Description
Solid All rounder build I've been playing in my group of friends as of lately without overspecializing into one role. My main strategy is to stay as a backline with the Voidstrike and deal with specials and or knock down larger targets to give my teammates breathing room or if you have a solid choke point utilizing charged shots for maximizing damage or just quick shots. The melee weapon isn't a set in stone philosophy either if you prefer the Blaze Force sword or Blaze Force Greatsword or any melee of your preference I just prefer the solid mobility and boss damage the dueling swords crit damage can deal out. Curios are also flexible the health curio is once again just my preference as "room for error" approach if you do get hit but if you prefer to swap it out for a one of your choice some prefer a 3rd toughness curio or stamina but I'll leave that to your playstyle. Everything after this is more or less just details on my build philosophy so if your not interested and just want the build give it a try .
Thought process behind the build
The weapons
Voidstrike and Dueling Sword
I prefer Surge and Warp Nexus cause it synergizes with scriers gaze very well and it boosts damage output and can make it a great horde clearing when you get your positioning right at a chokepoint. Perks for the Voidstrike i highly recommend taking both Carapace and Flak Damage for it it does solid damage to both categories and deals with bosses and specials efficiently. Dueling sword I chose Uncanny Strike for the brittleness de-buff which can soften up heavier armored targets and Thrust just pairs well with the quick charge attacks of the sword solid synergy feel free to swap for Riposte its a solid secondary option. As for the perks on the Dueling sword Carapace for dealing with crushers and heavier targets and unyielding cause parrying ragers with its alternate attack can deal with them quickly these 2 perks fill the gaps in the build and gives you a solid fallback option plus the mobility allows you to dodge crushers and get breathing room when dealing with ragers.
Blitz
Smite
Pair with Empowered psionics and scriers gaze and the rending perk it can deal with hordes along with the fact that if you time it right you won't Detonate from being overwhelmed with peril.
Ability
Scriers Gaze
I think this ones pretty straightforward Precognition for building stacks quick and Warp Unbound to prevent you from turning yourself into a grenade refering back to smite it also is nice in a pinch to be able to extend out the crowd control ability of smite and give your team some breathing room.
Keystone
Empowered Psionics
Pretty straightforward once again optimizes damage output of smite and paired with Scriers Gaze its a solid horde clear and pairs well with other teams weapons blessing Thunderous comes to mind so it synergizes well and has that niche to boot.
