Description
This is not a META build by any stretch. It is a whole lot of fun.
You'll be surprised at how little you'll need your heavy attacks hence the Munitorum Mk II Relic Blade
The Locke Mk IIb Spearhead Boltgun is there because it's the most fun to hold down the trigger on. For anything really big, dump the magazine and reload later, if you bother reloading at all for the rest of that mission.
The gameplay loop for me has been close distance on hoard. Hit power up. Manage toughness with dodging and popping Fury of the Faithful as you see it dip. I like to leave at least once charge in the bank for that toughness heal when required.
The other charge is for 2 situations. First is when you need to close distance on gunners. Second is for when your sword's power up runs out.
Go in heavy to any engagement powered up, pop Fury when it overloads, once Fury is finished your sword is hot to trot again. Normally by this point your group is cleaning up and/or out of any real strain.
Stunstorm Grenade grenade is reserved for reviving teammates under duress (hence Providence) and closing distance on those pesky gunner squads.
We're gonna take full advantage of the toughness regen and resistance from a number of talents being much easier to get to since the re-work. Martyrdom is the cherry on the cake combined with Until Death for those situations where your DPS drops due to Fury of the Faithful and the Relic Blade's power up being on cooldown down. Most of the time it'll have recharged by the time things get really hairy for your survivability again.
Remember though, fun not META.
Embrace your inner Conan and go hack and slash.
