4.5-6% Critical Chance for each expended round in your weapon (resets on reload).
7-10% Reload Speed for 4 seconds after Close Kill. Stacks 5 times.
With this build is you will be getting close to elites popping "executioners stance" and spamming revolver shots and reloading A LOT you need to only shoot 4 times so you get the "speedload" blessing bonus + "tactical reload" passive talent bonus and "volley adept"
By doing this you get great rate of fire and your damage will come from the "crucian roulette" blessing + "deadshot" passive talent.
You also get 6s off your cooldown from "Tactical awareness" so you can keep "Executioners stance" up as much as possible that's why this build works better on high intensity or auric missions.
"deadshot" passive talent drains a lot of stamina quick so that's why we're getting both modifiers on the skill tree to start stamina regeneration faster, synergizing with the :stamina regeneration: in your curios + :sprint efficiency: on the curios and other passive talents like "vanguard" and "duck and dive"
If you get overwhelmed remember to spam your nades which are a great way to stagger a large group and give you some breathing room since we're including "Demolition stockpile"passive for some sustain( 2 nades back to back will always wipe a horde and most elites like shotgunners, raggers,etc.), and ofc whipping out your melee weapon of choice.
Make sure to prioritize elites and specialists so you get a constant influx of toughnes regeneration from the "Confirmed kill" blessing and at the same time support your team with "Born leader" as long as they're in coherency.
The distance for "Speedload" blessing stack to kick in is about ~7.5m to 8m (I found some inconsistencies on the meat grinder) if you're unsure of the distance you can ping the ground where your enemy is and it will tell you the distance so you can get within that treshold. Overtime you'll be able to tell more easily.
You can spend all 5 shots if you need and still get some reload speed from the "speedload "blessing this will also come with +30% crit chance but you will forego the "tactical reload" beneffit
I use the either the :combat blades:,:tactical axes: or :combat axes: purely for RPing purposes but feel free anything that you like. Something with a bit more CC will most likely work better.
This build requieres a lot of blessings and effects to synch with each other and 80% of the time it works everytime.But even if you don't have all the boxes checked it should be able to perform decently with everything else and good practices.
I tried this build with all +3 stamina curios to have better stamina management,movement and damage output but felt too squishy for my playstyle, feel free to try it as well and lemme know how it works for you.
