Description

Divider

Weapons

The Locke Mk IIb Spearhead Boltgun is great at sniping and burst damage against heavy targets or mixed mobs. It needs to be paired with a high mobility melee weapon. The Catachan Mk III Combat Blade, Atrox Mk II Tactical Axe or the Maccabian Mk IV Duelling Sword are all excellent options.

 

Tactics

This build is Storm Trooper themed, you are tough and dish out high damage especially to elites and mostrosities.

This build is a very good against bosses, (unless they have Void Shield) very high DPS.

Against Void Shield the quickest way is to attack them with melee, potentially utilize parry, to break the shield, then switch to either the Boltgun or stick a Krak Grenade on them.

Use your Ability to support the team if they are pressed! Quickly reload and magdump if needed!

Highlight more dangerous enemies with Focus Target! for more damage and easier tracking!

Sniping Specialist enemies and reloading before empying the magazine will be 55% faster, due to Volley Adept and Tactical Reload.

Use single shots whenever you can! Try keeping your magazine full for the times when you need to magdump!

 

Talent options

Any of the Blitzes will work for this build. Shredder Frag Grenade is good against hordes and large mixed mobs, Krak Grenade is good against Bosses, Bulwarks, Crushers and Monstrosities, Smoke Grenade is very useful when taking fire from a large number of ranged enemies.

 

Ability

Duty and Honour or Only In Death Does Duty End is a personal preference.
