Arbites
Timed Blocks Stun the attacker, and grant you 10-25% Melee Strength for 3s. Cooldown 3s.
10-25% Rending vs Staggered Enemies.
5-6.5% Strength for 5s on Close Range Kill.
7-10% Reload Speed for 3 seconds after Close Kill. Stacks 5 times.
Some days you just gotta start blasting. And it's okay in Darktide if you can't see so good, the Crucis Mk XI Double-Barrelled Shotgun can't miss! Arbites Grenade is your long range bomb and Branx Mk XI Shock Maul and Suppression Shield in the melee keeps you on the advance if you accidentally find yourself in Dreg Gunner Island. 3 single shots, frequent reloads, you'll constantly be at 5 Deathspitter and Speedload stacks and can chain them with Castigator's Stance every 1.5 seconds. You'll put out similar hurt to a Gungryn with a Lorenz Mk V Kickback and you have convenient toughness refill and 80% damage reduction on demand along with a casual 7 cleave boosted to 10.5 from Forceful Targets Acquired to be blasting 2 Scab Mauler per go! And when in doubt about a Monstrosity, 35 Arbites Grenade per mission never hurt!
