annoying, but I have this: Manticore Dagger + Serpent's Parry, it will stun him (duration depends on difficulty of enemy)+ he receive extreme bleeding and poison. With your high speed and stamina you can run, make runic traps and reloading guns without any troubles.
One last tip: when enemy is caster (like light mender or Obsidian Elemental) you can dodge or outrun projectiles- run toward them slightly to right or left or away from them.
One last info.: With hight speed, feather dodge and trader packpack you can easily pick up items up to ~ 200 and still be able to roll out without troubles.
