now i feel bad, if you want tips for zealot hop into the darktide discord and ask questions. lotta people including me who are more than happy to help

Hehe Thanks for the feedback. I will learn!
I only posted because I've been having fun with it, and doing well on Heresy and Malice with this build.

I will take a look at more of the options, since basically I have only recently come to have a fighting style :)

I'm new to the game and refining my fight styles.

I respect the effort, but I promise you're gonna get nothing but hate from this. You missed alot of meta/broken talent nodes, and messed up the weapon/curio setup.

Today I will play the character that’s centered around dodges and crit and not build around dodges and crit

surely people would post good guides on steam, right?
look on steam
worst shite you've seen in your entire damn life

would you rather have reload speed or flak on a boltpistol? reload speed gives you ~1 sec of reload time and flak lets you one tap gunners with puncture.
everything else here is wrong

this is better
look out for reflags in similar build by looking for
reload speed as a perk on weapons
matry builds that use the talent martyrs purpose or do not have enough curio wounds
any build that uses the middle of the tree
any build that uses beacon of purity instead of benediction

this build is a meme build and should not be regarded as "good" past the malice difficulty, i genuinely have never seen a worse zealot build in my life i'm sorry man
