Description
My current Zealot main. Excellent control, huge damage sponge if you take advantage of Holy Revenant and don't intentionally run low health, with just two or three stacks of Martyrdom it can do anything you ask of it. Control the battle field with the Bolt Pistol (BP), Stunstorm Grenades, and Chorus. After a Chorus the Relic Blade (RB) will quickly dispatch any enemy.
High mobility BP is the key to this build, otherwise you are too slow. For all but the shortest of distances you should switch to the BP for movement. Run And Gun makes up for the stability being the dump stat. It also allows you to run up to enemies shooting them in the face which triggers Lethal Proximity (LP). LP is amazing, stagger whole hordes with just a few rounds. It also boosts the AoE range of your grenades. The extra close range damage from Run And Gun is a slight boost LP as well.
Stun Grenades with increased AoE are phenomenal, use them as cover when rezzing or interacting with terminals, stun whole hordes, separate groups of enemies, long throws to stop shooters, great stopgap if you overheat your sword or need to reload.
P.S. I call it driving stick because every stack of Martyrdom is like a different gear.
