Description

Playstyle

Cleave your way through heretics with toxic frenzy.

The idea here is to increase the attack speed with the cleaver as much as possible. It's important to switch toxin type between green (vs. unarmored enemies) and purple (vs flak, carapace).

The key is to hit weak spots on any viable targets to get one-shot kills in order to trigger Decapitator while also having Shock & Awe . This combined with the +crit chance from Chem Enhanced and Float Like a Butterfly should give some synergies with Hyper-Critical while choppin' away at toxin infected enemies.

When encountering larger groups with any of the following Crusher Scab Mauler Scab Rager Dreg Rager use Blackout to infect them with toxins using Pocket Toxin 

Also, save the Branx MKII Needle Pistol for heavier targets like Crusher and bosses while also deleting Dreg Gunner Scab Gunner and any maniacs. I always use the regular chem dot (not the explosive one). I put Between the Eyes on it because I usually find myself suppressed when using it, this could be switched out of course.
