Overview

  • Very generalist build using Power Overload for its immense node efficiency and relying on Noospheric Command for anti-special... anti-everything, actually. Use Noospheric as much as possible but keep a charge available for Voltaic Emitter.
  • We have medicae skull for clutching and gunsmith for truly dynamic combat. Voltaic Emitter gets us out of jams.
  • Galvanic Marking Array is the flex node, but it's also really good for hitting a 2-shot break-point on reapers and 1-shot on gunners
  • We also have access to all the auras, so swap if you feel like it.
  • In the case of Blight Spreads and/or Pox Gas, swap the flex node to Ablative Wards and swap the bottom curio perk on all curios to -15% corruption damage.

About the Pistol...

This build opts for raw damage instead of the very popular Infernus setup for multiple reasons:

  • Strength from Opening Salvo plays into the best part of the weapon: cleave
  • Faster kill-times really matter when you're in the thick of it and you need things dead
  • The break points are just as good if not BETTER. This build can two-shot reapers to the head when buffs are stacked or if any ally buffs you, this build can also one-shot gunners instantly
  • Crucian Roulette sucks and using Infernus with Surgical feels TERRIBLE

How good is it?

  • I regularly top damage and kills in Havoc 40 playing alongside GOOD players with good builds, even psykers.
  • I am of the opinion this is the most consistent build that can fit into any team composition as it can flex into any role.
  • Contrary to the Threat Level, this is a build made specifically for Havoc as Power Overload needs density to stack quickly. Do not expect this build to be optimal below Havoc 30.
