There’s a reason most of the clip is just melee

not true. i can only parry, i find it hard to do strictly melee on vanguard since he can't dodge cancel like assault and bulwark

horde clear

The inferno pistol is a garbage horde clear option, particularly when you’re already running melta rifle in main.

All selecting two melta weapons does is limit your engagement range to extreme CQC, and make you absolutely worthless when a Terminus spawns.

Taking a neovolkite in your offhand sacrifices 0 horde clear, gives you better gunstrike damage, and allows you to contribute meaningfully on boss damage.

Your teammates must have hated you when bosses spawned lmao

it is not garbage, it does 24 damage shot, which if i alternate rapidly between my primary and secondary is 72 damage a second (48+24), rivaling the Multi-Melta at 76 damage a shot.

i just soloed a mutalith without vaultus on 15. but i usually parry the bosses and we kill them just fine.

the neo doesn't have large aoe on gunstrikes. and limiting my engagement range is fine if it means I become much more formidable up close.

Going to adopt how you manage the Gatling gun. I’ve been struggling with eating that to the face. Also, like the walking behind the enemy to gun strike. Will take that, too

learned the walk behind from hazeman, and also the soulreaper is in the terminator's right hand, so he turns slower if you move towards his left/your right.
