Build highlights:
- Kills havoc 40 crushers in 1-special hit without using FotF (with bloodthirsty + 1-2 headtaker/sustained assault stacks).
- Solo kills melee twin in just 4-5 hits (1 hit on shield, 3-4 hits on health depending on buffs)
------
In the new patch, you deal more damage if you use FotF BEFORE chain weapon special latch. I think something changed between patches (before, you needed to latch first and then use FotF).
With bloodthirsty you don't need FotF to get subsequent Crusher 1-shots.
------
Here's usually how combat goes:
1) FotF kill 1 elite or just 1 trash mob with special. This activates bloodthirsty and 1 stack of sustained assault + headtaker.
2) activate special, and do a heavy overhead on a crusher/mauler in the head. This usually 1-shots them except in cases where you missed and didn't hit the weakpoint. If you have max headtaker/sustained assault it's almost always a guaranteed kill.
Other notes:
- Kill something with special + follow-up crit to activate CDR talent every once in a while.
- spam lights in horde.
- push attack to kill specials+gunners. It also deals good damage to rotten armor ragers and maulers.
