Description
Do you wish to be a living bomb? Does the Omnissiah whisper binharic litanies into your auditory implants, urging you to detonate in glorious service? Do you dream of wading into a tide of heretics before erupting in a crackling storm of lightning, leaving nothing but charred corpses and the smell of ozone?
Then congratulations, initiate - you've been selected for Skitarii Explosive Disposal Unit!
This build transforms your tiny little killing machine into a cybernetic shock trooper that lives for one thing: diving headfirst into the enemy, triggering devastating shockwaves and surviving just long enough to do it again. Every talent is chosen to feed into a cycle of overwhelming area damage, and relentless aggression.
Talents:
The cornerstone talents of this build are Voltaic Emitter and Power Overload. Together, they transform your Skitarii into a walking arc reactor. With maximum damage reduction stacks, you can reach up to 65% damage reduction, making you surprisingly resilient despite the aggressive playstyle. That's before factoring in the build's toughness regeneration options.
When it comes to your Blitz, there's no wrong choice - All three options work well with this build, so feel free to swap between them depending on the mission or your personal preference.
Lastly, don't be afraid to experiment and tailor the build to your own playstyle. No build is one-size-fits-all, and part of the fun is finding what works best for you.
After all, the Omnissiah rewards innovation...as long as you can convince everyone you merely rediscovered it.
++ GLORY TO THE OMNISSIAH ++
