Once imprisoned of supporting the Emperor's Will, low let loose to clean up what you have started.
Knife, which was born for Zealot, helps you push bleed and crits like mad. Faster attacks means quicker application.
The stub is more of a quick draw, so the only reason to fully reload it is for monstrosities that you can't approach with a knife. HOWEVER, it has huge damage and is very mobile, meaning sliding back then reloading quickly reloads a bullet, for which you can quickly pump a shot into the head of a rager.
Your level 20 talent could be either Faith Restores All or Holy Revenant. Rising Conviction must stay on as we attack quickly, so this boosts our damage best within this line. Everything else is pretty understandable, with toughness damage reduction and crits being the focus here.
