12-24% Rending on Enemy Weak Spot Hit for 3.5s. Stacks 5 times.

30-60% Rending on Critical Hit.
Directions:
Use special attack to prep shovel, then apply shovel directly to forehead of heretic!
Remember to shovel special attack often if you enjoy one-shotting crushers
Revolver for disablers, specials, boss weak points
To maximize DPS, mind your skirmisher buff from sprinting and keystone buff from swapping weapons after kills
Toss smoke grenades in front of downed allies to avoid getting sniped during revive
Smoke can also go in front of packs of gunners/reapers/shotgunners to neuter them for 15s, just keep tagging to highlight them through it
Smoke around a boss or mission objective can allow you to safely focus
Your stealth ability is more of a defensive/support/utility tool than offensive. Don't just hold onto it for high-priority targets. Your DPS is not dependent on it. Use stealth often (you get cooldown on special kill), do things safely, avoid letting situations go sideways.
Suppressing nearby enemies is powerful CC. Safely get to downed allies and revive. Fix data interrogators for objectives stress-free.
You do not have to reload. You will always have one in the chamber after getting a melee kill. Swap between melee and range frequently to take more advantage of this keystone talent
Customizing for you
You can consider dropping bottom middle talents up to but not including Tactical Awareness, if you prefer talent alternates:
-30% weakness damage
-grenades every 60s
-close quarters killzone
-longshot + exhilirating takedown
Shovel Mk VII is also great. You can swap +25% dmg vs. xyz perks for your priority breakpoints
Toughness on elite kill is also great on revolver
Curio blessings are flexible, especially if you are confident with avoiding gunner fire. Fill that third slot with whatever your weakness is. If you get surrounded by hordes, bring block efficiency. If you fall to snipers, bring resistance to them. If you love the support role, bring revive speed. Etc
