Description
--Note: Currently refining the build, and working on re-blessing the dockets out of the curios.--
This is a take on a standard melee eviscerator build with a focus specifically on taking out specialists. Maniacs, Mutans, and Ogryn are the build's best targets, with the damage stacking able to one- or two-shot them in most cases with a revved attack. This build has had moderate success against Maulers as well, but the lack of any real armor penetration does mean you're best off getting in behind them and letting the eviscerator do most of the work with its bleed stacks.
This build does great work as well on monstrosities and bosses, with the movement speed allowing you to really close (or make) gaps while revving up to deliver critical hits and bleed damage against the beefiest of targets. The Kantrael IX is a great option for crowd-clearing as well with horde-management in mind. While you can't, quite, totally ignore the threat posed by ranged enemies, this build negates some of the threat from them thanks to the protection offered by Hit & Run. Additionally, the incendiary grenades are great at softening up big targets as they charge in, or for totally blocking off access for hordes, of course to keep things manageable.
