Description

Divider

This build focuses on passive AoE electricity and 

[Power Overflow] will be generating a constant stream of toughness regen for everyone in coherency thanks to: 
- [Confident Strike
- [Entropic Transfer
- [Invigorating Overload]

On top of your character being a consistent source of electrocution induced stuns, mitigating the enemies damage output: (Sources of electricity:) 
- Branx Mk III Arc Maul Crits 
- Branx Mk III Arc Maul Special 
- Branx Mk IV Arc Rifle 
- [Power Overload] (passive, every 30 team kills) 
- [Voltaic Emitter] (Ult)

Branx Mk III Arc Maul Heavy rotation:
Sweeping:  Light - Heavy Heavy Heavy > repeat
Overhead bash:  Heavy Heavy - Light Heavy Light Heavy > repeat 

Melee blessing: 
- Confident Strike allows you to facetank bosses and fits the support theme. If you are seeking more damage, Execution is the obvious alternative that synergizes best with this build.

Update: 2026-07-16 Lessons from Auric Maelstrom:  
- Obviously the game is not balanced around Auric Maelstrom, these were the temporary changes i made to obtain the survivor penance: 
Added Gunsmith to completely offset the arc rifle its long reload time, sacrificed 3 points to get there: Data Sensor Protocol, Uncapped Arrestor, Invigorating Overload
- Updated the trinkets in this guide for enhanced survivability
