Darktide Zealot | Burning-Crit Recon Lasguns Are AWESOME On Zealot | Monstrous Auric Maelstrom I-II

0:35 : Build
1:55 : Combat
A viewer noted that I haven't used Blazing Piety in forever so here's a setup with it. The Recon Lasgun synergizes perfectly with Blazing Piety for dealing with Monstrosities and teh occasional long-ranged nuisances beyond the range of Throwing Knives. The Crusher was brought along as a comfortable horde clearing weapon that isn't too slow without Martyrdom or Inexorable Judgement stacks built up.
If you're wondering how I have different sights on my guns, skins on weapons you haven't seen before or weapons on mine and others' backs it's from the Extended Weapon Customization mod that's available on NexusMods in the Darktide Section.

[@Vamp0613]

Damn dude, hope you stay safe and thanks for the patronage!

[@joeschmonium7452]

Keep pumpin out these amazing videos man, i've been enjoying the bolt pistol on veteran but you've made me consider the recon las again

[@Vamp0613]

Thanks, I just love this game so I make an effort to try every weapon available to make the case that practically everything in the game is viable in current balance.

[@AkiraDext]

Thank you Vamp, my favorite Darktide content creator, for yet another Darktide video

finally, gun zealot

[@Vamp0613]

Someone wondered why I haven't used Blazing Piety much lately and it's mostly due to being a melee haste shill from Martyrdom or Inexorable Judgement. The Recon Lasgun changes that due to its synergy with crit. I brought the Crusher along since its base moveset speed isn't too slow without either of said buffs.

when that piety is literally blazing

[@LordPratticus]

Could you explain further? 🙏

[@Vamp0613]

@@LordPratticus In regards to what? Not sure what you're confused on.

[@LordPratticus]

@Vamp0613 "melee haste shill from Martyrdom or IJ..."
not sure what that means

[@Vamp0613]

@@LordPratticus Martyrdom and Inexorable Judgement gives you melee attack speed on top of their other benefits while Blazing Piety only gives crit unless you branch left for its toughness reduction talent. Basically for many weapons that don’t necessarily have high crit or finesse damage bonuses the raw melee damage and haste bonuses from Martyrdom or IJ is a net gain over Blazing Piety.

Funny build. But much better on Veteran

[@Shajirr_]

Its not a particularly specific build. A melee-focused build which only uses a revolver in very rare cases will have like 95% of the same nodes.
Vet is just way more focused on ranged weapons.
