Description

V2 update: Horde management focused,  swapped krak grenades for power sword for crushers etc, good all rounder at melee and ranged still. 

 

Excells up close, not so much at distance.  

 

Frag grenades with twin blast for when the shotgun can't handle the horde - current update for the game made the AI director really murderous with endless horde so I had to shift it around. 

 

Downside:

Only good at dealing with crushers etc at short range.

 

Burning enemies will take a while to crumple and may need to be finished off at higher difficulty(4-5).

 

Low damage output on the frag grenades, bleed will help them die faster :) 

 

Final notes:

 

Remember don't get overconfident and aim up with melee, fastest way to crit the head in melee.

 

Power sword can be substituted for chainsword in a pinch.

 

Don't treat this build as gospel, works with other weapon types too, this is just my default.
