Description
Build plays fast but isn't quite as frenetic as the old knife builds. Whole concept is to push hard with melee, seeking mixed metal packs and snap off specials/ranged grunts with your autogun.The quick swap/wield chains sword and auto gun while gaming stacks of Terminus Warrant is very gratifying. Due to Arby having so many 15% melee nodes you can achieve 1 strike "rev up" kills. Kill one mob, proc bloodthirsty, go to town chaining them down. This is when it really helps to have a bruiser blocking, pushing, with CC. True grit is there for those crouching tiger hidden hammers the crushers throw from time to time.
Hordes get minced with high speed light attacks + shred crit stacking, or even a mag dump of your auto gun if high on ammo. Specials get gunned down by accurate but high rate of fire combined with writ of judgement. The crit damage really stacks very quickly. Take advantage of high reload speed for the 15% ranged dmg buff, crits plus raking fire melt anything but carapace.
Play with a shield ogryn/arby or some other control king. Shock mines for SHTF. Dog on AFK ranged kills or call for emergency pounces. Nuncio is nice for team pick ups and I really enjoy the suppression immunity plus recoil reduction for longer range engagements typically outside the reach of an autogun. That said, switching for castigators is perfectly fine too if your feeling squishy.
Curios are really your choice, I like having an extra wound with random teams.
