Description

Divider

Nuncio-Aquila is good now! The simple change of it following you means that it now gives amazing value to the team. Gone are the days of being forced out of it's radius by huge waves of enemy density, now your shouty little buddy will remain by your side, wherever you fight.

We are running Nuncio with the dog and Execution Order . The dog is, in my mind, just the better of the two choices (between Dog/Lone Wolf), as losing the dog nerfs a huge amount of your damage output. Execution order is there mainly for Malocator which helps us turn over Nuncio more frequently, but is also just an incredibly strong Keystone thanks to the target outlines and the constant drip feed of toughness and buffs. We also get 30% extra Monster damage with Keeping Protocol , which we like as between the dog and some well placed shotgun shells, you can actually do some very decent Monster damage with the Exaction Mk VIII Exterminator Shotgun, plus the unique Brittleness special shell further boosts this. 

The rest of the build is fairly self explanatory. We have a lot of toughness regen, Dog boosting stuff and then damage talents that apply to both ranged and melee. Concussive is there to enable Opportunist on the shield and Target the Weak.

While we don't excel at anything we are kind of good at everything. The Branx Mk VI Shock Maul and Suppression Shield is a fantastic all purpose weapon with great horde clear speed, a stagger on demand special and respectable damage into Carapace. The MkVIII shotgun great for special sniping, and it's unique Brittleness shell is very worthwhile vs Monsters/Twins. The Dog's Remote Detonation helps massively with breaking up big clumps of melee elites. 

On the support side of things, we will be constantly buffing our team with Nuncio with some pretty significant buffs, especially the subnode Inspiring Recitation which is a huge force multiplier.

Changelog v1 to 1.1:
- Revive speed changed to stamina regen on curios
- High Voltage changed to Lightning Reflexs on Shield and Mace
- Fear of Justice changed to Retaliatory Force

Reasoning: 
Fear of Justice was performing very poorly, so I'm experimenting with a block orientated build and really liking how it performs. The spare point from FoJ was put into Retaliatory Force, which when added to our curio Block Cost Reduction, means we can block Havoc 40 Crusher overheads with over half our stamina to spare.
It is exceptionally easy to have the 25%+ strength bonus from Lightning Reflexes up basically all the time. Likewise, we have big bonuses from Perfect Blocking, which stuns an enemy and grants us 15% attack speed and damage from Retaliatory Force. Admittedly, this direction does have the issue of interfering with muscle memory as blocking is a last resort/safety measure in most builds. Here though, it's genuinely good and empowers us a lot.
I swapped Revive speed out on curious as between Inspiring Recitation and triple revive speed curios, the revive animation started to break/not work properly. 30% revive speed from Nuncio is more than enough to get your team mates up in time, and the extra stamina regen is great in Shield orientated builds with lots of blocks and pushes.
