Description

Divider

Crusher is no longer meme - feels good man.

Crusher - still not a horde clearing beast, but it is decent with Light 1 - Heavy2 and repeat. Heavy 1 - Light 3 is the best single target DPS. 

Perks:

  • Flak - Helps deal with all elites and those pesky melee scabs.
  • Maniac - Helps two shot Mutants, and deal with Rager. Can be replaced with Elite

Blessings:

  • SkullCrusher - the only damage blessing on this thing
  • Hammerblow - self buff so you can keep it up constantly during ambush/hordes. Special into a horde instantly stacks.

Headhunter VII

Perks:

  • Flak - Ranged elites are a pain, shoot them in the face
  • Maniac - Helps killing almost all specials, the point of this gun.

Blessings:

  • Surgical - Can be replaced with Headhunter, this is just easier to use as no head shots are required.
  • Opening Salvo - Feel free to replace with Deadly accurate, or Headhunter for incredible crit chance.


We are running Martyrdom as the Crusher special prevents enemies from attacking, so building Momentum via dodging is impractical. Even with the Finesse buffs, critical strikes are still a very meager increase in damage on Crusher, so Blazing Piety is very inefficient.

Shield of Contempt is less overpowered so I don't feel bad using it. still has an internal CD for each ally separately so even at 60% it is incredibly strong.


With the Crushers insane crowd control I do not feel the need to use Holy Rev. But you can make a more selfish build going for that and Benediction instead, or removing the damage and toughness node from the middle tree.
