BULLY CLUB
Bully Club MKIIIb light attacks hit fast. "Just Getting Started!" + "Frenzied Blows" make it even faster. Hitting things fast does a lot for you in this build.
1. Procs "Confident Strikes" on the club, giving you 8% toughness per hit. (that's a lot since you're hitting so fast)
2. Procs "Go Again" on the Taunt. Lets you get your Taunt back quickly. Taunt = 9 seconds of insane Toughness regen from "No Pain"
3. Stacks "Focused Fighter" quickly. Gives you get a lot of melee damage resist.
4. Staggers everything. Fast attack = more enemies staggered = you take less damage. "Impactful" helps you stun lock elites. "Great Cleaver" is also a good choice if you prefer more cleave for more hoard damage.
I dump Defense over Mobility because I like to sprint slightly faster. Either is fine to dump.
I like Flak + Maniacs. Packs of Dreg Ragers are scarier than Crushers or Maulers imo. Plus, in the current meta (Kraks, Chem Tox, Rockets), armor packs & monstrosities don't live for very long anyway. If you're playing Rotten Armor, of course, bring Carapace.
HEALTH CURIOS
I like 3x Health Curios, it lets you survive "big oopsies moments". You can survive 2-3 overheads depending on what buffs you have up. Got hit by a trapper? More health = more time for your team to come and save you. Got caught in the open, in front of gunners, with nothing to hit? More health = more time to run to cover.
THE KEY IS TO GET IN THERE
You want to constantly hit enemies with the Bully Club to stagger them and to proc your toughness regen. Taunt + "Get Stuck In" helps you close the gap. Gunners? Bro sprint+slide in there, press Taunt and start hitting them. You can push the limit to how fast and aggressive you can play without dying. But of course, DON'T GET HIT BY DISABLERS.
WEAKNESS
You can block a little bit, but this is not the Slab Shield. Having to block a combo from like a Final Toll Sword Captain can be very painful. As you can see, I dump defence instead of mobility cause I rarely block with this build, and I'd rather have the slightly faster sprint speed.
