Description
A Build for the chain axe community out there! Mk XII fans!
Curios can be choice, but stamina is important for any ranged weapon using Stripped down.
Orestes Mk XII Assault Chainaxe hardly needs Hyper critical but spamming lights dishes out a ton of kill and knockback in hordes, making them very manageable and the push special with or without special rev creates for an extremely versatile Melee. Between Chemical Dependency Chem Fortifiedand Stimm Lab gives 27% toughness DR, 12 of it across the board, so if you think the Axe is a little slow it can give forgiveness when the addictions.
Branx MKII Needle Pistolis a staple, but technically optional. The naked buffs to melee make the Mk XII shine and it really mulches when under stim, like anything and anyone else affected. Some skills that debuff opponents (eg. Targeted Toxin )might not seem important to some and will likely be shifted to the survival section on higher level play( Slippery Customer, Nimble, and Jittery) , but for melee heavy comps the DR along with debuffs can maybe make a difference when Crusher armies present themselves.
Unarmored on Orestes is for better all around Horde clear, even with it on some unarmored critters still survive a light attack.
Yjis build also can be ran with the Enginseer's Mk VI Crowbar , so essentially, the Crowbar and MK XII competing for style points
