Description
This is a build I found on Reddit made by user: LeAlphaWolf
I come to you today, as a religious Zealot player, with a build that achieves 97% toughness damage reduction with essentially 100% uptime during combat. Resulting in over 4,000 effective toughness with just 2 curios. This build regens between 166 - 241 effective toughness on kill, between 1,666 - 2,416 effective toughness on ultimate use, and has an ultimate cooldown of <10 seconds in hoard scenarios.
Up until Heresy difficulty, this build can ignore all damage in the game apart from fire damage (instantly breaks toughness), snipers (they don't break toughness but will deal like 20% health damage), dogs & trappers (cause you to lose your damage reduction), and pox bursters (instantly break toughness).
On Heresy and above, this build still works extremely well, you'll just need to put a little more effort into surviving. Below Heresy, you can run into any hoard or combination of enemies you want (except the aforementioned ones) and I guarantee you, that you will not die.
Weapons:
- Any range weapon
- Combat Blade with laceration or,
- Atrox axe with Shred
How to play:
- Crit an enemy with melee or hit them with a lacerate weapon to apply bleed.
- Crit the enemy again to activate Faith Restored.
- Enjoy your 97% toughness damage reduction.
- Continue hitting enemies.
- Use ultimate whenever you want, you'll have it back in the next 10 seconds anyway.
- Pull as much enemy attention as you possibly can away from your team because you don't take damage.
- Make the Emperor proud.

After trying out this build I can say I have been positively suprised and kind of adicted. The speed and tankyness is second to none.
When it comes to curios I try to have a litle bit of everything. +1 wound is not nesesary but on heresy it can give you some extra survivability. Ally revive speed allways comes in handy, so to does sprint efficancy. More toughness is a no brainer but since you will have a high uptime on gaining toughness you might want to swap in for some more health.

Hope you find this helpfull.
