The Reluctant Hero - Self-Preservation Specialist Build
 Veteran Build - Warhammer 40k: Darktide 

The Reluctant Commissar Build - "And then did the opposite, I hope.”

A Commissar of the Valhallan 597th, known across the Imperium as a hero and, by his own account, a coward who has only ever wanted to stay alive.

• Valhallan Class Chainsword (Cadia Mk IV Assault Chainsword) - A classic horde clearer and ok carapace ripper. Horde control handled, but Heavy-Light-Heavy. Single target through ether Push attack or the occasional special light or heavy, depending on the target. Not a powerhouse weapon but versatile and reliable for any adventures we get stuck into in Atoma. 
• Cain's Gambit Pistol (Accatran MG Mk II Heavy Laspistol) - The core of the build and a very powerful little las. While all of the propaganda has us with a bolt pistol, in truth we always preferred the more reliable las. Great for specials and groups of gunners with weak-spot hits. Infernus allows solid boss damage through fire DOT. Go MkII simply due to the faster fire rate to get them to stack faster. Deadshot helps with this, and Onslaught allows us to even penetrate carapace at a reasonable speed. 
• Heroic Posture (Executioner's Stance) - Your go-to shooting stance. Allows for busted breakpoints with the las and amplifies our damage even more. And if it means we have to stay at the back of the group, oh well... Shock Trooper means very few reloads, so we can stay in this stance for long periods of time, supporting the team with a torrent of las fire. Keep dodging to keep Reciprocity stacks up. 
• Spare Grenades (Krak Grenade) - For your major threats, save these for the things las-fire alone won't dent, such as bosses and crusher groups. If only one crusher, just use your chainsword and Onslaught; you don't wanna be facing a boss without a pile of Kraks for the excellent stagger. Distance is the best defence, and a stunned boss is a very long way away.
• Jurgen, this one! (Focus Target!) - Perfect addition to your pistol to burn down bosses or to mix into your melee fights to keep stacks of Redirect Fire! high! Point at the big one and delegate to the squad members with a certain meltagun.
