Auric Maelstrom - Gunlugger Ability Spam
Build for Darktide

build 

is primarily focused on stubber/ripper spamming with point blank barrage.

gorgonum

has a high enough fire rate to allow us to proc lucky shot frequently and apply light em up to crowds. decent at special sniping. great damage against bosses with ability. can use krourk or ripper II/V with can opener blessing as alternatives.

point blank barrage

reloads weapon, increases fire rate and reload speed, regens toughness while active and applies burn on ranged attacks. burn is great for dealing with armor + bosses. cooldown is reduced on lucky bullet proc and elite kill, so use it frequently. 

power maul

high stagger weapon good for creating space against hordes and armor. special applies rend with supercharge. as an alternative shield works well for blocking bullets if your gun runs out juice mid firefight with a squad of shooters.

frag bomb

great aoe and single target damage, good for mixed hordes and boss.

your job

is to stand in the back and fire your gun constantly, prioritizing elite enemies to trigger your rend on elite kill and cd reduction on elite kill talents. if armored squads show up use point blank to melt them. use power maul to create space in mixed hordes and rend armored targets if point blank is on cooldown or ammo is low. use grenade to deal with mixed hordes or as boss damage if ammo is low. for boss damage get in close enough for no damage falloff, activate ability, unload with your gun.
