Whoever edited this, the Hunter segment’s final boss was killer. The blade barrage sequence and the match cut off healing grenade were great.
i was about to comment that
word, this is amazing editing guys
Timestamp?
Yeah it was! I came here just to mention this!
@@user-bc8nn3ub5t 10:12
I love cross, but the whole point of having heat rises with the build is to jump, snap your enemies and if you get enough final blows you get your melee immediately back. Takes time to get used to snap melee and it just wasn’t perfectly used here (he literally just said he’s not taking advantage of it as I’m typing this lol)
Personally I love sun bracers but it's just not for me. I can't stand the floatness of the heat rises jump. Id rather just use strand warlock or Void warlock to solo a dungeon but you have absolutely no one making builds for Void warlocks for Solo Warlords. It's all about Solar.
@@Zero-rj6re mostly because the artifact perks give so much free value. I wish they weren't so polarizing
Exactly this, your melees will get you heals just like the hunter build did man it's annoying to watch him play sometimes lol
@@smushycows2334 Mostly because solar warlock is the superior subclass 99% of the time
you dont have to float, heat rises refunds melee on kills with a small hop too
@@Zero-rj6re
For anyone wondering about the Warlock build, do not use it like he does here. the cycle is to usually open w/ heat rises+phoenix dive or a melee kill to get your restoration combo rolling, as long you then get solar weapon kills or ability kills (redundant w/ Karnstein) Empyrean continues to refresh the restoration X2 timer. Doing a little bunny hop whenever you get a kill if you have heat rises keeps it going but not super required.
You can basically run whatever you want for weapons but exotics like Conditional Finality, Sunshot or Dragons exotics. Legendary weapons being a stasis/strand fusion, Supremacy w/ Kinetic Tremors. Energy weapons are up to you but BXR, Zauli's, Trustee, Abyss Defiant etc. For Heavy of course the easy pick is Apex predator but if it's long range and a long battle, Cataclysmic or Briars contempt (in this case is good place to use Surrounded) but if you don't raid enough to have the rolls on these, you should probably stick to Dragons Breath
terrible build
@@MementoMoriv2it's literally the best survivability build in the game...
@@MementoMoriv2it’s a very strong build you need to have more then two brain cells to use
@@MementoMoriv2just say your trash and can’t keep up restoration x2 lmao
@AztecrossGaming I’m glad you liked my build so much! Even though it didn’t end up winning 😅
Actually gonna try it out myself cause it was very good and I was curious about using zaouli instead of epochal even though I love that HC 😅
Its not your build, its the same build every solo player on hunter been using the last two months with solar and last two years with arc.. its an old build..
@ChickenNuggetsIsLife I’m not sure you understand the concept of a build if your definition of it consists solely of the exotic armor being used. There’s a lot in this one specifically geared towards this dungeon and its encounters, from the subclass to the aspects and fragments to the weapons and the specific perks on those weapons.
@@gracedguitar1258 don't even respond to the trolls cause can't let everyone have fun
For what it's worth, I'm a warlock main and I still liked your Assassin's Cowl build better. Maybe if I had watched the Karnsteins build live I'd have a better idea of it but it just didn't pop off like the Hunter build did
As a hunter main it was extremely painful watching him not keep restoration going the majority of the run. A huge part of the build is keep restoration active with the throwing knives
Facts
I think a) he needs to ask the build crafters for more in-depth explanations of the build loops and b) when writing them, the builders need to make sure they don't leave out the obvious things. Because they aren't so obvious for people who don't play the class/build often.
They def need to have ppl explain how the build should be used lol even if you bunny hop and get kills it gives you energy you don’t have to consumer your nade or stay floating
Yeah this. Heat rises isn't for the restox2 on phoenix dive like you would with sunbracers. It's just for bunny hopping and getting kills. You can just swap to healing rift if you want.
Not just how, but why you need to do it that way.
Especially anything that may not seem important, but are critical to it working properly.
The transitions were pretty slick in this one
Had to do a double take with the healing grenade transition
The Karnstein build is meant to utilize more finishers and melee kills (do not have to be powered) to proc resto x2 and cure x3... Basically a get out of jail free card. Allows you to run non healing grenades. I'd say overall, Karnstein is the easier approach to Solar warlock sacrificing DMG output. I'd recommend for people who struggle with end game at level content to run a variation of this.
More experienced players can run Dawn Chorus throughout the whole dungeon with a solar legendary hand cannon/dragons breath and healing grenades.
Literally just use Sunbracers
I loved my dawn chorus build for this dungeon. I've run zaouli's bane almost exclusively this season in combination with dragon's breath. I'm lost as to why Cross wasn't using it in the runs. It's basically a legendary sunshot.
@@joeshmoe2782it’s a build battle. He uses what they submit in the build
@@sayarimamani3605 If you mess up the loop on sunbracers it's a little painful and you don't have resto x2. With Karnstein, u just get a finisher and you're good.
@Xxstud11xX Im having a tough time thinking both build submissions ran that same hand cannon. Im pretty sure they only specified the exotic of choice, and then allowed for some exceptions in the final boss, but if im wrong, that's fine. Both those submitters would likely really enjoy Zaouli's if they like that cand cannon for their ad clear.
As a fellow hunter main, I felt that jump death in my soul😂😂😂
Karnsteins really are supremely clutch, rework made them freaking amazing.
I will have to try them, I've been playing more hunter this season than anything
@@fuhkyu8146 That hunter bug got a grip on ya, can't blame ya either, class is very fun. But ya, try em out and if you're not adverse to loadout swapping for dps, they're insanely good at keeping you alive for general play.
Karnstiens with glaives
@@tysonkrunek4132 Karnsteins on strand warlock is actually insane, but you're better off with Warlords Sigil imo
Karnstein on strand with Vexcaliber has been the most fun this season.
I had a similar karnstein build, but had icarus dash, heat rises, incendiary grenades, and building as much into scorch and ignitions as well as getting my melee back. Literally had infinite melee, health, and chaining ignitions as long as i kept my feet two inches off the ground. It was also disappointing to see aztecross play the karnstein build so wrong 🤦♀️
Exactly it makes me wonder is this what the titans felt with the stronghold build?
@@RecklessWyrmit’s exactly how we felt
Kinda the trade off with trying out builds is you’re far from a master of them so some feelings will get hurt. But ..here for it regardless and loving the content
If you play karnstiens and basically just play like a bonk hammer titan you are basically unkillable, at least in my experience
For the first build using the artifact mod that gives ignitions on precision kills over argent ordinance could've helped a lot, along with using the MELEE MORE! And on the second build the idea is to get restoration going with the heat rises Phoenix dive and then keep it going with ember of empyrean, which would've helped a lot.
the restoration with phoenix dive is a backup.. easy enough to get x2 going with a finisher when using karnstein. and it doesnt cost your grenade
You don't need to proc heat rises AT ALL especially with karnstein they give you the same thing.
First build he was keeping certain targets alive for his finishers, that seems to be why he didn’t.
For the karnstein build you don’t need resto grenades. You get way more damage if you use fusion grenades paired with scatter signal, sunshot and a bait and switch Apex.
genuinely surpised i didnt see a single navigator strand titan, but also happy because the community is keeping it a secret
You’ve intrigued me with navigator. what’s up w that.
@@Ethereal.18lets you spam grapple melee and do an incredible amount of DPS with banner of war and synthos (like one phase most dungeon bosses easily)
Every single wr run is a navigator titan but for 99% of players the skill requirements is way too high
Not that the community is keeping it secret, more so everyone knows about it and it’s kinda boring at this point
Everyone already knows about it, it’s just the navigator version of the build has been largely adopted by the super hardcore community, like Salt
Karnstein works amazing with glaives. Especially vexcalibur you can get a overshield with restoration 2x and even run a strand subclass to add woven mail on top of all that. 3 subclass buffs in 1
Sure, but you're not extending the restoration buff without ember of empyrean fragment.
@kassaken6521 after you get a finisher every glaive kill will reproc the karnstein perk so your still extending restoration x2.
@chrisbarnesbarnes8332 I see. Does that include normal glave melee kills or special amo shots only?
@kassaken6521 it's normal melee kills. The shots won't proc the perk because they are not melee kills. So it's really easy. Just go around poking and blocking. Get a finisher when you can incase x2 runs out
Welp I know what I'm trying tonight
Legit surprised at how well that Hunter build was. Might try it myself tbh cause i favor those types of builds vs caveman dmg stuff.
As a Hunter main, it was very clear that Cross is *not* a PvE hunter main - there were lots of places where his melee and finisher usage showed that. (No disrespect meant, he plays Warlock and Hunter way better than I play Titan or Warlock). That's a very nice, slick build.
Cross I just hope you know this has been one of my favorite series to watch and I hope it continues
Transitioning on them healing nade edits was beautiful
The run with the warlock at the start. When crow pauses for Petra. Perfectly fit in with him falling off the edge like crow was like "oh shit"
The sad ‘yah’ when he banned Grace is a moment.
Bro I just got so happy when I saw build battle in the title this is my new favorite to watch bro cross keep it up man!!
Then edit around the 10:20 mark with the grenade throw was sick!
Thank you cross and the maker of the solar Hunter build, I’ve been starting to actually make decent builds recently and this is very nice. The little overall build card at the beginning is very helpful too
Props to the editor, those transitions were smooth.
And that „Yaah!“ at the end - you can feel his sorrow here.
song choices for the warlock run were so good in this video
Whoever sent that warlock build disgust me I’m currently saving up my point to drop my version of that build but it’s 10x better the vamp build but jeez
As part of the Warlock council, we do not claim that one.
Great editing in this build battle video, buttery smooth transitions. Cross is hiring some top talent.
Hhahaha😂 love the shuttle yahh at the end lol. I agree with Cross I enjoy the knife trick assassin build better. I understand why the warlock is better but my play style, I use Assassin's Cowl on almost every subclass and it just took damn good. With a heavy heart..... Yahh
Absolute fire editing, well done
12:30 You'd think as a warlock main Cross would know how good heat rises actually is in pve XD
he's not a warcock main
@@nightlysam2076 its a running joke
@@fresnokila3 glad someone gets it
@@fresnokila3 ahh
I never thought to come the day hear that such a feeling down Ya!!
Love the content, keep up the Great work you do Aztec!!! I also like the shards of galanor build as you can get atleast 2 to 3 supers especially on 2nd encounter!!!
When I did my solo, I was hotswitching between karns and apotheosis veil w/ well, so I had to be on solar, but I feel like if you're mainlining karns for the entire thing you can just put it on something like void or strand warlock and be much more effective, tbh.
you gotta get zaoulis bane to replace epochal asap
Warlock main only since D1 beta. I’ll send you some builds that’ll do warlocks justice.
Got my first solo flawless on Warlord's ruin with consecration pyrogale Titan. Love that build to death.
The transition on 16:00 was smooth, I need to double check to see it
I ran Assassin’s Cowl Hunter for the first two encounters. The only problem with that build in regards to Warlord’s Ruin are the shield wielding Scorn assholes lol. I ran a Void Lucky Pants build for the final encounter and between Tether and Malfeasance it kind of made it a joke. It was an easy two phase/rotation.
After finally solo flawless this dungeon I can agree that a Malf lucky pants void build absolutely demolishes the final encounter. I tried assassins cowl on solar for way too long and just found it too difficult to maintain.
Both these builds look good but have obvious flaws
Imo the better version of that first build is to run golden gun instead of blade barrage, then quick swap to celestial right before DPS every time. That’s how I got my solo flawless of WR
Fair but this lets you get multiple supers per phase on the ogre Boss
@@Ass4ssin007Only if you use Shards of Galanor. Hunter is the class that relies on loadout swaps a lot in both raids and Dungeons
@@andreymavian3400 def not raids but solo dungeons yes
I really love this series keep up the good work
That first hunter build as Jack of Blades vibes.
May be an older video now, but that healing grenade transition was smooth!
Make sure your finishers are on the solar ones, it will extend the duration of radiant and resto.
Heat rises works with pheonix dive to grant x2 restoration. Thats the purpose of heat rises over icarus dash
Are you sure you need phoenix dive resto here? That loop is the only loop you have with sunbracers. I think heat rises here is to keep getting your incinerator snap back quickly for more melee kills either extending resto x2 or proccing resto x1.
@nullpointer5603 not saying you do, just that is why he has heat rises
Transitions in this are S tier. 15:05 made me rewind to watch it 3x
I feel like that warlock build definitely needed more heat rises usage and probably more aerial kills for the melee energy as well, not sure why you'd need Karnstein for that though since you can get resto x2 from just using pheonix dive while heat rises is active.
Man the editing in this is tight 🤙
Calis mini tool if you can control the recoil a little bit is a MUST have for the final boss room if you want to rock Dragons breath or any other exotic
Solo hunter in general is busted this season, so nighthawk/ shards will always reign supreme. However, i have never seen cowl with knife trick and i love it. Super cool utility
My personal favorite Assassin's Cowl build is Arc, but this video did inspire me to try out a Solar variant, and it is rather nice. (Haven't been playing much Solar since what they did to my poor Young Ahamkara's Spine, the bastards.)
BUILD BATTLES BACK BABY!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I love Assassins Cowl.
I use it on Strand with the Grapple Melee
The editing with this music is fire 🤌
Im gonna start using that solar hunter build. I love assassins cowl on arc but idk why I never thought to try it on something else.
i already have my own Karnstein build, and yes, it’s not as much damage as the Hunters or Titans, but survivability is definitely there. once we get the new Solar Super in Final Shape, the damage will go up. (also solar souls will be extra damage too)
Healing grenade with karnsteins is wild
You're supposed to eat it. Not throw it like cross did because it lets your dive grant you restoration x2 which carnsteins can extend
@@theleviathan2627you dont even need it, just do a finisher and get resto x2, i run fusion grenade and swaped to apotheosis veil for damage, easy 2 phase in the final boss.
I use the same hunter build, but use Malfeasance instead (yes, without lucky pants and it's still great).
Slick editing!
Who ever edited this. Props! 👌
I'm a warlock main, and I would've voted for the Assassin's Cowl build.
These transitions are crispy asf😍
may have to try that hunter build.I havnt solo'd yet for gr 11.
I love the weak 'yaa' at the end lol
Sunbracers are the clear option. Resto x2 will keep you alive just fine on its own. Sunbracers pair with dbreath well on all 3 bosses. You can 2 phase the ogre if you are able to proc sunbracers on all 4 totems simultaneously using dbreath/fusion- I used Nox perennial. Final boss you can extend resto x2 and proc sunbracers on taken eyes if you are careful and cook the boss.
Still sad that cross doesn’t understand phoenix dive + heat rises
Just a touch of incinerator snap and heat rises Phoenix dive = ignition. And if you're running sun bracers, the ignition from that combo counts as a melee kill. So not only do you get instant extended restoration x2, you also proc sunbracers
@@kassaken6521 I see so many people run sunbracers with healing rift and think “you’re missing out”
A friendly reminder, player error will kill you faster than any inefficient build can
Icarus dash would be throwing for this warlock build because with heat rises, kills in the air will give you melee energy
The music at both the ogre encounters should be the dungeon soundtrack
Wouldnt have thought the warlock main would be so bad at using warlock. But still that warlock build is trash, sunbracers would have been significantly better allowing for good ad clear, infinite resto, debuff and damage when paired with dragons breath. Also cross doesn't use heat rises to get his melees back super quick.
Cross'' "Ya!" was much less enthusiastic this time around. Agreed that the Hunter build was very nice. Inspires me to move away from my beloved Star-Eater Scales to use more Assassin's Cowl.
I run a similar build but with izanagi/epochal/cataclysmic for last boss. Usually can 2 phase.
Gotta use DB correctly. Bunny hop kills to get your melee back quicker with heat rises in-between each plate on the ogre. The ogre is an easy 3 phase even while using karnstein. Also always get resto x2
Sunshot is the GOAT. My sun is a beast. :')
The "good Ole 20 phase" got me 😂
THIS is what makes u great cross... WELL DONE!!!!!!
The Hunter build is extremely solid , I’d only change on the final encounter use sun shot and apex predator to guarantee the boss moves to the next plate and sun shot genuinely does make it so easy.
What legendary handcannon is he using in the first build?
Sidearm heliocentric QSc with heal clip and incandescent is pretty good also
2nd encounter left side is harder to get the relics activated. Do right, makes it so easy.
Nooo man that warlock embarrassed us. I gotta step up now.
i feel like the first build with all the survivability would possibly be better with the same scatter signal with controlled burst n overflow paired with bait switch apex predator perhaps, then you could actually sunshot aswell
The hunter build was very similar to what I used for my solo flawless. I'm confused by Cross's use of Dragon's Breath. If you fire it once, you switch to the fusion until you hear a second ignition (usually about three shots) and then switch back to DB and fire again. You can put out a lot more damage than what he was doing.
Also Argent ordinance should be replaced with rays of precision for free ignitions and add clear.
The sad "Yaah." at the end lol
can you do a vs for solo builds with nuances like loadout switching and no artifact mods etc. in the future ?
How the thumb artist does those renders of the characters? I love that detail
I like this series a lot
Curious to try the celestial swap with the hunter build he was talking about
Your editor is Goated.
I’ve switched from solar HC to BXR with demo/Incan for this dungeon and it seems to work better
Cross you're not seeing a lot of Titan builds cause 1. We don't have a lot going on right now that's either new or hasn't been fuckin NUKED by Bungo, 2. You forget we are a minority in the class population compared to the other 2 classes.
Damn editing ❤
So heat rises gives you a crap ton of melee energy when you kill scorched enemies, even if you don't eat a grenade. You don't really have to even be In the air, just a quick jump before the ignite is enough.
Nice transitions on rocket aim and firing
Why run healing grenade with Karnstein’s?? Get melee kills for Resto 1x and Finishers for Resto x2 that’s where the heat rises should come in handy. Getting kills while in air to keep melee energy full. You can also run Dawnblade instead of Well if you want a lil more DPS. BUt you can def add more damage and play more Agressive if you lean into the Melee’s and finishers to keep the Resto going.
This is one of the closest build battle results since I think the first one lol
Healing nade should be eaten to proc heat rises, then you jump when using snap, then use you hand cannon for easy melee recharge.
Used Pre Astynax Bow Buzzard w/ KT and DB for every phase
Shaxx and Mara doing the hanky panky in the dungeon is crazy
I got a karnstein build that utilizes glaives 😊 now that combo is un killable
The big error here with the Warlock build was going solar in the first place. Karnsteins grants restoration on any subclass. Strand being the fairly obvious choice here. The melee range is borderline infinite and you get three. Cure and resto on demand. Then - add a glaive. Every melee kill prolongs or gives you resto and kicks in a cure 2x. And then, take that glaive and make it Vexcalibur. Now you have void overshields. But that's not all, now make sure every orb you pick up gets you the strand overshield too... plus you can suspend every damn thing. As for Heat Rises, it's the only choice for PvE between that and Icarus. Icarus dash is just a feel-good movement choice, and it's strong in PvP. In PvE, heat rises gives you melee back so fast it's not even funny. You don't even have to proc Heat Rises, you can just bunny hop into the air and any damage you're doing - like from grenades - just fills your melee immediately.
bro the ya at the end was so energy-less lol. also u had a lot of warlocks in ur chat clearly lol.
