Today's Mordhau gameplay video features my Scavenger build, the Scavenger Knight. With this fella, I spawn in with full armor and all the perks I want/can afford. Then I head on out and pick up a weapon off the ground.
In Mordhau, scavenger builds are fun for many reasons. For one, it's almost like a little roguelite experience. You never know exactly what will (literally) drop for you to use, and considering you'll only have it for that one "life" it does have that gameplay style to it.
Also, for newer players, it forces you to use weapons you might not normally use, out of desperation. Normally skip over the Arming Sword? Well, considering that's all that you can grab before the enemies get to you, might as well make do with what you have.
Finally, Mordhau gameplay is best when you get to do silly things with the mechanics. You normally are stuck using peasant weapons (like the pickaxe or rake) with the peasant perk that makes you super vulnerable. But if you see a peasant get taken down, you can suddenly be a fully-armored knight with a pickaxe!
