Imperial Rifleman
 Veteran Build - Warhammer 40k: Darktide 

"If it has a head, you'll get it dead!"

This setup revolves entirely around your abillity to click heads with you preferred lasgun. I use the green one because it is equal parts fast and powerful, but if you would rather use the other Kantrael varients, or even one of the Accatran or Lucius varients, then this build will still accomodate them to a similar effect.

How to use:

This build is at its strongest when you have distance between yourself and the enemy. Prioritize targeting specialists and elites with headshots first. If your aim is true, you should be able to drop them with one or two shots. Make use of the Executioner's Stance as often as you can. If you see an enemy with a gun, you can use the abillity to spot other ranged enemies, and killing them with give you infinite up time and reduce the cooldown. You also want to be building stacks of Marksman's Focus as often as possible. Don't be afraid to fire your lasgun into a horde, just keep the gun at head height and you'll have that 15% rending and 112.5% finesse damage in no time.

The melee weapon choice is entirely up to you, as its only there as a backup for when you end up in melee range or run out of ammo. 

If you find yourself within melee range of the enemy, you probably don't want to be there. Your shovel should help you keep the enemies back and get some distance again. If you're being swarmed, stick to using heavy attacks since they have a wide swing and high stagger. In the case or ragers, use the special attack for a guaranteed stagger.
