With flesh tearer/lacerate 10% crit damage and 25% carapace you can 1 shot crushers with no other buffs. The base attack will do ~3570 then the bleed will instantly do damage and kill them.
To oneshot crushers and do more damage to Anyone, change mercykiller to precognition. Mercy adds 60 to weakspot on bleeding targets. Precog adds 60% to finesse and doesnt need the target to be bleeding.
What i dont understand is How lacerate Will work with mercy killer since one works on non-weak spots and the other one on weakspots. Another thing is that mercy only works on bleeding targets, which you wont have since you are stealth going to backstab a fresh target. All that doesnt make sense to me at all.
Don't forget your Monumentum stacks. Also Antax Mk V Combat Axe, Limbsplitter, Brutal M, 20 Monumentum stacks gives you the same result without losing ability to horde clear.
@40KKensei my antax axe with limbsplitter and brutal momentum is pretty insane too. Little easier to use than the thunder hammer, and will 100% one shot crushers and chunk bosses. Need to try eviscerator to see if it's double tick gets the bonus too. Thunderhammer was 1 shotting bosses when I did it right though
I have knife that has all 80s stats and like I think 60 damage haven’t tried it on new update but knife and heavy attacks don’t work with my play style I don’t like how heavy’s put me in bad situations and I don’t wanna have to run the melee anti stun talent
Just started playing recently on xbox. I dont feel like this game really enables to much too stealth. The hordes are crazy and I feel like I am always surrounded, to sneak around during a real mission would be difficult wouldnt it?
The thing about stealth is your not like assassins creed where you take out enemies one by one, it's primary to sprint past hordes and take out priority targets, IE snipers, gunners, trappers and bombers. Or to try and stealth a rez on a teammate without getting attacked
Stealth allows you to be able to pick off the big targets as well as clutch revive and rescues. Was recently able to sneak my way off to my teammates who needed to rescued while I was the last one standing against a plague ogryn.
Why are you using Inexplorable Judgement though? It's one of the worst new talents in the game and you barely ever get to 20 stacks on higher difficulties.
@@40KKensei To say? I can get behind a skill being fun. I just thought perhaps you had better knowledge than me. The left side of the talent tree gives free 25% crit. I don't know if what's on the right trumps that at all.
@@40KKensei Dagger has 10% innate. That's not that much. The bleed talent gives 30% for 3 bleed stacks. Slap 5% from perk you're at 45% IF and ONLY IF the enemy is bleeding with 3 stacks of bleed (3 crits). If you don't have a bleed blessing you're only at 15% crit chance most of the time right? Stealth gives 100% crit but only for one hit. It doesn't linger. So where are you getting high crit without the bleed blessing? I have a blessing that gives 20% crit if you use the Special Attack and Stagger (punch) but yeah. I also can't live without the criticals reduce cooldown. I love stealth but I'm having issues with hordes and hitting weak spots / backstabs consistently in Maelstrom. I don't know. Just how it has gone for me.
@@40KKensei Also your build has no "Until Death" and even if you are so pro you never get hit to 1 health it's an amazing survival perk to have even after the nerf it got. Along the same path you can also pick: Duelist which works great with dagger. Your build is solid in the training arena but in a real game you will suffer against hordes and especially against 5-6 specials coming at you.
