At higher difficulties (Malice+) the Zealot is just… terrible. You take so much un-avoidable health damage you are downed again…and again… and again until the game stops being fun. The only way to play the Zealot effectively is to play passively and at range - which is the OPPOSITE to the intended p…

[image] Exile.NZ: So how do you avoid the ranged/fire/chip/stun-lock issues? THis is where I’m frustrated. I think the a main thing with zlot is to understand his 2 charge distances. When you use his ability (with no enemy lock) you will go maybe 20 meters? I’m not sure. What I am sure about …

think only issue is the “HP chipping” nothing more.

Lol wrong. I play on Damnation most of the time. Skill issue. On the real, try stacking all of your curios’ main trait into +18-20% health. It is way more useful than toughness, because of the “melee chipping / dmg bleed through.” I’m running 330+ base health. If you want to play with Martydrom sta…

I think you are right, and I also think the people who think it’s good are right. Zealot sucks at almost everything unless you are really, really good at playing this kind of character, and most people aren’t. The few who are wreck with it, though they have to use boring weapons instead of fun weap…

Eviscerator isn’t a boring weapon IMO. It’s the main thing that converted me from VT2 to Darktide even though Darktide is an unfinished game, and plenty of my VT2 tryhard buddies still play that game. With the right stats, perks, and blessings, I’m not sure what work it needs. It certainly DOES NOT …

By the way, about the “hard to get into melee range” point you made. In case you didn’t know, you can hold down your Ult key and target a specific enemy within 20 meters. Letting go after will rush your character all the way to that enemy, even ignoring any enemies between you guys. For comparison,…

Well, Zealot in VT2 is arguably the best melee since he got melee and range power buff and attack speed from his low hp passive buff. To high level player, he is somewhat weaker in killing power than WHC rapier head-shot only player some times, his immense attack speed gives him better survival abi…

[image] gordonz88: In case you didn’t know, you can hold down your Ult key and target a specific enemy within 20 meters Didn’t know it could go that far, but I did notice the highlight. I wanted and got the achivo for dashing a mutant early to get out of prison garb. Lot of things need more …

Malice is superhero mode, and Zealot makes it so trivial that it’s boring ngl not reading the whole thread rn, but on Heresy to make Thunder Hammer viable you can use Autogun with it. Recommend Mark VIII Braced version. Can write more about it later Eviscerator practice the moves and there is no…
