I always played as an aggressive Zealot, and my Crit Blazing Piety playstyle often got me killed. With this build, I survive far more consistently while dealing massive damage to bosses and elites.
After spending a long time playing a poking Duelling Sword Veteran, this build let me keep that high single-target damage while becoming an excellent support for the team. If your Havoc 40 squad doesn't have an Ogryn, this build works extremely well as a frontliner while still providing strong support.
You can swap Benediction for Beacon if you want corruption restoration. Depending on your team's composition, you can also swap the Artemia for a Bolter. For curios, Damage Resistance (Gunners) helps you push through heavy enemy gunfire to force enemies into melee combat.
Stun Grenades are excellent for crowd control, emergency situations, and helping revive downed teammates—especially if you don't have a Skitarii with a Servo-Skull available to assist with revives. Nades can be replaced with Blades of Faith if preferred.
