I cannot agree with a slash build on him. It's sluggish, ineffective and slow.
Watched your vid and to your points on his shields and what to do in unsafe to charge scenarios.
- shield recharge delay is important to him.
- light melee. gives you plenty of time till you can charge again. spam it at the air if caught in a bad spot.
- PD does too good a damage esp against armor. the build should be revolved around it, with of course the acolyte.
- incendiary rounds for FE.
- he still shines better in smaller maps.
- It's no fun playing this kit off host anyway.
And frankly speaking I dont believe many decent players will find the time to use the slash on him than charging and PDing.
