However, this build burns through ammo pretty quickly, which can lead to serious ammo issues in Havoc missions.That’s why I’d recommend it more for non Havoc runs, it performs much more reliably there. 👍
👉 Looking to kill bosses as fast as possible?Then swap from the Shredder Frag Grenade to the Krak Grenade and always make sure to apply all 8 stacks of Focus Target during boss or monstrosity fights.Also make sure to aim for the weak spot or head for maximum damage.
👉 Which ability do you prefer — Executioner’s Stance or Voice of Command?
Voice of Command is usually the better choice: it gives you instant over-toughness and reliably staggers even armored enemies and bosses.
Executioner’s Stance offers more raw damage but doesn’t help much against armored targets, unless you also invest in the Onslaught talent on the bottom-right path for Brittleness.
👉 Why the Duelling Sword?It lets you take down Crushers and Mutants extremely fast and also target Elites or Specials precisely with charged (heavy) attacks.Plus, it gives you great mobility, so you can kite bosses and other enemies more effectively instead of having to block or tank them.It struggles a bit against hordes, just toss a Frag Grenade into the Hord and finish the rest off with light attacks.
