Fury of the Faithful
In Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, Fury of the Faithful is a Zealot class active ability that involves a rapid dash forward, replenishing 50% Toughness and granting a 20% attack speed buff for 10 seconds after the dash. It offers versatility by letting the Zealot close distance on ranged enemies, apply pressure, or even stagger them, while also being able to be used with different builds for enhanced attack speed on both melee and ranged weapons.
Benefits
This ability provides several benefits:
Ranged Immunity: You become immune to all incoming ranged attacks while dashing, except for flames and nets.
Critical Hit: Your next melee hit is a guaranteed critical strike.
Armor Penetration: For a short duration, all enemies are vulnerable to ranged attacks.
Attack Speed & Toughness: You gain +20% Attack Speed and replenish 50% Toughness.
Fury-Related Talents
This keystone modifier allows critical hits to contribute to triggering a more powerful version of the Fury state, boosting your offense even further.
Some ability modifiers allow allies to benefit from the critical strike chance provided by Blazing Piety, synergizing with other "fury" talents.
This talent allows the Zealot to gain momentum through movement and successful hits, which can be used to charge Fury.
