Description

Divider

This build is an allrounder and frontline Veteran. 

The build utilize "Confirm Kill", "Iron Will", and also the ability "Voice of Command" to turn Veteran into a Semi Tank. Additionally, the Keystone modifier "On Your Toes" replenishes 20% toughness by just activate the Keystone itself. And, with "Get Back in the Fight" make the Veteran immune to stun and slow when the toughness is broken, further increase the survivability and also great for repositioning. 

 

The damage of this build come from utilizing ability to increase damage output for you and teammate by having a combination of "For the Emperor!" and "Close Quarters Killzone". 

Also, the Keystone "Weapon Specialist" turn the build into a hybrid melee and range DPS, this makes the build become very flexible. But, because the dependency on the ability usage makes this build feels a little under damage without it. To fix the problem, "Tactical Awareness" is required for reducing cooldown of the ability.

 

In conclusion, this build is very flexible for both melee and range weapon style of gameplay. Also, tanky enough to become a frontliner.

 

PS. I choose Frag grenade over Krak is because I find myself in a situation that I cannot clear the entire horde quick enough quite often and also I want to have "Survivalist" to replenish my ammo back.
