Outlaw training and skill build after max BF

So, after struggling 70 lvls with DS, i'm maxing burst fire next lvl (77). my question is, where do i train once it's maxed\at 80? (new gun) i heard stormbreakers or newties. allso, which skills do i get? splitter or octo?

allso, a couple of things that should be considered when giving me an answer:
i'm not funded (means i wont have the BEST equips - my range now is 852~1511 with a warrior elixir @76)
i dont have 96 use slots (or any extra, the usual 28) - means i'll try not to have over 12 sets of vitals and 2~3 capsules.

waiting for an answer

I'd stay at lower ascent for a couple more levels then head to Cavern Of Pain once you feel ready to take on stormbreakers+windraiders. Newties might get boring after a while.

Get Ice to a comfortable level (was 13 for me, many would recommend 21), then max Octo.

Just a note - tornado corriodor.
and i think i will stay there\lower ascent\MPQ till 80, then take on stormbreakers.

Maybe it'll sound stupid, but how ice helps me? i'm sniping at the cavern of pain or using blank when i need it, and once octo gets to a decent lvl (82~83) i move to newties. and ofcourse, finding a newtie map wont be a problem so i'll always have where to train.
so the only use i see to ice is training at Stormhall with it, and having places to train incase i get bored from newties. (and it sounds like i will )

I used Ice all the time at Stormbreakers (not the CWKPQ area, that wasn't out, the mixed Stormbreaker/Windraider cave with Jack). It's faster to freeze the monsters and shoot them down than to go to a safe spot.
