A build from someone who has actually played Warlock and understands that this meta is all about building transcendence without using Kinetic, well done! I'd like to add that if you wanted to switch the exotic for Microcosm for any content with Subjugator's etc, you can build ridiculous darkness transcendence with Lost Signal. Overall I think Final Warning is generally better but you may run into situations where it's out-ranged by the encounter.
Lol despite dabbling in all the different classes with buildcrafting, warlock always calls me back 🤣 I just can't escape it's God-tier survivability! And yeah microcosm is a great alternative for something like the witness or subjugators in general. I just wanted to stay true to the build in the footage (minus the very few swaps I did to crack shield in the solo flawless GOTD) but there's always room to play around with a build and find some alternatives!!!
@@RussellandJacobMontagevideos from my understanding I believe you build the meter faster with a light or darkness attuned weapon, even with facet of grace kinetics just don't quite hit the mark. It works, but it's more efficient to do it with damage attuned to that subclass type (light or dark). So building into autonomous charging of light (as we do) while actively charging darkness gives us maximum uptime on transcendence
Fantastic video. Most destiny UA-camrs just spew out information when many are still learning aspects of the game. Thank you for including all the percentages along with an easy to follow break down. You are a great teacher. Subbed!
It might please/displease you to know that for the Final Warning: charging it up fully actually nerfs total damage potential you can do with the Pick Your Poison perk. There’s a technique to half charge and quick tap that deals *significantly* more damage in the same amount of time. I suggest checking out Maven’s video on it!
@@D2Novioh dang if you did then sorry I ended up missing it at some point during the full video! I replayed the 5:42 section a few times before making the comment, since the specific technique of doing a half charge burst followed up by tapping the trigger wasn’t mentioned there I’ll leave the comment in case anyone needs a vid recommendation on going more in depth on how to do it and how it works
@@RealityRogue no I think you’re right. I think I failed to actually elaborate on it on how to actually do it, but I believe my other video with swarmers and prismatic warlock I mentioned it now that I’m thinking of it
I’m completely new to warlock gameplay and I found your video simply perfect, explaining everything in a clear and easy way even for a beginner like me. Can’t wait to test the build myself!
Bravo! I’ve been play D2 for years and finally decided to give a builds a try. For me, this is far and above the best I’ve come across. I’ve no patience for super-meta that’s overly complicated or convoluted. I’ll sacrifice some damage or ability for not needing a PhD in D2 sequencing. This build is crazy good and fun - powerful, dynamic, short learning curve, and still requires some thought when playing. You also do a killer job of actually explaining it such that I didn’t need a “tech term dictionary.” Proof is in the pudding - 100% of the time I’m now at the top of the board for strikes, etc. Looking forward to exploring more of your content! Cheers…
You’ve just taught me more about this game in 10 minutes then the time I’ve played it. I’m a warlock and was wondering why I was so behind. I don’t know how to build properly and this was the most informative video I’ve come across. Like and subscribe from me man. And thank you, you really made me feel a bit more confident with playing the game!!!
Man I just wanted to say thanks for this. I’ve been a Warlock main since D1, I’ve been using the getaway build since discovering it months ago after prismatic but I’ve been using it with bleak watcher instead of hellion. It felt strong but not strong enough to do stuff like solo dungeon bosses. Copying this build I feel like an absolute god. How fast transcendence comes back up is insane if things get hairy you can literally pop your super or transcendence to bail you out because one or both is always up. Gave you a well deserved sub.
I've watched a lot of warlock build vids since the launch of TFS and this is the best one by far. I was put off at first by getaway because I find the loop to be boring but your loop off chaining supers and prismatic made it so much more fun. Also great pick with final warning, made me really enjoy the weapon. It slaps
Glad you liked! Yeah I never rly bought into the whole loop with bleakwatcher personally, but I knew the synergy was there somewhere with getaways. Glad I was able to cook something up that works this well! Enjoy 🤠
this build is basically what I run for everything now, except I use bleak watcher (yes i know, original) over helion because I much prefer crowd control and because the turret can deal with both unstop and overloads. but also because it helps fuel transcendence really fast. only fragment differences is that I use purpose (restoration on orb pickups means you can forgo recuperation and run triple surges or a scav with two surges instead) and courage (buff arc soul and song of flame damage after hitting them with freeze or unravel). it’s so rare to have a build that can just do everything, I’ve used this in basically every GM up to this week with great success, used it in the master raid (encounters 1,3 and 4) and even solo flawed a dungeon. if im being honest, I haven’t switched off another build since putting it together (minus for well, or if im doing something for boss DPS in which I switch to star eaters nova bomb), it’s literally perfect for onslaught as well. as “boring” as some might find the build, it’s extremely effective and it’s basically replaced sunbracers for me.
Yeah I just prefer big booms over freezing honestly. I find freezing to not rly be effective vs barriers cuz they can shield before the next freeze, but I’m wondering if u meant overloads not barriers as it stuns with the slow. A great build, but in high end I find bleakwatcher to be a little lackluster for my taste (again, a great build, just not my style
yeahhh I meant using stasis turret for slow to deal with overloads, can also freeze to deal with unstops (through i usually run a rocket sidearm this season just because relying on turret for freeze can’t work all the time) then the radiant in melee for anti barrier, kind of a lazy way to be able to deal with all champion types without a lost of investment.
@@irrelevantnamehandle yeah, I rely partially on trancendence uptime since we have it so often for overload stuns, but we also have the hand cannon if needed. Then final warning for unstops and radiant for barriers. Super easy playstyle when we have transcendence up like every minute lol
@@augomatthiaz5047 sorry just saw this comment, absolutely! If you follow the mobalytics link its got all the build info and actually has a dim feature build in so you can copy the build itself there!
@@ERElement77 fair fair but it is a well known tactic people use to boost engagement (mispronunciation so people comment about it lol) so it’s entirely possible it’s both
Tried this build out all day yesterday and absolutely loved it, expensive on the Mod side but now I've seen how good and how much fun it is i will get on the armor grind again to offset the mods and get better stats. tks for the vid. subbed for sure...
Sir. I’ve been a titan main since D1. I played your warlock build here, and sadly, titans really, really got shafted when it comes to prismatic. Thank you for making Destiny fun and giving me a build that makes it feel like I’ve entered a cheat code.
Hahaha always glad to hear people enjoy, especially longtime players! At the end of the day if I’m making the game a more fun and enjoyable experience for people I’d call that a success 😎 I’m working on some titan builds too so hopefully I’ll have something for you in the future 🫡
@@benklusnick153 you're definitely in the minority at least in this comment section and in my discord. I think warlock definitely has access to the easiest survivability with feed the void devour and some great exotic combos with prismatic. Hunters have celestial still hunt for dps, and stylish executioner for invis. Titans whole kit is centered around melees and it's their only form of gaining health as well unless you run buried bloodline for devour which severely limits it's capabilities
@@D2Novi dont get me wrong, i love devour. Great for staying alive but its basically required for any build. Limits everything else when hunters can teleport, go invis, do the most damage and pretty much everything else for free.
@@benklusnick153 by that logic I think titans are far more limited with their heals being tied to melees versus just one ability final blows and then any final blow to refresh it infinitely
If you use the bleak watcher turret you can literally control every fight with unlimited freezing turrets constant grenade recharge and constant devour. It requires the fully crafted sidearm brigands law with enhanced threat detector and enhanced voltshot which provides the fastest voltshot reload activation in the game. Each ionic trace will nearly recharge your grenade. Bleakwatchers are only limited by their time they exist. Un like hellion its a single shooter the turrets become insane. Great build for Solar btw
I believe bleakwatchers can he destroyed my enemies, which is one of my issues with it. I also love the fact that this build requires very easy to acquire key components, so the brigands law route is something I wouldn't twnd to put in a build video. I've tried bleakwatcher, I've tried hellion. Hellion just feels much more viable to me. I hate the fact that bleakwatcher is in a set spot, whereas hellion moves with you
New subscriber here. First off, I thought the video was well done. The explanations were excellent. The main reason why I subscribed was simply because you actually know how to play the content and are not just some armchair UA-camr. If I could make a suggestion, at the end of your video, bring up your character and then go through the build because it connects you with the character build, and then run through the actual build/weapons and artifacts, etc., etc. Just my two cents😜 I Also, if you could provide DIM links in the future, that would be just another bonus, but not completely necessary. Have an amazing day! The real question, if you had to choose the best character to play all high-end/GM Contant, which character would you use? The warlock, Hunter, or the Titan?
Definitely some things to consider! And as far as the dim link goes, I actually have a plug and play dim link on the mobalytics page. I just keep it on there because I like it to be easy to access all in one place (along with an infographic of the build much like what you were suggesting with the character screen and artifact mods) And then: I gotta say warlock. Devour is such a ridiculously strong piece of the kit, hunters damage capabilities are definitely better with still hunt nighthawk, but I feel like as a solo player survival is far more important than DPS (unless you are doing something like, soloing the witness for example. In which case: do whatever you want lol)
Very informative video. Maybe I will do this build for my lock. I find it very much to take in with other videos but this made me really wanna play it. Thanks again!
Great build! I am still trying to get Buried Bloodline, which i think is even a better build at the end of the day, since it allows to get devour without using the aspect and being able to run both Hellion and Stasis turret, and it hurts quite a lot. But until i'll finally get it, this will be the build to go (i was using almost the same before, but with The Call and Microcosm)
I love buried bloodline but my problem is maintaining devour then becomes a chore. U actually tried that exact build u were talking about in a GM and while it was manageable I found myself running out of devour far too often, rendering it all but useless
Eh. Bleakwatchers fine and all, but I like the combination of solar and arc buddy for autonomous adclear. Bleakwatcher is great for ad control, but pretty useless in a DPS scenario. My goal with this build was a true one stop shop for any and every activity in the game
Ayyyy gang. I'll be honest I was a bit sad the catalyst wasn't better, until I remembered it's already phenomenal and a better catalyst would just get it nerfed faster lol
Great build & subbed. - I have a similar build & take time dilation in place of the charge perks & take a 3rd resist and an extra strand surge. - I only just got the Final warning catalyst yesterday and am grinding out the kills to install that! - Generally if I am running the 2 charge perks I pair that with a kickstart mod of some form. The downside, you would give up powerful attraction or have to downgrade your stat mod That's the great thing with this game, so many options depending on our playstyles :) Keep up the good work!
Just used this build to solo Warlords Ruin, nearly solo flawlessed if i didnt choke with the final boss melee debuff, which was entirely my fault and not the build. i did swap to the stasis turret over hellion solely because i use aberrant action for add clear which fills my light bar easily and the stasis turret helps build the dark bar passively. love this build overall and will be trying again for the flawless soon.
I'd definitely recommend trying with hellion on the next run. Just such a great option with final warning. Though I can't blame you for using abberant, thing is absolutely juiced, so in that instance bleakwatcher for sure makes sense
Let me know if you find anything interesting. After extensive testing I found the options I went with gave us maximum damage capabilities and transcendence virtually instantly, so there wasn't much of anything else that intrigued me with this particular build
Switch out Feed the Void with Deterministic Chaos exotic LMG for volatile rounds so you can have Bleak Watcher equipped with Hellion, also have a Strand weapon that creates Threadlings. That way you have 4 elemental buddies at any given moment.
A) I can confidently say I will never use determinatic chaos in it's current state 🤣 B) Unfortunately that would kill our easy constant heals, making this build useless in endgame
So Song of Flame can cast grenades faster than demolitionists internal cooldown. You can Grenade + Rocket + Snap (to buy time for the cooldown) and just empty whatever rocket ammo you have equipped. Not sure if this would out damage bait and switch stuff, just wondering if you'd tested it at all?
Thoughts on Facet of dominance for this build? I figured since anti barrier snipers are back i swapped out dawn for dominance so i can have both weakening + jolting nades.
I personally prefer bleak watchers for the added crowd control and it's increased independence for solo content (don't have to be out in the open for it to work). But hellion does deal crap loads of damage.
Yeah the devour is honestly more than enough for the survivability, so I feel like hellion is better suited for both damage and auto charging of light transcendence
Lolll for the record not trying to blow my teammate up, I always shoot those so they don't blow us up while fighting lol. Evidently I almost did exactly that
Finale Warning is probably one of the most hard hitting weapons in the game. It just melts everything and yellow bars get cooked, tossed and get served with a side of whoop-ass.
Would you imagine how powerful it would have been if there were perks for exitic class items like spirit of raiment and spirit of the artist. It would have been the most meta and broken thing in the game. Glad it is not the case but also kind of sad bc we are missing out on such destructive power.
I do hope they add some new class ability rolls. It's such a great way to increase buildcrafting potential. I want more exotics that work with abilities specifically, like spirit of strongholds would be sweet, they would just have to maybe take away it's ability to give resto on hits with the sword
@@SoranLeif mobalytics should have the stat prioritization. I typically max resil and discipline, and then go recovery, and the other 3 are whatever they are lol
As someone who’s been trying to SF warlords ruin for like three weeks now trying all different builds including getaway artist/ khvostov which consistently got me to final boss, I’ll be trying this tomorrow. I can’t wait
Multiple people here in the comments have already used it to solo flawless! Just don't be afraid to pop ur super or transcendence for damage resist when securing totems, that boss can be quite annoying sometimes
@@D2Novi maybe resilience is the problem but I don’t have any materials to upgrade higher resil armor, I don’t think I have much higher than maybe tier 6, damage isn’t greatest too seeing as I don’t have that roll on scintillation. Best I have is auto loading BnS edge transit, rapid hit BnS Line in the sand, envious reservoir scintillation.
I recommend swapping facet of sacrifice for courage to deal increased damage with our buddies when we unravel things (or slow with bleakwatcher over hellion)
I'd definitely recommend getting final warning, the other two can be substituted for any better weapons fit to the activity you are doing (can't go wrong with a fusion/ rocket sidearm and a good rocket or gl)
Hey, you mentioned at the end that there would be an uncut video of damage phases in the description. I do not see it. If you are still making the video I apologize for being impatient.
I honestly just got so busy I didn’t put it all together and post it lol, I just have been heads down working towards the next one (and other stuff in life in general). I’d be happy to get it posted soon tho!
Dude i am sorry to say i was skeptical but i tried this build. OMFG you are dead right, it slaps harder than a Mac truck! New favorite build by far thank you so much for this one! 🙌🏻
I’ve thought of this but I don’t like having to maintain devour with weapon final blows if I can help it. Becomes a pain in GMs when your teammates keep stealing ur final blows lol
That's why we have facet of dawn. Pop a melee attack to proc radiant before the barrier puts shield up, one shot it with scintillation, even in grandmasters. Just monitoring barriers and acting accordingly will give us easy stuns (our super also grants us radiant so we can just pop that and one shot the shield followed by nuking them with the remaining super) I've used this build in a bunch of GM runs, barriers shouldn't be an issue if used properly
Doomed petitioner from season of the wish us a great heavy alternative, and any hand cannon (preferably with demo) is great for stunning overloads. Neither are really essential to the build but that's just what I personally run
Wouldn’t facet of courage be more beneficial here instead of devotion? It seems like the light transcendence energy is fast enough from the hellion and arc buddy.
Definitely is an option. Or the one that causes explosions from ability final blows while transcendent. I hesrd someone tried that in the comments here and it was pretty fun
Timestamps to skim as you please, or just plug and play with the mobalytics link! Starting out I personally loved watching build videos to learn about new synergies and whatnot that I didn't know about/ hadn't considered.
@@D2Novithe last time I spent significant time playing was with the taken king I think. OR the raid which drops the heritage and 7th seraph weapons . Played the heck out of destiny 1 .
@@mc3yakisoba ah yeah fair it's a lot more going on since d1 for sure. If you look up the destiny data compendium you can find a lot of information about different buffs, exotics, abilities, etc. Great tool for beginners
Is this build also useful if I don‘t have the road sidearm? I recently just finished lightfall campaign and don‘t have the weapon yet.. are there any replacements?
I do what I can 🤠 glad to hear people appreciate it! It is certainly a time consuming endeavor to make the build, script it, record, edit gameplay and audio, etc etc etc, so I’m always glad to hear it’s appreciated!
bro i literally did warlords ruin solo like a week ago with exactly this build but some different weapons for bosses xD i happend to get the catalyst for final warning not so long ago and decided to make a build and ended up with basically whats in the video and it really slaps
Lollll it’s a great combo. Final warning after the quicksilver nerf is just so juicy, especially with the catalyst (as if it rly needed more damage lol)
@@Stretchycat36 oh I’m always cooking something new up. I literally just play with builds all the time lol, so I’m sure I’ll have another prismatic titan in the works. I did post one a few weeks back if you wanna check it out. Uses ergo sum and strongholds for some great survivability
@@nikkowood4476 no problem! You might even get a better go with the build if we get some new strand focused artifact mods on the new episodes artifact mods!
@@vici222 not a great pairing just cuz as a kinetic weapon we charge our darkness significantly slower, but its range, single target damage, and antibarrier capabilities may make it a good option if you’re ok with giving up a little transcendence uptime. You could also slot on facet of grace over devotion if you used outbreak since we will have plenty of light transcendence from the buddies plus outbreak
In case you didn't know, final warningbisbthe highest dps weapon in the game, according to many high end destiny players that have done extensive testing on all the top tier weapons.
It’s cool in all but what specific armor pieces other than the gauntlets that I need to make the build? Like the helmet, chest piece, boots, and warlock bond. ( I’m pretty new and I have only played for about a week and I did the quest for the prismatic warlock but it didn’t allow me to get it cause it costs money in which I hate spending unless I have to)
What really matters with Non-exotic armor is the stat values, not the specific armor piece that it is (exotics are the yellow/ gold ones that grant you additional abilities/ utility. If you enjoy the game they often put like 3 expansions from a while back on sale for like $30 I believe, but the newest expansion is by far my favorite (and you get prismatic with it). So I’d encourage you to check that out if you like the game so far!
Yeah, honestly any hand Cannon. I just like word of crota with sword logic as it gets it rolling when u use it which can be nice, but at the end of the day the utility rly is just overload stuns and not having to reload thanks to demo!
I'm having an issue trying to solo the final boss in Warlords ruin as devour doesn't always proc off an arcane needle melee kill and then I get deleted lol I will try this build out to see if it helps me get over the line.
Usually i just look at an enemy with an arc soul and proc it instantly lol. Also survival is the name of the game so if u gotta pop transcendence or super while ur cleaning the totems by all means do what I gotta do to keep the run alive
@@Aries_Alpha yeah that my biggest issue with necrotics. I feel like it should since it's applied with the melee. Feels a bit foolish that it procs the final blow based on an ability and doesn't count
This build is so much better with buried bloodline it’s like running 3 aspects bc you can use bleek watcher instead of feed the void and you get weaken with the catalyst so void weapons do more damage pair it with nova or song of flame it wrecks
Great option, however then our transcendence is going to take far longer to charge, which just feels wrong for me on prismatic lol. But ur correct, I was just thinking of that synergy with feed the void and bloodline and how it will essentially give us on command weaken all the time
I personally prefer Bleak Watcher over Hellion (Easier Anti-Champion effects and CCs are more of my style), and I also like to take Facet of Balance for Grenade Energy on Darkness Multikills (especially since Final Warning and Unraveled projectiles both can accomplish this easily) and Melee Energy on Light Multikills. I also prefer Pro Memoria for the Heavy (Reconstruction with Bait & Switch feels fantastic on it!), and I’ll probably rock the new Solar Rocket Sidearm when it comes out!
Yeah honestly bleakwatcher feels overrated to me (also there are like 400,000 videos abt it lol) Great ad control, but with hellion and arc soul you rly don’t have any ads to control anymore (they’re all deleted lol). Plus with the artifact mod coming at reset that will give us increased damage and size to our ignitions, this is shaping up to be even better for dps
@@D2Novi I agree, Hellion is by-far the better option once DPS is involved (I’m likely gonna save a loadout slot for this build regardless) and Bleak Watcher is a bit overused for most versions of this kind of build. I just personally prefer to give more utility to my abilities and focus on damage with my weapons, so Bleak Watcher’s ability to lock down areas and let me focus on the bigger threats first is more valuable for most of the content I play. That being said, I still like your take, and it’s a safe bet that I’ll be using it for DPS in Raids or Dungeons when needed!
@@superbrony7777 yeah definitely each has their use case. Bleakwatcher maybe is better in certain GM settings or onslaught where there’s just a ridiculous amount of enemies to deal with. Glad you enjoyed tho! I will be hellion gang for life 🤣🤣🤣
@@assassinmaster1234 What source did you get that from? As far as I’m aware, the Bleak Watcher/Getaway Artist interaction is intentional and not leaving any time soon
Both the hand Cannon and scintillation are just good options, but absolutely not necessary! Another linear fusion rifle in the heavy slot could definitely be used (especially if it has good perks), and another hand cannon absolutely can be used as well as it's primary use is just for overload stuns. If you are running activities without overloads feel free to run anything (I'd recommend maybe a fusion rifle or a rocket sidearm)
I really don't want to get every single fragment for the strand subclass to get the final warning, does this build still work efficiently with the Call Strand pistol?
I know this is SUPER late but in case anybody needs help getting meditations, there are little floating darkness caches all over neomuna that give 25 meditations each in case you’re struggling
Just hopped back on Warlock after so long. Haven’t been too sure what kind of build to run, but this one looks amazing! Great work. Can’t wait to try it, just gotta get that final warning first ha
Hope you enjoy! Yeah warlock feels super well rounded right now, loving where it’s at. You could try quicksilver until you get final warning, although it won’t be nearly as potent
@@D2Novi Was able to get Final Warning and I must say, this build is so good! I’ve been having a lot of fun. Once you have your solar and arc buddies, transcendence and song of flame going all at once you just can’t be stopped
You'd only really notice it in Boss Damage Phased as you aren't proccing the nade energy from devour. Otherwise, I really don't notice any difference. That being said that's not even really a big deal since one arc soul will last the majority of a boss damage phase
@@D2Novi THansk for the input! I'd like to get the Final Warning but am new to Detiny and haven't touched Lightfall once. Wouldn't it be a ton of time to complete everything just to get this exotic?
Honestly if you're not running an activity with overloads you can run literally anything in the secondary (I just recommended it for the guaranteed stun) If you are running an activity with overloads, I just like a hand cannon with demo so I never have to reload it
Not a bad pairing as well, however getting euphony rolling will take longer without any threadlings being created. Also, I try to shy away from raid exotics in builds when they’re brand new, just cuz a lot of ppl don’t have it
A build from someone who has actually played Warlock and understands that this meta is all about building transcendence without using Kinetic, well done! I'd like to add that if you wanted to switch the exotic for Microcosm for any content with Subjugator's etc, you can build ridiculous darkness transcendence with Lost Signal. Overall I think Final Warning is generally better but you may run into situations where it's out-ranged by the encounter.

Also lost signal is criminally underrated for darkness transcendence

And thank you, you really made me feel a bit more confident with playing the game!!!
Glad it helped! I know firsthand how hard destiny can be to get into, so I'm glad it helps to bridge the gap for you!
Man I just wanted to say thanks for this. I’ve been a Warlock main since D1, I’ve been using the getaway build since discovering it months ago after prismatic but I’ve been using it with bleak watcher instead of hellion. It felt strong but not strong enough to do stuff like solo dungeon bosses.
Copying this build I feel like an absolute god. How fast transcendence comes back up is insane if things get hairy you can literally pop your super or transcendence to bail you out because one or both is always up. Gave you a well deserved sub.
Much appreciated 🤠 another one in the works!

this build is basically what I run for everything now, except I use bleak watcher (yes i know, original) over helion because I much prefer crowd control and because the turret can deal with both unstop and overloads. but also because it helps fuel transcendence really fast. only fragment differences is that I use purpose (restoration on orb pickups means you can forgo recuperation and run triple surges or a scav with two surges instead) and courage (buff arc soul and song of flame damage after hitting them with freeze or unravel).
it’s so rare to have a build that can just do everything, I’ve used this in basically every GM up to this week with great success, used it in the master raid (encounters 1,3 and 4) and even solo flawed a dungeon. if im being honest, I haven’t switched off another build since putting it together (minus for well, or if im doing something for boss DPS in which I switch to star eaters nova bomb), it’s literally perfect for onslaught as well.
as “boring” as some might find the build, it’s extremely effective and it’s basically replaced sunbracers for me.
Yeah I just prefer big booms over freezing honestly. I find freezing to not rly be effective vs barriers cuz they can shield before the next freeze, but I’m wondering if u meant overloads not barriers as it stuns with the slow.
A great build, but in high end I find bleakwatcher to be a little lackluster for my taste (again, a great build, just not my style
yeahhh I meant using stasis turret for slow to deal with overloads, can also freeze to deal with unstops (through i usually run a rocket sidearm this season just because relying on turret for freeze can’t work all the time) then the radiant in melee for anti barrier, kind of a lazy way to be able to deal with all champion types without a lost of investment.
@@irrelevantnamehandle yeah, I rely partially on trancendence uptime since we have it so often for overload stuns, but we also have the hand cannon if needed. Then final warning for unstops and radiant for barriers. Super easy playstyle when we have transcendence up like every minute lol
@@irrelevantnamehandleI would love to try out your exact build! Any chance you could drop a dim link?😁
@@augomatthiaz5047 sorry just saw this comment, absolutely! If you follow the mobalytics link its got all the build info and actually has a dim feature build in so you can copy the build itself there!

Lolllll tbh I think ppl just pronounce it wrong to soft "rage bait" ppl 🤣

@@D2Novi “He-LeE-aWn” 🤣
@@ERElement77 fair fair but it is a well known tactic people use to boost engagement (mispronunciation so people comment about it lol) so it’s entirely possible it’s both
Tried this build out all day yesterday and absolutely loved it, expensive on the Mod side but now I've seen how good and how much fun it is i will get on the armor grind again to offset the mods and get better stats. tks for the vid. subbed for sure...
Glad you enjoyed 💪💪💪 new build video coming soon 😤😤😤
The way everything was broken down earns a sub automatically. I'm definitely trying this build out ASAP
The attention to detail clearly has paid off on my end, I now have my formula for every video going forward!
Well, this has been resent to all my other warlock mains. Tyvm, great video and fantastic breakdown
Love to hear it's being shared 🤠 and glad you enjoyed!
Sir. I’ve been a titan main since D1. I played your warlock build here, and sadly, titans really, really got shafted when it comes to prismatic. Thank you for making Destiny fun and giving me a build that makes it feel like I’ve entered a cheat code.
Hahaha always glad to hear people enjoy, especially longtime players! At the end of the day if I’m making the game a more fun and enjoyable experience for people I’d call that a success 😎 I’m working on some titan builds too so hopefully I’ll have something for you in the future 🫡
you gotta be tripping, I feel like titans and hunters may have gotten the best stuff and warlocks got almost nothing.
@@benklusnick153 you're definitely in the minority at least in this comment section and in my discord. I think warlock definitely has access to the easiest survivability with feed the void devour and some great exotic combos with prismatic. Hunters have celestial still hunt for dps, and stylish executioner for invis. Titans whole kit is centered around melees and it's their only form of gaining health as well unless you run buried bloodline for devour which severely limits it's capabilities
@@D2Novi dont get me wrong, i love devour. Great for staying alive but its basically required for any build. Limits everything else when hunters can teleport, go invis, do the most damage and pretty much everything else for free.
@@benklusnick153 by that logic I think titans are far more limited with their heals being tied to melees versus just one ability final blows and then any final blow to refresh it infinitely
Such a great explanation of everything! I’m going to have to give this a try
Let's gooo, hope you enjoy!
Hell(ion) yeah dude! Im going to try this for my solo warloards run instead of bleak watcher
Actually was messing with it in warlords in my testing phase of scripting the build video. Can confirm it breezes through every boss 🫡🤠
If you use the bleak watcher turret you can literally control every fight with unlimited freezing turrets constant grenade recharge and constant devour. It requires the fully crafted sidearm brigands law with enhanced threat detector and enhanced voltshot which provides the fastest voltshot reload activation in the game. Each ionic trace will nearly recharge your grenade. Bleakwatchers are only limited by their time they exist. Un like hellion its a single shooter the turrets become insane. Great build for Solar btw
I believe bleakwatchers can he destroyed my enemies, which is one of my issues with it. I also love the fact that this build requires very easy to acquire key components, so the brigands law route is something I wouldn't twnd to put in a build video. I've tried bleakwatcher, I've tried hellion. Hellion just feels much more viable to me. I hate the fact that bleakwatcher is in a set spot, whereas hellion moves with you
Hands down the best build I have ever used! You got likes and subscription sir!❤🎈
I needed this today lol, glad you enjoyed. It put a smile on my face 🤠
This is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for ❤❤❤
Glad you found it 👍🫡🤠
New subscriber here. First off, I thought the video was well done. The explanations were excellent. The main reason why I subscribed was simply because you actually know how to play the content and are not just some armchair UA-camr. If I could make a suggestion, at the end of your video, bring up your character and then go through the build because it connects you with the character build, and then run through the actual build/weapons and artifacts, etc., etc. Just my two cents😜 I Also, if you could provide DIM links in the future, that would be just another bonus, but not completely necessary. Have an amazing day! The real question, if you had to choose the best character to play all high-end/GM Contant, which character would you use? The warlock, Hunter, or the Titan?
Definitely some things to consider! And as far as the dim link goes, I actually have a plug and play dim link on the mobalytics page. I just keep it on there because I like it to be easy to access all in one place (along with an infographic of the build much like what you were suggesting with the character screen and artifact mods)
And then: I gotta say warlock. Devour is such a ridiculously strong piece of the kit, hunters damage capabilities are definitely better with still hunt nighthawk, but I feel like as a solo player survival is far more important than DPS (unless you are doing something like, soloing the witness for example. In which case: do whatever you want lol)
Very informative video. Maybe I will do this build for my lock. I find it very much to take in with other videos but this made me really wanna play it. Thanks again!
No problem! Glad you enjoyed 🤠
Excellent video. Probably strongest build I've used... ever.
Also, @D2Novi do you have any artifact updates on this build since the new mods dropped?
I'd definitely equip the new arc mod in 5th column. Free jolt all day
Great build! I am still trying to get Buried Bloodline, which i think is even a better build at the end of the day, since it allows to get devour without using the aspect and being able to run both Hellion and Stasis turret, and it hurts quite a lot. But until i'll finally get it, this will be the build to go (i was using almost the same before, but with The Call and Microcosm)
I love buried bloodline but my problem is maintaining devour then becomes a chore. U actually tried that exact build u were talking about in a GM and while it was manageable I found myself running out of devour far too often, rendering it all but useless
With some minor armor changes this has been my day 1 build as soon as I had all facets. Final warning pairs beautifully.
It absolutely shreds. What a great combo and transcendence is up like, always lol
Looks excellent. Unfortunately I don't have Final Warning, but I'm going to try the build with Quicksilver.
Should be a sufficient replacement until you get final warning! I’ll be curious to see how it performs, let me know
I’ve been using getaway with bleak watcher and was loving it now another one to try! Thanks brother 🔥
Enjoy 🤠🤠
Im melting everything with this build! Huge thank you! Whats a good energy to pair with Final Warning?
Glad you enjoy! Ive recently been using ikelos sniper for damage. It's great! Otherwise you could opt for the solar rocket sidearm
Goated video i use this build247 but this taught me just a little more about how op it is
I use bleak watcher though way better than hellion
Eh. Bleakwatchers fine and all, but I like the combination of solar and arc buddy for autonomous adclear. Bleakwatcher is great for ad control, but pretty useless in a DPS scenario. My goal with this build was a true one stop shop for any and every activity in the game
Cool build. Final Warning gang! I’m so glad they gave it a great catalyst.
Ayyyy gang. I'll be honest I was a bit sad the catalyst wasn't better, until I remembered it's already phenomenal and a better catalyst would just get it nerfed faster lol
Great build & subbed.
- I have a similar build & take time dilation in place of the charge perks & take a 3rd resist and an extra strand surge.
- I only just got the Final warning catalyst yesterday and am grinding out the kills to install that!
- Generally if I am running the 2 charge perks I pair that with a kickstart mod of some form.
The downside, you would give up powerful attraction or have to downgrade your stat mod
That's the great thing with this game, so many options depending on our playstyles :)
Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoyed! Yeah a little boost to the damage is never a bad thing 🫡🫡
Just used this build to solo Warlords Ruin, nearly solo flawlessed if i didnt choke with the final boss melee debuff, which was entirely my fault and not the build. i did swap to the stasis turret over hellion solely because i use aberrant action for add clear which fills my light bar easily and the stasis turret helps build the dark bar passively. love this build overall and will be trying again for the flawless soon.
I'd definitely recommend trying with hellion on the next run. Just such a great option with final warning. Though I can't blame you for using abberant, thing is absolutely juiced, so in that instance bleakwatcher for sure makes sense
Just used this build to solo the last Final Shape boss mission. ❤❤ just got my speaker's sight 🎉
Let's goooooooo
Wow what an amazing build 🎉
Glad you enjoyed! Just put out another new one!
Going to try it tonight - always liked the final warning so any excuse to use it
My thoughts exactly lol. So free with the 100% damage boost
This build is so fun. Using so many abilities , it just works like a dance of chaos. 👍
Love to hear it 🤠
Legit checked
This build is even better than mine, i had to play cowardly with stasis turret & arc turret and rely a lot on guns
This here. Some people keep on saying bleak watcher bleak watcher. But it's just not the same
Interesting… I’ll probably try some other weapons, but seems really good all around.
Let me know if you find anything interesting. After extensive testing I found the options I went with gave us maximum damage capabilities and transcendence virtually instantly, so there wasn't much of anything else that intrigued me with this particular build
Switch out Feed the Void with Deterministic Chaos exotic LMG for volatile rounds so you can have Bleak Watcher equipped with Hellion, also have a Strand weapon that creates Threadlings. That way you have 4 elemental buddies at any given moment.
A) I can confidently say I will never use determinatic chaos in it's current state 🤣
B) Unfortunately that would kill our easy constant heals, making this build useless in endgame
So Song of Flame can cast grenades faster than demolitionists internal cooldown. You can Grenade + Rocket + Snap (to buy time for the cooldown) and just empty whatever rocket ammo you have equipped.
Not sure if this would out damage bait and switch stuff, just wondering if you'd tested it at all?
Definitely something I've considered, I just got rid of my good demo hothead after the Starfire neerf way back lol
This build is amazing, looking forward to see others. Easy sub from me 😄
Another one is almost here! Just finishing up the last editing and making the thumbnail as we speak. Out this week 😉
Thoughts on Facet of dominance for this build? I figured since anti barrier snipers are back i swapped out dawn for dominance so i can have both weakening + jolting nades.
That’s definitely an option! Gives a bit more use to the nades beyond just arc buddies
I personally prefer bleak watchers for the added crowd control and it's increased independence for solo content (don't have to be out in the open for it to work). But hellion does deal crap loads of damage.
Yeah the devour is honestly more than enough for the survivability, so I feel like hellion is better suited for both damage and auto charging of light transcendence
I got final warning and i gotta say this build is really good. I’ve done several GM’s now.🙂
We don’t talk about 5:05😳
Lolll for the record not trying to blow my teammate up, I always shoot those so they don't blow us up while fighting lol. Evidently I almost did exactly that
Finale Warning is probably one of the most hard hitting weapons in the game. It just melts everything and yellow bars get cooked, tossed and get served with a side of whoop-ass.
Lolll such a great exotic. Wish more felt as "exotic" as it did
Would you imagine how powerful it would have been if there were perks for exitic class items like spirit of raiment and spirit of the artist. It would have been the most meta and broken thing in the game. Glad it is not the case but also kind of sad bc we are missing out on such destructive power.
I do hope they add some new class ability rolls. It's such a great way to increase buildcrafting potential. I want more exotics that work with abilities specifically, like spirit of strongholds would be sweet, they would just have to maybe take away it's ability to give resto on hits with the sword
Build is amazing thx a lot brother
What’s your stat spread look like with this build if you don’t mind me asking?
@@SoranLeif mobalytics should have the stat prioritization. I typically max resil and discipline, and then go recovery, and the other 3 are whatever they are lol
@@D2Novi Thanks for the reply and video! I just got back into Destiny after taking a long break. I can’t wait to test out this build.
@@SoranLeif hopefully it makes the return more enjoyable!
As someone who’s been trying to SF warlords ruin for like three weeks now trying all different builds including getaway artist/ khvostov which consistently got me to final boss, I’ll be trying this tomorrow. I can’t wait
Multiple people here in the comments have already used it to solo flawless! Just don't be afraid to pop ur super or transcendence for damage resist when securing totems, that boss can be quite annoying sometimes
@@D2Novi I can hardly get past second boss 😭 the one time I did I got insta killed by phalanx shield
@@TH3DUD3959 what's ur resil at? They should be fairly easy to take out of u have max resil
@@D2Novi maybe resilience is the problem but I don’t have any materials to upgrade higher resil armor, I don’t think I have much higher than maybe tier 6, damage isn’t greatest too seeing as I don’t have that roll on scintillation. Best I have is auto loading BnS edge transit, rapid hit BnS Line in the sand, envious reservoir scintillation.
@@TH3DUD3959 definitely prioritize getting resil level 10 before trying the solo flawless again. That's a HUGE difference
Nice build. Is it still as good not with the same weapons? Artifact mods are different now 😀
I'd say it's still very solid, but not quite as strong as it was with that galvanic armor mof
I recommend swapping facet of sacrifice for courage to deal increased damage with our buddies when we unravel things (or slow with bleakwatcher over hellion)
Sacrifice or devotion could absolutely be swapped with courage, however I find hellion to be far more effective than bleak-watcher in high end content
@@D2Novi oh really? I found the slow for over loads better but it's all just personal preference
@@turtle4935 that's fair, but the damage from ignitions in damage phases and for aoe ad clear feels much more valueable to me
@@D2Novi I'll test it out
@@turtle4935 🫡
This is a great video. I have none of the weapons you suggested. What are some good replacements? Thanks.
I'd definitely recommend getting final warning, the other two can be substituted for any better weapons fit to the activity you are doing (can't go wrong with a fusion/ rocket sidearm and a good rocket or gl)
Hey, you mentioned at the end that there would be an uncut video of damage phases in the description. I do not see it. If you are still making the video I apologize for being impatient.
I honestly just got so busy I didn’t put it all together and post it lol, I just have been heads down working towards the next one (and other stuff in life in general). I’d be happy to get it posted soon tho!
I honestly would’ve love to make the uncut version at the end but woulda just made the video super long for no reason
Dude i am sorry to say i was skeptical but i tried this build. OMFG you are dead right, it slaps harder than a Mac truck! New favorite build by far thank you so much for this one! 🙌🏻
Build slaps 👊🏼
🤠🤠🤠
This sounds so corny but I would feel so naked without my stasis turret lol. Are you sure I wouldnt miss it? IM SCARED BRO.
Take the leap of faith brother. You won't regret it 🫡🤣 (plenty of bleakwatcher stans have been converted in these here comments)
What about the new artifacts perks coming in act 2. Will this build work with them ? What artifact perks would you use with this build in act 2 ?
I’ll definitely be adding in the new ignition based one to give our hellion a nice boost!
If you use Bleak Watcher instead of Feed the Void and run the Buried Bloodline you can have all 3 turrets and still get Devour
I’ve thought of this but I don’t like having to maintain devour with weapon final blows if I can help it. Becomes a pain in GMs when your teammates keep stealing ur final blows lol
This build is sweet but it really struggles against barrier champs. The radiant from the fragment doesnt usually work
That's why we have facet of dawn. Pop a melee attack to proc radiant before the barrier puts shield up, one shot it with scintillation, even in grandmasters. Just monitoring barriers and acting accordingly will give us easy stuns (our super also grants us radiant so we can just pop that and one shot the shield followed by nuking them with the remaining super)
I've used this build in a bunch of GM runs, barriers shouldn't be an issue if used properly
Thank you!

Hey Guardians! What weapons could i use instead of crotas handgun and that linear fusion rifle? Because i dont have those…
Doomed petitioner from season of the wish us a great heavy alternative, and any hand cannon (preferably with demo) is great for stunning overloads. Neither are really essential to the build but that's just what I personally run
@@D2Novithanks ❤
I subscribed cuz I didn't know amplified gave you 15% damaged resist
Plus an additional 30% with the artifact mod! Welcome, glad to have you 🤠
Here’s the question, does this still hold up without the artifact perks?
Thanks for replying
No problem!!
Wouldn’t facet of courage be more beneficial here instead of devotion? It seems like the light transcendence energy is fast enough from the hellion and arc buddy.
Definitely is an option. Or the one that causes explosions from ability final blows while transcendent. I hesrd someone tried that in the comments here and it was pretty fun
They killed this build today
It’s still 100% viable with devour tbh
I prefer this way more than the Bleak Buddy build.
Another converted disciple of the hellion, welcome brother 👋
Kinda crazy we need an 11 minute video to have a chance to beat and play the content in destiny 2. Is that a good thing? Good video btw, nice work.
Timestamps to skim as you please, or just plug and play with the mobalytics link! Starting out I personally loved watching build videos to learn about new synergies and whatnot that I didn't know about/ hadn't considered.

Lolll I tried no time too. Final warning is just too good 🤣
Is this build also useful if I don‘t have the road sidearm? I recently just finished lightfall campaign and don‘t have the weapon yet.. are there any replacements?
Try the rocket sidearm from TFS (it's called the call) great option to replace it
New Sub from me .. keep up the good work and explanation as some of us really appreciate that 😃 especially us Older gamers !!
I do what I can 🤠 glad to hear people appreciate it! It is certainly a time consuming endeavor to make the build, script it, record, edit gameplay and audio, etc etc etc, so I’m always glad to hear it’s appreciated!
Do you have an alternate recommendation for the exotic or non Exotic weapon?
The call rocket sidearm from TFS would be a great alternative
bro i literally did warlords ruin solo like a week ago with exactly this build but some different weapons for bosses xD i happend to get the catalyst for final warning not so long ago and decided to make a build and ended up with basically whats in the video and it really slaps
Lollll it’s a great combo. Final warning after the quicksilver nerf is just so juicy, especially with the catalyst (as if it rly needed more damage lol)
Subbed. Great vid
glad you like 🤠

@@Stretchycat36 oh I’m always cooking something new up. I literally just play with builds all the time lol, so I’m sure I’ll have another prismatic titan in the works. I did post one a few weeks back if you wanna check it out. Uses ergo sum and strongholds for some great survivability

@@nikkowood4476 no problem! You might even get a better go with the build if we get some new strand focused artifact mods on the new episodes artifact mods!
this build looks great, u have any recommended substitutes for final warning?
You could try quicksilver storm, although it got hit with a pretty hefty nerf
What about outbreak P?
@@vici222 not a great pairing just cuz as a kinetic weapon we charge our darkness significantly slower, but its range, single target damage, and antibarrier capabilities may make it a good option if you’re ok with giving up a little transcendence uptime. You could also slot on facet of grace over devotion if you used outbreak since we will have plenty of light transcendence from the buddies plus outbreak
im new to the game, what 3 stats should i try to aim to max out for this build?
I opt for resilience -> discipline -> recovery for this build
In case you didn't know, final warningbisbthe highest dps weapon in the game, according to many high end destiny players that have done extensive testing on all the top tier weapons.
Highest DPS primary I would believe, but not highest weapon overall lol
@@D2Novi oh I missed that word, ya Primary xD Working on getting it now, but damn, the Strand Meditation farm is brutalllll
@@Piper0185 yeahhhh lol it's tough for sure
It’s cool in all but what specific armor pieces other than the gauntlets that I need to make the build? Like the helmet, chest piece, boots, and warlock bond. ( I’m pretty new and I have only played for about a week and I did the quest for the prismatic warlock but it didn’t allow me to get it cause it costs money in which I hate spending unless I have to)
What really matters with Non-exotic armor is the stat values, not the specific armor piece that it is (exotics are the yellow/ gold ones that grant you additional abilities/ utility.
If you enjoy the game they often put like 3 expansions from a while back on sale for like $30 I believe, but the newest expansion is by far my favorite (and you get prismatic with it). So I’d encourage you to check that out if you like the game so far!
@@D2Novi aight bet
Great build and subbed. Was wondering, i dont have a Word of Crota with Demo, would a Zaoulis with demo work just as well?
Yeah, honestly any hand Cannon. I just like word of crota with sword logic as it gets it rolling when u use it which can be nice, but at the end of the day the utility rly is just overload stuns and not having to reload thanks to demo!

I'm having an issue trying to solo the final boss in Warlords ruin as devour doesn't always proc off an arcane needle melee kill and then I get deleted lol I will try this build out to see if it helps me get over the line.
Usually i just look at an enemy with an arc soul and proc it instantly lol. Also survival is the name of the game so if u gotta pop transcendence or super while ur cleaning the totems by all means do what I gotta do to keep the run alive
@@D2Novi it seems to proc 100% with this build which will help I'm sure I want that emblem🤣
@@Aries_Alpha oh yeah were u using necrotic before? That annoyingly does not count for the proccing of devour
@@D2Novi I was yes all makes sense now.....!
@@Aries_Alpha yeah that my biggest issue with necrotics. I feel like it should since it's applied with the melee. Feels a bit foolish that it procs the final blow based on an ability and doesn't count
This build is so much better with buried bloodline it’s like running 3 aspects bc you can use bleek watcher instead of feed the void and you get weaken with the catalyst so void weapons do more damage pair it with nova or song of flame it wrecks
Bloodline is a myth
Great option, however then our transcendence is going to take far longer to charge, which just feels wrong for me on prismatic lol. But ur correct, I was just thinking of that synergy with feed the void and bloodline and how it will essentially give us on command weaken all the time
You’ll get it someday 🤣
I personally prefer Bleak Watcher over Hellion (Easier Anti-Champion effects and CCs are more of my style), and I also like to take Facet of Balance for Grenade Energy on Darkness Multikills (especially since Final Warning and Unraveled projectiles both can accomplish this easily) and Melee Energy on Light Multikills. I also prefer Pro Memoria for the Heavy (Reconstruction with Bait & Switch feels fantastic on it!), and I’ll probably rock the new Solar Rocket Sidearm when it comes out!
Yeah honestly bleakwatcher feels overrated to me (also there are like 400,000 videos abt it lol) Great ad control, but with hellion and arc soul you rly don’t have any ads to control anymore (they’re all deleted lol). Plus with the artifact mod coming at reset that will give us increased damage and size to our ignitions, this is shaping up to be even better for dps
@@D2Novi I agree, Hellion is by-far the better option once DPS is involved (I’m likely gonna save a loadout slot for this build regardless) and Bleak Watcher is a bit overused for most versions of this kind of build. I just personally prefer to give more utility to my abilities and focus on damage with my weapons, so Bleak Watcher’s ability to lock down areas and let me focus on the bigger threats first is more valuable for most of the content I play. That being said, I still like your take, and it’s a safe bet that I’ll be using it for DPS in Raids or Dungeons when needed!
@@superbrony7777 yeah definitely each has their use case. Bleakwatcher maybe is better in certain GM settings or onslaught where there’s just a ridiculous amount of enemies to deal with. Glad you enjoyed tho! I will be hellion gang for life 🤣🤣🤣
They are stopping the interaction soon between bleak watcher and getaway artist. Unless you’re speaking of using it in general.
@@assassinmaster1234 What source did you get that from? As far as I’m aware, the Bleak Watcher/Getaway Artist interaction is intentional and not leaving any time soon
In his video it showed 5 slots on his build. That’s what confused me.
Yeah so feed the void gives 2 slots, hellion gives 3
@d2Nova - Do you think the latest changes to Feed the Void changes the commentary in this video? Thoughts
Nope, still great. Maybe less energy in DPS phases but let’s be real, the arc soul lasts like at least 1/2 of any damage phase in the game
I don't have many exclusive weapons like the hand canon or scintillation yet. Anything else I could use?
Both the hand Cannon and scintillation are just good options, but absolutely not necessary! Another linear fusion rifle in the heavy slot could definitely be used (especially if it has good perks), and another hand cannon absolutely can be used as well as it's primary use is just for overload stuns. If you are running activities without overloads feel free to run anything (I'd recommend maybe a fusion rifle or a rocket sidearm)
If I don’t have final warning can you give some other weapon recommendations to fill that role?
You could try quicksilver storm or the call rocket sidearm!
I really don't want to get every single fragment for the strand subclass to get the final warning, does this build still work efficiently with the Call Strand pistol?
Yes, but I would strongly recommend getting final warning eventually. Not even specifically for this build just amazing in general
I know this is SUPER late but in case anybody needs help getting meditations, there are little floating darkness caches all over neomuna that give 25 meditations each in case you’re struggling
Just hopped back on Warlock after so long. Haven’t been too sure what kind of build to run, but this one looks amazing! Great work. Can’t wait to try it, just gotta get that final warning first ha
Hope you enjoy! Yeah warlock feels super well rounded right now, loving where it’s at. You could try quicksilver until you get final warning, although it won’t be nearly as potent
@@D2Novi Was able to get Final Warning and I must say, this build is so good! I’ve been having a lot of fun. Once you have your solar and arc buddies, transcendence and song of flame going all at once you just can’t be stopped

Is this nerf to getaway artist very noticeabble for this bubild ? Like will it be noticeabble in solo GM content?
You'd only really notice it in Boss Damage Phased as you aren't proccing the nade energy from devour. Otherwise, I really don't notice any difference. That being said that's not even really a big deal since one arc soul will last the majority of a boss damage phase

Is the call a good substitute for final warning? The gun play with final warning feels so slow.
Its adequate for sure. Try burst firing the final warning instead of fully charging it. It feels way better to use and way less clunky
Any other guns you could replace Final Warning with? I don't have that one.
The call rocket sidearm could be adequate, but I'd strongly recommend getting final warning asap. Super strong!
@@D2Novi THansk for the input! I'd like to get the Final Warning but am new to Detiny and haven't touched Lightfall once. Wouldn't it be a ton of time to complete everything just to get this exotic?
i mightve missed it but whats your stat focus?
It’s on the mobalytics page, but it’s resilience, discipline, recovery
@@D2Novi thank you! ive been loving this build btw. quickly became my favorite build so far.
@@c0dycod3z let’s goooo glad you enjoyed 😃
what can you use instead of word of crota? i dont have that, but have everything else
Honestly if you're not running an activity with overloads you can run literally anything in the secondary (I just recommended it for the guaranteed stun) If you are running an activity with overloads, I just like a hand cannon with demo so I never have to reload it
What stats should be focused on?
Resilience and discipline to tier 10 if you can, then get recovery up as much as possible after that!
What do you think for pairing it up with Euphony?
Not a bad pairing as well, however getting euphony rolling will take longer without any threadlings being created. Also, I try to shy away from raid exotics in builds when they’re brand new, just cuz a lot of ppl don’t have it
