Core Mechanics

 Dog Utility: The dog provides automatic protection against backstabs, tracks down shooters and specialists, and acts as a safety blanket for your team.

 Health & Toughness: Utilize Hammer of Judgment for melee attack speed, Force of Will for toughness replenishment on headshots, and True Grit as an essential damage gate to prevent overhead downs.

 Stagger & Control: Break the Line is the recommended ability for its short 20-second cooldown, allowing you to force enemies to fall over and recover resources when in danger.

 Forceful Keystone: Provides significant impact (stagger) and damage resistance. Use Arbites Vigilant to trade your stacks for a temporary, powerful strength boost that facilitates elite and group clearing.

Loadout Recommendations

 Melee: Arbites Shock Maul is the preferred choice. Use Execution and Thunderous to apply brittle-ness to targets, significantly reducing the time-to-kill against armored enemies like crushers.

 Ranged: Exterminator Shotgun Mark III. It offers high flexibility, sufficient range for specialists, and a special shell for crowd control.

 Blitz: Remote Detonation with Voltaic Mandibles. This provides a strong AOE stagger and a lasting damage-over-time effect.

Playstyle and Team Role

 This build acts as the frontline anchor. Your primary responsibility is staggering enemies to create openings for your team and using your dog to thin out ranged threats.

 The dog serves as an "extra team member," reducing chip damage for backline teammates and securing specialists during chaotic melee engagements.
