Description

Divider
  • Pretty good at everything besides horde-clear.  This can be mitigated by using Power Sword (recommend Mk 3) for melee instead, with Power Cycler and Wrath blessings, though it has less reach than Dueling Sword and doesn't take advantage of Weapons Specialist bonuses as well.
  • Make sure to only switch to each weapon as you are about to use it to take full advantage of the respective Weapons Specialist buff.
  • When a large armored horde is arriving, chuck a Krak grenade immediately as they regenerate every 60 seconds anyway.
  • Hunt elites constantly with your pistol between melee kills.  You are immune to suppression, so nothing stops you from focusing on any elite for a moment with your ranged to take it out for the team.  The Handcannon blessing will give you "super-crits" guaranteed after 3 melee kills, and for each elite kill you get with your pistol, you will get 60% toughness back (half from Gloryhunter blessing, half from Confirmed Kill passive).  And for every specialist kill you get 6 seconds off the 26-second cooldown of your shout.
  • Speaking of shout: use pre-emptively when possible; after you throw your krack grenade at an armored pack, shout them to the ground right before they can get a hit in, to give your teammates time to kill them while they're helpless.
  • Stay extra-tight as you get a huge 33% toughness damage reduction if everyone is in coherency.
