Description

This is Theory Craft as there is no way to test this on 9/20/26 

Looking at the skill tree, I had thought I was going to have to ditch my poor finesse weapons Combat Knife and Dueling sword (or Tac Axe) and finally have to learn the shove heavy attacks of Relic Blade with Crit builds spamming Chorus changing, but then I saw the light

A light which anyone who got crit builds in Psykanium knows how OP it will be the combo of Zealous Pilgrim and Fire and Fury

SPAM light and LIGHT UP your enemies to ensure they also see the light. 

BURN and BLEED from either combat knife or dueling sword will make the cleave of Havoc a non-issue as you just double slash across the front of hordes getting all those lovely dodge bonuses.

 

Punish Impiety would be my pick for Combat Mark VI shove stabs speeding up attack speed in combo with Fure of the Faithful ALSO speeding up attack speed and Zealous Pilgrim ALSO ALSO speeding up attack speed netting a full 40% attack speed will have Zealot madd swinging like a Hive Scum but fewer drugs needed. 

 

Crit builds will have MASSIVE up time on this, probably around every 12 seconds getting another 4s of insanity burning.  

 

Should be interesting, glad so have so many options open up, might only slightly miss gold toughness now.   Range is users choice, if you go flamer pick dagger for nades.  Hubris, Good Balance, Blazing Piety are optional if you want 3 points to pick something yourself.
