What is the point of zealot?

[NPC]

I dont see how they are useful

[CH13F]

zealot supposed to be opposite of veteran. good at melee and weaker as ranged but here we got the vet with that bloody op sword. ofc you think this way. that thing should be removed from vet. or give better cleave to our evis and thunderhammer.

But whats point of melee with so many ranged enemys that take away toughness super fast?

That's why you have to rely on your Vet to focus on taking out any ranged unit he sees and try to avoid meleeing mobs if possible.

Zealots ability is designed to dive into ranged crowds and make them swap to melee

[Booh]

Leave any montruosity alone with a Zealot, throw a knife in the room, sit back and watch.
Best melee dps of the game ?

LOL you try to get a pub to do that, your vet will spend all his time on specials and elites because that's sexy, and you'll get melted by forty muppets with lasguns.

They have the ability to absolutely melt armored enemies extremely quickly. They mainly peel for your backline. Their role is extremely well defined and they excel at it.

I know that, but that's pretty much the answer to OP's question. At least when I play as Vet, I try my best to take out as many of the ranged units out with the feat that highlights them.

First, they don't. Second, you can dodge ranged attack.

Point of Zealot is to sacrifice one's life in glory for the Emperor... Hello? Do you even Darktide?

A class that cannot be killed is not an off tank it is by far the tankiest class in the game.

You talk like you haven't played higher than Malice.

Oh I have. You talk like you don't know that zealot is immortal lmfaooooooo. Literally look it up on youtube. they have 95% toughness redution so unless your playing like a dummy then you cannot die.

So if you don't break something you're an idiot. Why do you even damage reduction? Whole point is to not get hit in combat. If you're the kinda Zealot who just runs straight up to things and bashes them with left click whilst tanking damage, you're doing it wrong.

Also fire is a thing.

Also language protip: LMFAO = laughing my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass off. You wrote that as laughing my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass off off off off etc.

Going around phonetically pronouncing acronyms as words doesn't place you further up the picking order.

1. You got 2 dashes on lvl 30 so you can pretty much force multiple groups of ranged enemies to melee even on damnation easily.
2. You can still dodge ranged attacks with your movement.
3. In some situations you can stay back and cover for your long distance teammates. Zealot has the best close ranged weapon in game to compensate for that anyway :)
4. You got superior melee options too.
5. Forgot to say dashes also generate tons of toughness so even if you get gunned down you don't really lose any hp due to how much toughness zealot can generate.

Bro how old are you. You have awful reading comprehension. No one said anything about it having to be broken for you to play like an idiot. You know what else exist? Dodging, pushing the wave, resetting you toughness meter, wave controlling. These are the things I'm talking about when I say you have to play like an idiot to die. As in you don't have fingers. Everything you mentioned is what i'm talking about. Yes not getting hit is the goal doesn't mean your going to dodge 100% of attacks in the game so yeah having reduction for making a single mistake during intense combat sounds great to me. Im gonna pause her to ask wtf your problem is and why your so amped up over nothing. I don't need a pro tip the "ooooooo" are to show extended duration of laughing. Now that the lingo lesson is over, did you just ask why you need damage reduction on a frontline tank? Is that a joke? You know how you solve fire? Use your space bar. I don't even remember the last time I got hit by fire, and also I'm not playing anything wrong if It literally keeps me alive forever. Trust me I know how to navigate the combat in this game and no I don't need you advice on how to frontline I carry every match regardless of what class i'm playing. So again idk what your issue is with me or why you picked a stupid fight with zero points that went absolutely no where but you looking stupid, but that's a question for yourself. If you don't even know why there are extra "o's" on 2007 text message lingo I don't know why you think you would have the comprehension to engage in a conversation with me. They say when someone doesn't have anything intelligent to say they try to insult your character. Kinda makes sense why you started out the way you did. I don't need to be apart of any picking order to be correct. Nothing I have said is false thus far. So why would I need to be apart of whatever your standards are? I wouldn't.
