Don’t know if it’s ever been discussed or planned for behind the scenes - but you should have a winners bracket or “champion of champions” mini series at the end of each month (or season when the season isn’t 6 months long). Test it on another GM in rotation to make sure they hold up.

I am really happy people are enjoying the build ❤

[@Huligane]

It’s an amazing build im a void main warlock since season 5 it’s always been the strongest sub class in the game to me. ✊🏾

[@andreymavian3400]

@@Huligane Thank you! I do think that Briarbinds flew under many peoples' radars. It made me swap from Contraverse Hold which haven't used since. I really enjoy how much easier it is to maintain in all levels of content and how powerful the gameplay loop gets once you get the ball rolling even though Void Soul don't actually deal that much dmg, but what they do is they slow enemies down which is super useful. And since you can easily choose which targets to weaken, that means that weapons, grenades and even the super which base dmg could be better, get the 15% dmg buff. It's almost like having Void Surge all the time, especially if you keep getting orbs for weapon dmg buff (if you pay attention in the video, Cross never ran out of armor charge or ammo because orbs and ammo are everywhere and is safe to pick up with invis). Contraverse is strong, don't get me wrong, but it doesn't give you enough grenade energy from hitting one beefy target like it did pre Void 3.0 and you don't deal extra dmg with it either. And when you miss a grenade or just sit on cooldown in case didn't manage to kill many enemies with devour to maintain the loop, you have nothing to do apart from using your weapons because melee is incredibly weak and you probably don't use void souls because devour is more useful. I really don't like these one trick pony builds, I rather like when all my abilities synergise with one another. Even Sunbreacers and Osmiomancy are much easier to maintain in my eyes because melee can help you restart the loop easier.

I just witnessed a Sidearm be the centerpiece of an awesome build that carries through what can be considered the hardest GM in the game. These are exciting times. Now I actually feel motivated to run the dungeon more often.

[@andreymavian3400]

I'm the one to submit the build. Love that people enjoy the build. Buried Bloodline actually became my favorite special exotic in the energy slot. I run it on Strand, Stasis and Void and its amazing. Running it on solar and arc is kinda pointless because Voltshot and Incandescent are way too goated to not use with the respective classes.

[@patrickoakley7890]

@@andreymavian3400 good shit, bro. You're creative as hell. I just realllllly hope Slowva Bomb gets a buff eventually, it's the only thing that I hate about running Voidlock.

[@andreymavian3400]

@@patrickoakley7890 Many thanks! I'm really proud of the build as its my finest achievement and is fully made by me when the exotic dropped (I watched other videos to see what people would come up with for the exotic, but none recommended using echo of obscurity to safely get the void soul back) I completely agree on Nova buff. I really hope that when the time comes to rework the Ahamkara Skull, they won't mess it up and give it a dmg bump, or even to the Nova itself. That's another thing I love about this build because it kinda indirectly buffs the super since the target I send it to is most likely weakened for the 15% extra dmg.

[@infinitedeath1384]

The sidearm legit is going to be the centrepiece of a ton of builds. It can actually be viable to bring arc titan into a GM, because you can get devour with the sidearm, which refreshes, heals, and gives grenade energy every time you get a kill. Grenade energy is what arc titans want, because of the aspect buffing your arc grenades. Buried bloodline certainly allows for lots of crazy good builds.

[@sydious_s_snake]

​@@andreymavian3400 don't know why you chose to use bloodline for a build that already gains devour and weaken with minimal effort, it's better suited on classes that lack survivability and debuff means already, stasis is a prime example

[@AlterRequiem]

I've actually been using the briarbinds build for a couple weeks now and one thing I do differently is run empowering instead of healing rift, when you send out your soul it heals you on hit, along with bloodline. The two of those together make for some unrivaled heal-on-hit values from a safe range and you no longer need to play as stationary in a healing rift to get healed.

[@smclavey]

I do the same but for a GM I would probably go healing rift.

I feel like the stronghold build's problem is that it isn't a "slap on and it just works" kinda build. It has a skill floor and it plays differently than most other builds, and if you mess up too hard you're just dead. Like, it is a really good build, but if you aren't good with it, it won't click.

Stronghold would be way better if it can pull aggro from enemies, like how strand clone works

[@pch1370]

That would be so cool and would give it actual value as an exotic, because right now it's just the baseline to make swords viable in endgame. The current effect is nice and all, but it really is nothing more than a safety net so you don't get instakilled in a GM.

[@Nailfut]

Briarbinds are the best exotic piece Warlocks got since Osmiomancy Gloves. Kinda funny how both are gauntlets that enhance an aspect of their related subclass, both revolving around spamming ice or void buddies all over the arena. Seriously, though, Briarbinds alone can compete against Contraverse Hold and Nezarec's Sin. Then, if you combine it with exotic weapons like Bruied Bloodline of Collective Obligation you're good to go with the best Void build. Even Word of Crota shines with this build.

[@muriomoira]

This void build is the summoner every broodweaver aspired to be... Its strong, versatile and most of all, actually unique

[@supersizesenpai]

How is it unique? This is actually a pretty popular build. So many content creators have done videos on it. I guess Bloodline/Gyrfalcons is unique too. lol

[@muriomoira]

@@supersizesenpai I didnt said it was obscure, I said it was unique, bc it gives a unique summon that does more than dmg ticks for the summoner... Which is way more than anything broodweavers have.

[@supersizesenpai]

@@muriomoira My point is that there is nothing unique about it. It does generally the same thing as every other summon but with a different effect. Stasis buddy, arc, buddy, void buddy. Also while the void buddy does does more than tick damage, everything extra it does can be done by every other void class ie weaken. I'd say threadlings are far more unique. They chase enemies like they are actually alive and if they can't find a target they come back and perch on the warlock till they are deployed as a swarm. That is a far more unique. Also Broodweaver has the ability to turn into a damn wrath that can not only create hatchlings but also makes you invisible to enemies in pve. What more do you want? Listen, as a Warlock main I love both classes but there is no way you can say Void buddy is far more unique than Broodweaver.

Is it just me or does nobody know that you can blink/teleport with the synaptic spear? I mean I know within a GM it might not be the best thing to do but then again it might? Because you can blink/teleport while on the ground as well as in air and horizontally or diagonally not just vertically. It is so fast and covers so much distance it actually helps sometimes.
