An easy buff for axion bolt in pve is just always make it drop 2/4 seekers if there is just 1 guy and have them all track him
@IronworkerGaming2 күн бұрын
I'd love to see it! I don't think that would put the damage out of line given the long cooldown, but would add a ton of value to the grenade! 👍👍

My biggest take away from this is that spike wall needs a massive buff. Another huge drawback that was mentioned was that the grenade itself can be destroyed, cutting the duration short. Enemies dont target the grenade but I noticed some aoe effects seem to work. When I was trying spike wall in onslaught, the cursed thralls would often take out the grenade. You can position the grenade around this and yes it does have the largest area but its maximum damage should be a higher than vortexes compared to where it is
@IronworkerGaming2 күн бұрын
I agree. Void Spike doesn't seem to be a popular grenade, and I'll love to see some changes made to it that could make it an option that is worthy of more consideration. 👍👍

I will die on the hill that aspects should meaningfully change the way you play a subclass and all aspects should have the potential to have more than 4 fragments in a build. With that being said.... why did bungie neuter chaos accelerant?! I know its been this way for a while and yes itstizzle dropped a solo gm run using CA with contraverse holds recently but that says more about his knowledge and skill than it does about how helpful the aspect + exotic combo is. Seriously look at exactly how little the aspect helps your grenades and it STILL MAKES SCATTER GRENADES WORSE OVERALL! this is without considering prismatic warlock basically gets everything good from the void aspects (minus child of the old gods) without even being restricted on your second aspect choice or exotic because transcendence is built in and you have plenty of ways to regen your abilities. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
@IronworkerGaming3 күн бұрын
I really wish that I could. Compared to the other Aspects available in game, Chaos Accelerant does feel very uninspired. 👍👍
@ShadowNemesis5752 күн бұрын
The sad part is it wouldn't take much tweaking to make it worth picking but bungie has made a habit of leaving certain aspects in a worse state for the worst reasons. Look at what happened to sunspots. I still get a lot of fun out of playing Destiny but the issues in it are glaring, and I don't understand what they gain by leaving them the way they are.
@IronworkerGaming2 күн бұрын
@@ShadowNemesis575 I hear you. I feel like Bungie has always prioritized "new" even when they'd be better served taking a breath to rework or fix issues. I know we get the periodic tuning pass make some older assets more relevant, but I can't believe that nobody at the studio has said "Chaos Accelerant kind of sucks. Maybe we should address that." 👍👍

@pirate_duck49855 күн бұрын
What's funny to me! As you mentioned lots of different utility between different Grenades. I use my Grenades differently across all 3 Classes tbf so I'm interested to see what comes out on top! My Titan? Scatter with Controlled Demo & a Throwing Shield. Add in a Destabilising Rounds Weapon? Purple Assplosions everywhere! Warlock? Almost always Vortex! Although I will admit Scatter with Nothing Mannacles can be very fun! Hunter? Depends on what I'm doing in PVE! Voidwall + Smoke wombo combo is amazing for add clear & works pretty damn good with a Gyrfalcons Build. Vortex is still probably the go to for harder content. Do you plan on doing these for all the classes? Im using Stasis a LOT for the last couple seasons. Glacier with Shatter? Duskfield with Renewals & the Grenade Aspect gives you slow + the big crystal for shatter. Wonder what a Stacey Turret would do if you left it to do it's thing!?

"Bungie did make an effort to improve upon (Scatter Grenade tracking)" is the equivalent of adding the barest sprinkling of Parmesan cheese to a huge plate of spaghetti. Who's programming these things? Dennis Nedry from Jurassic Park? Without the fantastic tracking of D1 this renders Nothing Manacles next to useless.

Little tip for void spike and thunder grenades, their latching ability can be a bit buggy but if you know what to do it is possible to actually stick these grenades to certain enemies by wedging them in the hit boxes. My personal favourite is wedging thunder grenades under Carl's chin.

Love these videos! Just some minor errors I spotted in the video: • Suppression's effects do affect Minibosses; in the video you state Suppression's effects aren't applicable to Bosses and Minibosses and while that is true for Bosses, Minibosses (with the exception of Barrier and Unstoppable Champions) also become non-combative. - Speaking about Suppression: not mentioned in the video but I thought I'd also say here that Suppression knocks Miniboss and Boss Hive Lightbearers out of their Supers, and also strips the new Bane Combatants of their effects while suppressed (e.g. Drain Bane stops draining; Mines Bane do not drop mines if they are still suppressed on final blow). • Echo of Domineering (and Facet of Command) only reloads from reserves your current readied weapon (the one in your hands), not all weapons as mentioned in the video. • Vortex Grenades do pull Minibosses towards the center of the vortex providing they are in range.
