For lane, its good because of the +2 hp regen. In combo with Extra Regen + Monster Rounds, you have good lane sustain and dont need to worry about health whenever you take a break.

Dont forget to use pulses on objectives. Does big damage there too.

When placing pulses, use Vortex and/or Swap to keep them in the pulse

Having people in tight quarters, getting chased into one is ideal. Makes you feel like paradox. 2 Pulses + Arctic with a wall in tight quarters is death for them.

2 pulses + AlchFire will ensure you do great big damage. The -bullet resist items can grant you up to like 700 heavy melee damage (350 lights) on top of damage amp.

Nice, you scrolled down.

Fighting walkers is a great specialty since you will be doing damage to the walker and any enemies nearby. 2pulses+AlchFire and Shots. When you need to make an escape, use Carbine charge for fast dashes and move speed, and wall infront of you+Dash through into a funnel like a doorway.

With Stamina mastery, remember you can be speedy with double air-dashes. Carbine charge ground dashes are also quite fast.

MeleeDox - Getting Crushing fists after Alchemical + BR shredder is good, but what if you skip all CORE items and just buy Echo + alchemical, BR shredder and then Crushing Fists? That is at its lowest, 21k Souls doing 600+dmg per Heavy Melee. (Duration Extender on Pulse is also still important)

Carbine increases heavy melee range. Double-jump over an enemy while carbine charge and Hmelee down at them.

Im serious. Carbine charge + Jump Jump is crazy dodgy and still is in range for Hmelee with Crushing Fists.

Changes - ?? Feb 2026

Changed a bunch of items around. The core of the build stays as it is, while a bunch of optional windows lets you move into different strategies or playstyles. Particular recommendation towards Melee and the use of Warp Stone or Scourge. I also keep changing boots and move speed vs Stamina. Forgive me.
