The first version of this build was what launched my channel last year, so this build will always be extra special to me. It seems that I've been known more as the Stasis guy recently, but those of you who have been here from the beginning know that this is where it all started. Hope you enjoy the Lightfall-evolved version of the build!
Great vid! Always love your builds. Only changes I'm really making is that I'm taking off the duplicate heavy handed and bomber mods since duplicate mods have surprisingly diminishing returns right now. A second heavy handed mod only brings the orb from ~0.75% to ~1% super recharge per orb and a second bomber mod only changes the grenade return from 12% to 15%. I replaced them with the firepower mod in the arms and special finisher in the class item. With the amount of orbs you make and the synergy with the assasin's cowl, this makes ammo concerns with any double specials irrelevant. Great stuff as always mate! Been rocking a similar build to this for solo stuff but reworked it with better stat armor after watching this.
Your original arc hunter build changed the way I played destiny, thought about builds and hunter, and made me fall back in love with the game. Thanks for all you do man, there is no one more excited than me when you post new builds.
i was just getting into d2 in season of plunder when i saw your original build video and it was the first build that i really got into and showed me what destiny could be all about. thanks for updating it with the new mods system mate, best of luck to you moving forward 👍
Build this just now and never had this much fun with this particular build. The ability to cockblock both Unstoppable and Overloads with ease is a huge boon. Thanks for this and subbed too.
It's really satisfying! Barriers die before they realize you're smashing their face in, and Overloads and Unstoppables get stunned and subsequently deleted.
Was low-key waiting for this. Used your old arc strider build and your guides last season to solo flawless Pit of Heresy, Shattered Throne and Prophecy. Solo'ed Duality as well, but I died to Caiatl once, so have to try that one this season again, as well as getting the others done.
I just want to say thank you for taking the time to fully caption your videos. I'm hard of hearing and it's so much easier to follow and much more enjoyable than the automatic captions !
After watching more build videos recently and coming back to this one, I just wanna say showing this off in LEGENDARY AVALON instead of some fucking random ez mode activity like most other D2 UA-camrs is awesome... Thank you
Thanks, glad you appreciate it! It bothers me too when a "broken busted build" is shown in a normal mode Lost Sector or even worse, a Patrol Zone. Any gun that shoots straight and some movement key input will "break" patrol...
Awesome build! So happy to see how this build has translated to the new mod system in Lightfall. This was the first build I saw on your channel, super glad to see it still be so strong!
Bro my clan loves these videos. Whenever we running through destroying everything we imitate your voice. “ Do you want to fuxx everything up and shi1 on your enemies?” Lol.
Nice build, Dorvarich. One my favorites. Most other Hunter builds - even solid ones - feel weak in comparison. I just find myself praying for ads to appear…
Glad you enjoy it! I ended up falling back on this build to finish the Day One, switching off Void Hunter which is super pushed this season with the artifact. Even then, this one managed to feel amazing.
@@Dorvarich Tbh I thought I would have to step away from Arc Hunter with all those Strand/Void/Solar surges and mods, but I can't, it's too perfect for me. I wonder how it's going to feel when it'll be Arc season.
@@BrettFairchild I won't be making a video on it because it's built around the artifact, but here's a DIM link: dim.gg/of2s5ui/Orpheus-Deadfall-Double-Special The gist is that Volatile Flow means you don't have to use Gyrfalcon's, so you can use Orpheus Deadfall instead + Echo of Reprisal to chain tethers back to back. Wavesplitter has been sleeper OP for a while but the addition of Reaper really pushed it over the edge, and now the community seems to be waking up to it. I'm going to miss my secret OP trace rifle once it gets the inevitable nerf.
Huh, I've been waiting for your take on the updated build. You are the singular reason I have ever considered building out my Hunter, with how little use I found for them in PvE before that. As a Titan at heart who misses his melee centric approaches, this build more than tides me over the recent synthoglaive nerf.
@@Dorvarich Haha, yeah, I know; still makes me feel itchy that the artillery archetype tends to have the better melee fantasy than the "at close quarters, a fist is better than any gun/fists don't need reloading" archetype. Still love Siegebreaker as much as when I first laid eyes on it though. This just gives me a very good reason to flesh out my other characters while keeping in line with my personal favourite power fantasy.
You made this build the first time, around the time I was getting into Destiny. I was mostly a solo player and still kind of am but, thanks to you I’ve solo flawlessed every dungeon and a few master nightfalls. I would consider you my “Destiny Mentor”. You taught me how to excel in this game when I was brand new and now I teach new lights in my clan and I’ll always appreciate you for that. Keep up the great work my man.
a variation to this is to ignore your grenade and use spark of haste to increase all three of your top stats by 30 and run both amplitude and feedback.
Thank you so much I've been waiting for this since lightfall day one so many ppl have doubted me on using ur og arcstrider build but then when I have triple their kills and 90+ percent of my kills are orbs they change their tune I love this build
Since arc 2.0 I’ve been using a similar build. Made this Warlock main really enjoy the Hunter class. It’s also very satisfying to run around punching stuff and getting your energy right back 😩
Much appreciated! I'd give people benefit of the doubt though when it comes to slightly more obvious build archetypes like melee Arcstrider. There's absolutely no way I'm the only one to build it like this.
@@whatifwaterwaschunky7199 yea that’s why I said I’ll update my old arcstrider build with this one. My bad if I sentenced that as if I didn’t see the old version
In the grand scheme of things I dont really know how optimal it is but I feel that I must say that Conditional Finality, the RoN exotic shotgun, slots in really well here. You're trading melee damage from one-two punch for pretty great utitlity in the form of strong cc from being able to freeze and shatter any threatening target that isnt a boss level enemy to then being able to ignite them for some decent damage and killing nearby trash. Both Shattering and Ignitions stun unstoppable champions as well. Using this shotgun alongside a crafted ikelos smg with voltshot with this build has felt like an absolute dream. I also use a crafted commemoration with repulsor brace and volatile flow from the artifact as LMGs are really good this season and the void overshield is nice for suvivability. Put simply, not only would you have access to 4/5 sublclass verbs at your command: Freeze,Ignite,Jolt,Volatile. But you'd also have all 3 champion types covered: Shotgun stuns with ignite and shatter, Jolt on its own stuns overload champs alongside an smg. and a void lmg can deal with barrier champions with volatile rounds and in the same breath, you've got both close range and long range engagements covered. Sorry this got to be so long but I cannot help but gush over how this combination has felt for me especially with the build provided in the video. Truly the first setup that has clicked with me on such a level that I had to just share. Regardless, I wish nothing but goodluck to all those chasing the raid shotgun!
I've used this build since last season. I named it "Arcy Punchy Bullshit." THIS season, holy cow this build is much stronger. Glad to see this build being covered.
I need you to make posts more regularly! You are my favorite destiny content creator! The calm voice, how you explain builds and walk through of solo flawless is very easy on the ears!
I came here tô thank you for the most incredible build ever! With this build i solo all 2 dungeons, profecy and crasp, the minimum i can do tô thank you is tô like every vídeo!
Thank you for your insights, I've been wondering how to update some of the old builds and your first arc strider vid was amazing... Really became one of my partners main builds (I main warlock or it would be mine lol) but we appreciate all the time you take testing and making these... Please keep up the great work sir!
Did all Day1 encounters and every content with that build, still working fine. Just switching for Heavy Finder/Scout +Head-On on helmet Surge on boots if needed with Dilation on cap. For champions, specially unstoppable using Leviathian breath is a good option since everything else is easy to cover and still good weapon to dps boss.
Ever since season of Plunder and your original Arcstrider video I’ve been subbed, and I’ve also run a personalized variant of it ever since. Day one Lightfall I scrambled to reconstruct the build and found it only got stronger. However… thing I’d like to point out is that Spark of Haste grants a bonus of THIRTY to the upper three stats for just sprinting. So, if you find yourself short on stats, Haste could be a good flex slot fragment.
Best of luck! It's a little bit awkward this season since we don't have any Arc surges, but even then it still performs well. Can't wait until we get an Arc surge season!
Thanks for the update build. I loved the original one and had some success with it, but with changes to resilience and mod system, I found doing solo dungeons with the new one more difficult. Unfortunately now you have to play better and more careful, because the build won't do it for you, that sucks :P
I'm surprised you're not running the new "Spark of Haste". I found it to be pretty helpful, and similar to one of your mod setups from last season. As always, a great video!
I never played shadow keep (I'm a new player) and never wanted to, but I've been running this build without the assassin's cowl and it's still pretty OP. This vid may have given me just a bit of nudge to finish that campaign to get it.
try using Heartshadow sword with this so that you can use the heavy attack while invisible on bosses or something big to weaken them and stay invisible also giving you a speed buff when invisible and wielding the sword ( though it doesnt stack with amplified )
Ah, I've used this build since before I subscribed. As for an exotic, I recommend using Wish Ender! Infinite ammo + intrinsic Antibarrier makes you an all-around Champion slayer. + It's a long-range weapon. For my heavy, I just use Hothead but tbh you could also use linears or whatever else you want.
When lightfall dropped, i personally updated your old arc build focussing more on survivability and not grenades. I barely use nades with this build. Hence, I use Better Already leg armor mod, which has saved me a couple of times and I use finisher mods in my class item to fully restore HP when we're in a dicy situation. Other than that, I also focus on heavy weapons, as those are very important for dealing with bosses. So, I use heavy ammo finder mods and weapon surge mods, which can also help boost one-two punch just a lil bit more. Also, are you sure 2x Heavy Handed has any benefit? I've noticed with just 1, you can still keep making orbs with every powered melee punch.
You can use same build with Liar's Handshake for more dps but without invisibility, it's perfect for gambit (last time more than 50k dps to boss), same dungeons etc is really cool :)
You guys know what I hate about being a hunter...ALL OF OUR BUILDS ARE ABSOLUTELY NUTS. I have no idea what to play! Gyrfalcons...assassins cowl atcstrider..frostee revenant! So many great choices!! This video is dope
Happy to see the updated version of Arcstrider! This build and your guides got me solo flawless through Shattered Throne, Pit, Prophecy and solo not flawless through Spire. You do great content. Any thoughts on running a copy of Emergency Reinforcement instead of a resist mod on the chest piece?
I don't like Emergency Reinforcement because it's only a 10% resist. But it would certainly fit into the build since there's nothing else competing for armor charge stacks.
Man, great to see non-titans succeeding so well with end-game-viable punch builds. Maybe someday my punchman will shine again without instantly getting nerfed or having to solely rely on throwing hammers. Seriously though, this hunter build slaps.
Have you tried Skullfort with Thunderclap and Heavy Handed + Kickstart + Invigoration and Hands-On? I wouldn't recommend it for endgame content but it's a really fun way to build into the punch fantasy on Titan, while getting your super extremely fast.
@@Dorvarich Yeah I have. It's pretty good. The only issue is like you said, it's not good for endgame, and in group content I find most of my potential melee targets get killed before I can get to them.
Holy crap, 25k now. I found the OG when you were at a couple hundred. I of course built the original when it debuded and really never took it off until post LF campaign (it took me through the entire story). I'm having fun with hanging stuff up rn and Arc is out of pocket until S21 but still this is very strong. Looking forward to your take on both the Grapple and Suspend Hunter. That's coming, right...
I actually already did Suspend Hunter! It seems the algorithm kind of fizzled out on that one for some reason, but here it is if you're interested: ua-cam.com/video/1NpqgrHNiVk/v-deo.html
This build is fun but it's maddeningly inconsistent on heals/invisibility. I've died on legendary brakkion about 120 times now and most of them are because I just don't get the proc when I need it.
There's no -15 cap on Legendary Exotic quest, just like lost sectors. So if you were 1820, that's -10 below the content light level. (Not a massive difference, but worth mentioning). I'm seeing tons of people confused and not understanding that the -15/-20/-25 modifiers only applies to certain type of content like NFs.
Are you sure about that? The "Mettle" modifier ("this activity has a fixed difficulty") is listed on the Legendary version, and even when I go in a 1827 the enemies still have red sword icons. Unless the cap is just significantly higher than 1830.
ive used this build with liars handshake since arc 3.0 and believe me you still have plenty of survivability in endgame content, cause what i think he forgot to mention is that procing cross counter on liars also heals you, so basically if you run liars over assassins you lose the invis but you get a significant chunk of bonus damage and you get healing on every other HIT rather than on a kill like assassins, and liars doesn't require a charged melee like liars. so when you combine that healing with the healing you get from constantly jolting then you can win punch offs with bosses and champs in GM content without breaking a sweat, as long as they cant one hit you
That last part is what got me when I tried Liar's in GM's. There are just so many 100-0 one hit attacks. I do play at 175fps so framerate-based damage might be part of it.
@@Dorvarich there are a lot of one hit attacks but don't forget you do have guns as well, Ill usually just use my abilities until there the possibility of a one hit then I pull out my weapons
Ay!! This is a build I've refined and tuned in favor of endgame PvE! I have some fragment recommendations if you're looking to generate HUGE orb potential.
I never took off liars handshake pre-lightfall. This is a great build for uber end game stuff, but I think for the every day mundane activity liars is still better. As long as I keep hitting punches I can out heal any boss
Really enjoy the build and dungeon videos! Is this build still viable or has bungie nelf anything on this build? Aiming to do solo flawless dungeons while I wait for content to come.

7:26 the way that knight just got banished into the shadow realm with a casual punch was funny
Your first version of this is what brought me from a solo player that has never done any endgame, to a god soloing all dungeons. Thank you brother
Looking forward to trying this build out. Your old Arc build helped me get my first solo flawless dungeon (PoH) and then some. Appreciate your vids!
a variation to this is to ignore your grenade and use spark of haste to increase all three of your top stats by 30 and run both amplitude and feedback.
Dude you levelof quality is insane and the builds always feel intelligently designed and remember how destiny works on multiply levels

Strand is ridiculously strong too! Every Hunter subclass feels like it's in a really good spot right now.

Yes! I was hoping for a lightfall update for this build. I needed some help with my mod setup. Still my go-to for my hunter!
I was waiting for this thanks bro.
Did all Day1 encounters and every content with that build, still working fine.
Just switching for Heavy Finder/Scout +Head-On on helmet
Surge on boots if needed with Dilation on cap.
For champions, specially unstoppable using Leviathian breath is a good option since everything else is easy to cover and still good weapon to dps boss.
This build was fun and destroys tormentors with the tractor cannon one two punch. New sub here
Ever since season of Plunder and your original Arcstrider video I’ve been subbed, and I’ve also run a personalized variant of it ever since.

ITS BACK! BY GOD ITS BACK AND ITS GLORIOUS!
Your channel put me onto the hunter Arc build. So happy to see an updated variation for Lightfall
Thank you! This got me past the Phalanx echo on my solo prophecy
Thanks for the update build. I loved the original one and had some success with it, but with changes to resilience and mod system, I found doing solo dungeons with the new one more difficult. Unfortunately now you have to play better and more careful, because the build won't do it for you, that sucks :P
Thanks for sharing this it was super fun to use! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video as always thanks!
I'm surprised you're not running the new "Spark of Haste". I found it to be pretty helpful, and similar to one of your mod setups from last season. As always, a great video!
As someone who uses to love the Liar’s Handshake build it’s really sad that it doesn’t work anymore.
I never played shadow keep (I'm a new player) and never wanted to, but I've been running this build without the assassin's cowl and it's still pretty OP.
This vid may have given me just a bit of nudge to finish that campaign to get it.
I love the arcstrider, I'm going to try this build as I already have close to 100 resilience and the equipment to make it work
try using Heartshadow sword with this so that you can use the heavy attack while invisible on bosses or something big to weaken them and stay invisible also giving you a speed buff when invisible and wielding the sword ( though it doesnt stack with amplified )

this is still the build i go to, when going in to tougher activities. i made similar rework and one for Lament also.. but will try with tractor.
earned my sub, good stuff.
One hell of a Guardian!
You shine above the rest
Top teir 😎💪👏👏👏
Yessss 🎉🎉🎉🎉!! It's back!!!
I've finally building this one. Planning on using it to solo the LF legend campaign :,D
Whenever i use this build I sometimes forget I have guns lmao
Why use bullet when punch do trick?
When lightfall dropped, i personally updated your old arc build focussing more on survivability and not grenades. I barely use nades with this build.

I've noticed with just 1, you can still keep making orbs with every powered melee punch.
It makes the orb refund more super energy than just the single copy of the mod, it's the same functionality otherwise as just one copy
Love your vids!
I’ll try this, my arc hunter suffers with the new system, miss using it
You can use same build with Liar's Handshake for more dps but without invisibility, it's perfect for gambit (last time more than 50k dps to boss), same dungeons etc is really cool :)
You guys know what I hate about being a hunter...ALL OF OUR BUILDS ARE ABSOLUTELY NUTS. I have no idea what to play! Gyrfalcons...assassins cowl atcstrider..frostee revenant! So many great choices!! This video is dope
Happy to see the updated version of Arcstrider! This build and your guides got me solo flawless through Shattered Throne, Pit, Prophecy and solo not flawless through Spire. You do great content.
Any thoughts on running a copy of Emergency Reinforcement instead of a resist mod on the chest piece?
I don't like Emergency Reinforcement because it's only a 10% resist. But it would certainly fit into the build since there's nothing else competing for armor charge stacks.
Man, great to see non-titans succeeding so well with end-game-viable punch builds. Maybe someday my punchman will shine again without instantly getting nerfed or having to solely rely on throwing hammers. Seriously though, this hunter build slaps.
Have you tried Skullfort with Thunderclap and Heavy Handed + Kickstart + Invigoration and Hands-On? I wouldn't recommend it for endgame content but it's a really fun way to build into the punch fantasy on Titan, while getting your super extremely fast.
@@Dorvarich Yeah I have. It's pretty good. The only issue is like you said, it's not good for endgame, and in group content I find most of my potential melee targets get killed before I can get to them.
I was having so much fun with a severance enclosure punch/finish build until Bungie destroyed it by limiting finisher mods.
there it is, thank you for making a vid
No problem!
Holy crap, 25k now. I found the OG when you were at a couple hundred. I of course built the original when it debuded and really never took it off until post LF campaign (it took me through the entire story). I'm having fun with hanging stuff up rn and Arc is out of pocket until S21 but still this is very strong.
Looking forward to your take on both the Grapple and Suspend Hunter. That's coming, right...
I actually already did Suspend Hunter! It seems the algorithm kind of fizzled out on that one for some reason, but here it is if you're interested: ua-cam.com/video/1NpqgrHNiVk/v-deo.html
And that's a sub! Great video dude!
This is good, I'm trying to learn pve because pvp is ridiculous right now, thanks for the help.
This build is fun but it's maddeningly inconsistent on heals/invisibility. I've died on legendary brakkion about 120 times now and most of them are because I just don't get the proc when I need it.
What shader do u use for the armor looks clean
Amrita's Dream. There's a fashion overview at the end of the video if you're interested!
There's no -15 cap on Legendary Exotic quest, just like lost sectors. So if you were 1820, that's -10 below the content light level. (Not a massive difference, but worth mentioning). I'm seeing tons of people confused and not understanding that the -15/-20/-25 modifiers only applies to certain type of content like NFs.
Are you sure about that? The "Mettle" modifier ("this activity has a fixed difficulty") is listed on the Legendary version, and even when I go in a 1827 the enemies still have red sword icons. Unless the cap is just significantly higher than 1830.
New subscriber here. Love the videos man! 👍
Yeah, time to set this up and save this load out…Zeus…Step aside…⚡️⚡️
ive used this build with liars handshake since arc 3.0 and believe me you still have plenty of survivability in endgame content, cause what i think he forgot to mention is that procing cross counter on liars also heals you, so basically if you run liars over assassins you lose the invis but you get a significant chunk of bonus damage and you get healing on every other HIT rather than on a kill like assassins, and liars doesn't require a charged melee like liars. so when you combine that healing with the healing you get from constantly jolting then you can win punch offs with bosses and champs in GM content without breaking a sweat, as long as they cant one hit you
That last part is what got me when I tried Liar's in GM's. There are just so many 100-0 one hit attacks. I do play at 175fps so framerate-based damage might be part of it.
@@Dorvarich there are a lot of one hit attacks but don't forget you do have guns as well, Ill usually just use my abilities until there the possibility of a one hit then I pull out my weapons
Okay, I'm a fan now! +1
Everyone asks me how I solo the avalon mission on legend.... it's this right here.
It's so good for that! Add density? That's just fuel for the electric rampage.
Man I really need to get Assassin’s Cowl
I love that you're featuring a "One-Two-Punch" hunter build, a lot of people like to sleep on combo blows sadly.
6:55 how are you doing so much damage with your melee without one-two punch? is the melee by itself that strong?
Great video
Ay!! This is a build I've refined and tuned in favor of endgame PvE! I have some fragment recommendations if you're looking to generate HUGE orb potential.
got a dim link or something? would really like to use a refined one for endgame pve :)
I never took off liars handshake pre-lightfall. This is a great build for uber end game stuff, but I think for the every day mundane activity liars is still better. As long as I keep hitting punches I can out heal any boss
Can you do a Caliban’s Hand solar hunter build with the new armor perks? You would be even more of my hero than you are now!
I'm using THUNDERLORD (with catalyst) Machine Gun for this build.
"The Invincissible Arc Hunter"
they need to being well of ions in a different form it was my fav well mod for arc builds
Really enjoy the build and dungeon videos! Is this build still viable or has bungie nelf anything on this build? Aiming to do solo flawless dungeons while I wait for content to come.
This build is so good and powerful i wouldnt be surprised if it ends under Bungie nerf hammer.
Your content is quite splendid. Thank you for helping noobs like me.
Bungie really screwed us Hunter mains in the ass this season by killing powerful friends and spark if ions.
gracias por tu trabajo
