    I love Ergo so much. After about 30 farmed up my favorite rolls are:
    Ticcu's - Wave Frame: All aerial sword attacks are qualified as light attacks so the enemy is both Primed and Detonated as part of the same heavy attack chain.
    Riskrunner - Wave Frame: If the group of adds doesnt die to the wave of Arc Light falling into the center of them doing your best Tesla Coil impression will probably do the trick.
    Telesto - Caster Frame: All telesto bolts spawn once the disc hits a target letting you spawn them on melee targets or that thing over there that you want dead.
    Polaris - Vortex: Build up those hits nice and quick to reach that ignition faster.

    In case anyone's curious, the youtuber Aegis did some damage testing and found that an Ergo Sum with The Perfect Fifth (polaris lance) and Caster Frame, plus the transcendence buff, has greater DPS than any HEAVY sword in the game currently. The only caveat is that it might not be possible to proc the ignitions as a team at a scaling rate, so multiple people using it might decrease overall DPS, but still worth checking out Aegis' video for a deep dive.

    • @marceletta

    Telesto bolts number is dependent on the frame, vortex 10, aggressive/wavesword 8, caster 6, and so on. Vortex spread everywhere unless you use it on up close to something beefy, then all 10 will hit the boss. Wave sword frame also does damage on the uppercut, so the damage with that added gets up closer to vortex/caster heavy damage.
    Good rolls to try:
    Arc conductor/wavesword/caster - add clear
    Unplanned rep/vortex/wavesword/aggressive - damage
    Wolfpack/lightweight/aggressive - shortest animation - damage/add clear
    Perfect fifth/caster/vortex - damage, does slightly more damage on solar subclass with ignition fragment
    Sacred flame/wavesword - add clear

    Don't forget, with hunter when using Ergo Sum, Ascension uses the exotic ability of the sword. So if you ascend, you can cast Stormbreaker/Wolfpack/Insectoid etc., your Ascension takes on the surge/siphon of the sword damage type, and each kill in ascension counts as a sword/weapon kill. Pretty neat synergy.

    Perfect Fifth is incredibly powerful when used on a Solar subclass with a Caster Frame. One use of the projectile will proc the explosive twice, and with the fragment that increases Scorch stacks, it also causes an ignition.
    Though you won’t be on a Prismatic class, if you’re looking for the best possible damage, go with Perfect Fifth/Caster Frame/Solar subclass with fragment.

    If you have the sword out and pop ascension, any kills that ascension gets will trigger whatever exotic perk you have on the weapon. Colony one was spawning robots and the cloudstrike one was summoning the lightning. I have videos I recorded of this happening too. If you pair it with the one prismatic aspect that spawns elemental pickups based on light or dark damage multi kills it also was spawning those. It was generating void breaches and ionic traces from the different kills. I'm betting it's not intentional but it is still really fun.

    I have the gjallersword lightweight frame which is awesome and a tikus wave frame
    grab the middle flag, head left use two invisible hunters to capture plates, before heading up top farm subjugators until you have twenty lives, clear focus one side tormentor then have a group of four hold down champions on that side keeping your lives up while team deals with left side tormentor. Doesn’t matter if your damage isn’t S tier if you keep the four people on right side farming champions on your third plate that’s endless time you just win, maybe keep a person on the jumping stone Resurrecting called DPS players.

    I will say I'm glad I'm done with it, but I think it's unfair to anyone wanting the catalyst. A raid is one thing, 11 other people... not a good idea. You can rng it, how I got through. There are lots of unprepared people though, all getting in line.

    I use an aggressive with telesto bolts for what seems like max damage in one hit. When I heavy slam on a boss, all the bolts pretty much immediately blow up on said boss. Works great in my banner of war build.

  • @jaredtherock5692
    @jaredtherock5692 4 місяці тому

    So, worth noting, I haven't counted them yet, but the vortex frame with Telesto does shoot out a lot of bolts, but its spread out in a circle. It makes great ad clear, but does not do well unless you are soloing that group by yourself.

  • @athroughzdude
    @athroughzdude 4 місяці тому

    I think it's safe to say that everyone should have at least one solid roll of Wolfpack, much like how everyone should have a GHorn. Just in case it's needed. Otherwise the Perfect Fifth on a build that already deals with Ignitions (and likely Facet of Ruin) would be pretty strong, alongside the good old bomb slam from the Telesto perk just on its own.

    To add to the Telesto bolts, the formation seems to be different across all of the frames. I have Telesto on a lightweight frame, and the bolts are sent out in a horizontal line, following the arc of the swing!

  • @cootikus00
    @cootikus00 4 місяці тому

    I think the catalyst is a great thing for the sword. I used the titan prismatic grenade on a group of seven ads where 5 got suspended and both the suspend detonation got me ammo then the arc jolt got me more ammo even on the ones not suspended. Got about 23 or 26. I think the invisible CD that is mentioned here might be enough time between the two detonations.

    @ashleylongley1628 4 місяці тому +5

    The problem isn’t the catalyst itself because it’s actually pretty decent. The problem is that the catalyst perk doesn’t live up to the activity it comes from and the hype bungie themselves were making by saying we’ll want the rewards and it doesn’t even give that many materials

    • @nickgrout2502

    Sacred flame on the wave archetype has been fucking awesome. Run into a bunch of ads or even majors send the wave out and as the wave hits them start slicing and dicing causing ignitions that with the prismatic fragment for increased detonation sizes fucking nukes everything. I’ve been having so much fun with this sword.

    I think this is a cool exotic but I really haven't found a single use case yet. the transcendence related perks are kind of useless, it's so easy to build up without ergo sum that I have it ready for every single damage phase. I guess the only two rolls worth having are one wolfpack and one arc conductor for very niche scenarios
