Bloodlust keeps the adrenaline bar topped up by tearing enemies apart. Dismembering someone nearby while adrenaline is running hands a large amount of it straight back. It is a heavy weapon pick in the Body tree. The build it fits already uses a shotgun or a machine gun at close range.

Effect

---

Adrenaline decays from the moment it is granted, so the mode normally has a fixed length. This perk breaks that by refilling the bar from kills, which means a fight with enough bodies in it can keep the mode on from start to finish.

Dismemberment is the condition, and that is what shotguns and machine guns do to anything at close range. The perk is therefore reliable with the weapons the Body attribute improves and almost useless with anything else.

How to Unlock Bloodlust

---

It sits behind the Phenom gate of the Body tree, so a long run of points comes first. The adrenaline mode has to be unlocked before it has anything to extend.

Character Builds

---

The build is a heavy weapon Body build running the adrenaline mode, which means it has already spent heavily on both branches. A shotgun is the best weapon for it, since dismemberment at close range is near certain.

Buy it at the Phenom gate once Adrenaline Rush is fully in place, and pair it with Calm Mind. One delays the decay and this one pushes the bar back up, so a fight with enough bodies keeps the mode on from the first kill to the last.

Notes

---

Calm Mind delays the start of the decay and this perk pushes the bar back up, so together they stretch the mode a long way.

Shotguns, light machine guns and heavy machine guns are the weapons it applies to.
