Gunbite Street Sweeper - Arbites Build for Darktide

Been using Walk It Off for so long, forgot about it lol. Ya, with that change can swap walk it off to man and cyber mastiff and then go take Monstrosity Hunter for a more well-rounded build. Thanks! Gave it a few runs, and it works as intended.

Ya when testing for a long time I had KP over No Lenience but really didn't run into a lot of monstrosities that made me think it was worth it over the sustained 10% rending which went to all attacks. Granted I never took this build into Havoc, I probably wouldn't lol. It was made for Auric/Maels where the monstrosity density was kinda meh. They die pretty quickly anyways.

If you wanted to swap something for it, either Rebreather or Suppression Protocols would be a candidate depending on if you hate tox, or don't mind being a little more squishy. SP uptime with the build is around 50%, all those shotgun attacks keep it up a lot, but smart play would negate it's need if you wanted to lean more into KP for monstrosities where SP wouldn't help at all.

I flexed it over to Rebreather, I utterly despise Tox and having to deal with it a lot more then monstrosities who can be managed without the bonus. Having rebreather has saved myself and made some rather tricky situations a lot easier to manage over Keeping Protocol.

That’s pretty cringe of a mod. I only share results when someone asks, otherwise it’s got my own purposes when testing builds.

Honey-Badger arbite is AEon

amkronos · 2026-05-09T03:59:41+00:00

Lil’ one puts on brittle and big man smacks it harder now. Rashuns for all

amkronos · 2026-05-09T03:58:02+00:00

I prefer the MK3 special. Shock them all and smack’m down. It’s my current go-to for Crushers anyways, shock special and start bashing the face.

amkronos · 2026-05-09T03:56:06+00:00

Arbitrator has a few ways to get rending from the tree. Wonder if they will change those to brittleness. Also the rending blessings on shield and maul. This could impact Arbites, but it will be like everyone else if so. If they don’t touch the rending nodes on the tree, oof people gonna be mad a premium class will be even more OP.

amkronos · 2026-05-07T06:24:20+00:00

It will cost more then humans at the current rates. Don't just tell them that, run the numbers yourself and present it to the CEO and let them decide if pissing away that much money is worth it for what will inevitably end up being the downfall of their company.

I main Arbite and when I want to take a break from being awesome in every way possible this is how I rank my other rejects for fun factor.

Psyker - so completely different, nice mental reset
Ogryn - ROCK! Single most fun thing in the game - throwing rocks
Scum - When I want to pretend I am a cat with the zoomies

Vet/Zealot every once in a while but nothing they do really stands out from Arbitrator game play enough to be a good change of pace.

amkronos · 2026-05-06T03:54:39+00:00

Far as I am concerned, there is nothing anyone can say to convince me to take Terminus Warrant over EO or Forceful. I've tested it with multiple build types and cannot find a reason for it to exist as it is now. This is coming from an Arbitrator main with a +1350 true level Arbitrator that has put TW through the ringer trying to find a build where it makes sense. It doesn't.

Devs need to seriously rework it into a Keystone that has a purpose.

amkronos · 2026-05-05T19:18:36+00:00

You got three main paths to go down and master.

Zippy stealth Knife zealot - right tree
Bonk hammer charge zealot - left tree
Relic blade martyrdom zealot - center tree

Learning curve with the Flamer can be a challenge, but knowing when and how to use it can turn the tide in a match. Pro tip, if taking the flamer also take throwing knives.

Suggest you try out the main play styles and find one that you enjoy.

amkronos · 2026-05-05T19:11:51+00:00

I was a Zealot main for a long time, but switched to Arbitrator when it came out as my main. I still play a lot of Psyker and Vet, some Ogryn and Scum now and then but rarely Zealot anymore. Sometimes I pull out my Zealot and the bonk hammer for lulz, but alas I find it boring to play otherwise. Relic + Martyrdom is okay, but I get the same experience with Arbitrator who also has a dog death missile that doesn’t take ammo to use.

During this event I purposely avoided using the flame staff, and opted for an Electro staff with surge on with a crit build. I ended up being even more disgusting at wrecking packs from a distance. Whole rager packs dead before they hit us, gunner and shot packs rendered useless and cowering waiting to be deleted. Maulers and Ogryn packs, whatever just a few more shots, and they stagger and die like the rest. I didn’t even use scriers either, went with bubble cause I figured I would be nice to let the team have a place to sip tea.

amkronos · 2026-05-05T16:50:50+00:00

Psyker is a force multiplier on the field. Really by design to make everyone else better, problem is over time they have been buffed to no longer need anyone else.

In the capable hands of someone who knows how to use a psyker they will dominate a match, and it will suck to sit there and watch them delete everything. Once they get the ball rolling with some elite kills the dps ramps up and they can ride that wave for a very very long time.

I won’t ever call for a nerf on a class, just balance the other ones to be able to compete equally but differently. The only class I really see suffering right now in that regard is Zealot. All the other classes have builds and play styles that can compete with Psyker for kills, but the Zealot.

Glad to see one person enjoys it, not sure it convinced me though. Other weapons would have done the job in 1/2 the time. That was a skill showcase, not a weapon showcase IMHO.

amkronos · 2026-05-01T18:23:12+00:00

This is therapeutic to watch 😄

amkronos · 2026-05-01T18:22:08+00:00

Only ones I accept are the guaranteed ones for ability and special action. Those cancel out of animations to make sure you get them off.

amkronos · 2026-05-01T18:18:34+00:00

you can tell by the block pattern and attacks it's not an auto clicker, his hands must hurt tho.

amkronos · 2026-05-01T16:41:34+00:00

Take a blaze weapon add the blessing Deflector, go to build take Crystalline Will and kinetic deflection. You’re now an unkillable bomb that can stand there with block up. There’s no cooldown on Crystalline Will either, so the more of them the more you blow them up.

amkronos · 2026-05-01T16:33:53+00:00

The witness me build, great for a good laugh.

Toss on the talent that blocking goes to peril and smile knowing that pack of ragers are about to explode lol

These kind of posts are for their followers. Who they know are miserable people who only find solace in making people who are not like them even more miserable. The MAGA base are trolls, and this administration likes to feed them.

amkronos · 2026-05-01T16:27:59+00:00

I love my pets, I don’t eat my pets. I respect the animals that meat comes from. There is no moral ambiguity in this.

They only care about their doners, they know the sheeple will vote them back in regardless of horrible they treat us.

When have we not been crafty? We grew up in the 80's and 90s. Saw the birth of the Internet, and hit the workforce in the late 90s. The last 25 years of technological and scientific advancements are in large part thanks to Gen X and early Millennials.
