Description

Divider

This is a rough first draft of this build but stay tuned for updates.

 

Gameplan: Never reload your pistol Always Prepared will reload 1-2 bullets per weapon switch after melee kills (even just one). Only switch weapons to your pistol if an elite appears. You should have built up a pretty decent weapons specialist stack to give you an assured critical hit. You don't need ammo you dont need grenades. You only need to murder.

 

Melee: Horde Clear

Pistol: Elite/Specialist Kill

Krak Grenade: anything else.

 

-------------

Weapon Choices:

 

Revolver: Sustained Fire is bad in every build but this one. You want to use most of your drum and then whenever you switch weapons reload into the 3rd or 4th shot. This means you want exactly one bullet in your revolver whenever you put it away. This should give you that boost in power every shot. Hand Cannon is very funny when you always critical hit.

 

Chainsword or Catachan Sword: This build lives and dies on having max stacks of Ranged Specialist meaning you need to clear hordes fast so you can switch to your pistol whenever you need an elite dead. These weapons do the job.

--------

Ability Choice: Voice of Command Generally really good. I'm going to test out Infiltrate as well to see if that works but giving your team buffs is always good and can get you out of tight spots.

 

Weaknesses: Bosses in general. You don't have a zealot with bonk hammer level of damage (or whatever the coolest way to kill bosses is now). You can definitely put down some damage and help but you aren't going to be blowing peoples minds with your damage here. Support your team by killing the chaff and then doing pistol shots at the boss whenever you have 10 stacks.

 

------

Important nodes: 

Always Prepared: for every reason I already explained

Survivalist: 1% of 56 bullets (the revolvers max) is about half a bullet. Not sure if this rounds up or not but considering how little you use your gun you won't be having problems here. Also this is just generally the best Aura.
Demolition Stockpile: You don't need your grenades often but you always want them. Grenade Tinkerer and Twinned Blast are just to make sure you don't fail to kill. This is probably overkill but the Vet tree is so janky right now you cant really go and get things you really want.
