2.5-4% Bonus Critical Chance on Chained Hit. Stacks 5 times.
Hitting at least 3 enemies with an attack, increases your cleave by 140-200% for 2 seconds.
5-8% Strength for every 10% of magazine spent during continuous fire. Stacks 5 times.
Up to 2-5% Strength, scaling with remaining Ammunition. Stacks 5 times.
Get to low health via any source (I just find fire barrels to stand on after blowing it up). Charge in and destroy (not mindlessly though, be wary.) Lead the frontline for your fellow Kriegsmen and chew through the entire horde.Chainsword Light Attacks to chew through Poxwalker hordes, Heavy Attacks to chew through more tougher Hordes (not purely Poxwalkers). Punishment should keep you safe since they will be staggered as much as possible.Pro Tip: Land a Special Rev Heavy first, then use Fury of the Faithful to massively boost the damage and probably straight up one-shot anything below a boss enemy (yes, even Crushers die, though you may need a few stacks of Martyrdom).Safest to stay at 5 Martyrdom Stacks, however you can go 6 if you're feeling really confident. You can only afford getting one blow to your Toughness before enemy damage starts chipping in, so be on your toes at all times and hold the Block button if you have to.
Throwing Knives to compensate for Flamer not having snipe potential, may take some learning. I believe in you. Use Flamer if facing Elite Patrols, particularly Gunners and Ragers / Maulers. Use Fury of the Faithful in the middle of flaming if there's Crushers mixed in.I'm too cowardly to try this in Auric Maelstrom but it should be good enough if the Modifiers aren't horrid. Good luck out there!- Kalhoun
