Do weapons matter in the Arc build?

[@princebophadees]

Possibly one of the top 3 warlock grandmaster builds videos of our current time

[@AboveDestiny]

Based comment

[@firewarroir999]

I just came back to the game and found this video today and the only build here I knew was the fallen sunstar one. everything else is absolutely bonkers in comparison. Btw if you want to spam even further, use delicate tomb paired with it

[@alkhemiss]

The Cenotaph build sounds amazing, I wanna try it with Eyes of Tomorrow and just endlessly carpet bomb everything

[@stlsaint1]

The ceno build does especially nasty when you realize you can pair it with polaris and the new stasis trace in the kinetic slot. Fragments wise use same scortch setup but just swap dawn helm for ceno. Crazy.

[@AboveDestiny]

Yep exactly! Actually insane flexibility.

[@coreypark3244]

what perks would you run on the stasis pulse?

[@stlsaint1]

@@coreypark3244 its a stasis trace but it can be crafted. Right now Im running killing tally/demolitionist.

[@boredhobo2580]

For the arc build I personally will run vesper of radius for the extra damage and blinding pulses. You can also use coldheart for good damage and even extra ionic traces. Finally, pairing cold heart with spark of beacons allow for you to just blind everything in the room.

[@thebhoy8561]

Umm coldheart is much better with fallen sunstar. And indebted kindness is amazing this season with spark of beacons especially with voltshot and it’s obviously anti barrier.

[@robert-zr1kx]

using coldheart in gms is a giant L lmfao what if i see someone running ch in my gms im kicking them no cap

Man i miss elemental wells , nowadays builds are so limited game gets boring .

[@clearestt6414]

Fr dude

[@BlerdDaddy85]

Swap fallen sunstar with vesper of radius. Blind, knockback, and insane rift uptime means even more arc tracers, more amplified uptime, and more sentient arc souls, feeding into an infinite loop as long as you stay near enemies.

[@tylerpowell6452]

Not good for GMs. You often don’t want to be surrounded by enemies. even the weak ones will 2 shot you

good videos like this make me want to play D2 again. but then i remember how difficult it was, how i never got any of those weapons/armor and i stop wishing it. watching videos has to be enough.

[@seanmesser3602]

There’s an insane sunbracer build I’m using for solo ghost of the deep. It’s obviously so overplayed but it really is insane

[@AboveDestiny]

Yeah for on level GMs and Raids Sunbracers is definitely best in slot IMO, this is more a list focused on endgame under-leveled activities like GMs, etc.

[@pckbread7543]

How would you go about updating and refreshing these setups in final shape, if they even need to be changed?

[@AboveDestiny]

So much relies on prismatic now sadly, but I think there’s a very powerful arc warlock build that I could make a video on!

[@logangary531]

Where do I get the legendary trace rifle from? Only have exotic one so it eats up my slot for the gally.

[@d.dge.]

@8:10 how tf did you get 4 rockets in your apex predator.?

[@Chrjstheshadow]

Recon + bipod

[@davidc5170]

He goes Above and beyond with the best Destiny content especially for GM's

[@arandomcomp2427]

Crown of tempests with tickle fingers is quite decent in gms . It lasts forever and you can clear an entire room in a gm . It also allows you to kill immne ads.

[@Iddy267]

are you using reconstruction bipod? Is that good on apex?

[@lightspeed-mecharena5929]

good for things like gms and bursting down majors but not good for raw dps

[@Thorus08]

For xeno, run a trace in the primary slot, Polaris, and then your choice of rocket, I like apex or cold comfort. You really have the best of all worlds. Add clear with Polaris. Delete champs with trace and rocket.

[@coreypark3244]

incisor and appetence are your two options, what perks would you run on appetence?

[@teapun3524]

But heavu is not generated for you, only your allies. Ceno doesn't seem very goof unless you use it to get more special ammo for powerful special weapon.

[@maj29]

@@teapun3524 ceno is the best master level exotic in the game rn and in you can stack it meaning if you have 3 cenotaph warlocks mark the same target they all get 2 heavy bricks

[@fakenickib6245]

Dawn chorus makes boss damage pretty fuckin good too. Might run that polaris lance when i come back after awhile tomorrow. Edit: question. I know res got nerfed, is it still worth to max?

[@masonrobbins9302]

I’ve been on that fallen sunstar build since datto made a vid about it awhile ago. Trinity ghoul makes this an orb making machine of a build as well with the correct mods

[@hbgnghjk3159]

Could you use cold heart on the arc build

[@AboveDestiny]

Yes definitely!

[@StanslaMichael]

I wish they would allow builds to remember which artifacts are for those builds.

[@alaskayoung3413]

For real

[@AboveDestiny]

Would be such a nice change. Especially when you consider that for a build like Cenotaph, Overload rocket prevents your rockets from being able to stun barrier champs.

[@1st_Atom]

its coming. Bungies said they are working on allowing that.

[@StanslaMichael]

@@AboveDestiny tbh, I'm too old to remember, considering so many builds, sometimes I load in and wonder why things don't work, then realize my artifacts are not part of the build I have on, hopefully as someone in the comments pointed out a fix is coming.

[@alaskayoung3413]

@@AboveDestiny if you use overload rocket on dragons breathe will the ignite still be able to stun unstop? So essentially have two anti champs in one rocket launcher?

[@Sgt_Seagull47]

what are your opinions on the infinite solar grenade build making use of sunbracers? i argue it has the most ability dps out of all of them considering how many suns you can drop on a boss.

[@rogerhuston8287]

I use Polaris + Chorus, it doesn't do as well in shield heavy content and it's not solar. Also, not great in closed quarters.

[@tylerpowell6452]

It rips through shields. And yeah, most scout rifles are used for long range so I’d imagine they’re not to good up close lol

[@imatowel5930]

I think the most important thing I’ve learned is that you can shoot the ammo and orbs of power

[@AboveDestiny]

Kind of a crazy hidden benefit

[@mrmommyplays3934]

whats the roll on your apex predator

[@AboveDestiny]

I've actually been playing with several different rolls, but most recently have been going with Recon + Frenzy. Recon + Bipod is also very good for GMs!

[@mrmommyplays3934]

ty, great vid btw@@AboveDestiny

[@chipsawdust5816]

For some reason I still have never had Dawn Chorus drop. And I've been playing since the Red War in D2. Haven't seen the Cenotaph either/ Sadz.

Thank you brother 🙏

[@kingllghoull1653]

what weapons do you use for the arc warlock build??

[@muddcatt1340]

Wishender, forbearance, hothead adept

[@berkanoglumya4620]

Maybe trinity ghoul with the catalyst it should be pretty good

[@benoitgarin6477]

@@berkanoglumya4620 Nope, not in GMs, one of the worst weapons to bring here imo

[@AboveDestiny]

You can really use whatever you want! But for me, Forbearance, Undercurrent, Indebted Kindness, Ikelos SMG, Trinity Ghoul, Hothead, and the Song of Ir Yut are all amazing options!

[@1st_Atom]

the best weapon would be to use Indebted Kindess with volt shot and impulse amplifire. combine this with the fragment sepcal arc wepon final blows blind targets and also defeating blinded targets generate an ionic trace and you will have even better dmg and update time on all your abilities compared to this video.

[@uhsul]

Three fantastic builds - I have seen vibe first hand! Another great guide!

@@hankthetank8014thanks!

[@kai3742]

Great work!

[@AboveDestiny]

Thanks!

[@extectic]

You make so many arc traces that the Sunstar is almost redundant. I tend to run with the Stag - every rift has 25% damage reduction which puts them within shouting distance of what a Well can do. Sure, the healing is a bit weaker also but even so, you get a lot of survivability, and the exotic also gives you tons of rift energy if you get wounded so you can drop another one. Grand Overture also slots in perfectly into this scenario, it's insanely deadly.

[@markhowells3835]

Loving your work dude

[@LakerTriangle]

For me its: 1. Polaris build 2. Well build 3. Stasis build

[@AboveDestiny]

What stasis build you rockin this season?

[@corydh100]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@AboveDestinyOsmiomancy’s with the artifact stasis mods + a solar primary to proc flint striker and torch goes hard. I like to switch around Ager’s and Appetence in the top slot so I can throw on Sunshot or Polaris. Dragon’s Bite is also a nice mod to throw on.

[@LakerTriangle]

@@AboveDestiny Os w/ Wicked Implement and grenade kickstart. If general play I use a Demo waveframe GL. But in GMs it's usually a Demo fusion or Blinding GL for more add control. The blinding is also perfect for LFG cause you never know what you're going to get!

[@AboveDestiny]

Make sure you don’t have overload rocket equipped on the artifact!

[@ktg_2castle960]

@@AboveDestiny very excited to try this! If that doesn’t work is there anything else?

[@hellothere4781]

If your weapon has intrinsic anti Champion, radiant won't grant it anti Barrier, Leviathan's Breath stuns Unstops, so if you have radiant, it's will still stun Unstops and won't change to anti Barrier. Another reason is that you have artifact mods conflicting it, like what Above said. For example, this season has anti Overload Auto Rifle mod for the artifact, if you have it on, Radiant will not grant your Auto Rifle with anti Barrier. Almost forgot, if your exotic armor grants you anti Champion effect, Radiant won't grant anti Barrier. For example, if you have Secant Filaments on, casting your Empowered Rift will grant you anti Overload, this will overwrite Radiant's anti Barrier buff. Otherwise, it should work. *Additional info, another way to get anti Barrier is casting your well.

​​@@AboveDestiny aaaah thats why it doesnt Work thanks man

[@katrinakrystal9779]

"Each time you get an arc ability kill" is a False representation of whats happening. Only 1 ionic trace can exist per instance of an effect. for example: * Electrostatic mind + Pulse grenade kill = 1 trace,grenade kills wont make another until you collect this one. * Electrostatic mind + Arc soul kill = 1 trace, the arc soul cant make another trace till you collect the one on the field. * Spark of Ions + pulse Spark of shock = 1 Trace again jolted kills will not create another Trace till you collect this one. while you can generate all 3 of these effects at once, its not exactly a steady flow of energy. Arc Warlock still sucks...

yes as always lets have the mage not use abilities like crazy compared to hunter or even titan. wow we have one very specific arc build that allows us to go insane with ability spam some times. hate that i have to shoot so much. i choose a mage class to use less guns not more. hunter literally should be the class that uses guns the most but sure lets make hunters do everything way better than warlock or titan other than warlock having well to keep ppl alive. wow soooo fun. rather they delete well and give more energy spam like when fusion grenade spam was a thing before the exotic got nerfed to the ground.
