Destiny 2: Nova bomb & chaos reach before & after buff

[@jesuschrist7833]

Do note, if you cast your super on critical health, One of the seasonal mods you get allows a 13% damage buff to your super. It adds an extra punch for your damage.

[@worldlinezero4783]

Or if you're amplified

[@Superfastfrog1]

I think it's 30%, based on a few other video's I've seen. Chaos reach should do about 800k with the seasonal mod on.

[@quandale_dingle6353]

Its definitely 30 %

[@XxkrazymagexX]

Even more if you combine thunderous with the other one a friend can run . Strand debuffs increase the damage of arc and void abilities. If you have 3 friends to run content with . One of you void to apply weaken ,strand for debuffs boosting both void and arc users ,and 3rd arc so they can go ham with the new boosted supers.

[@c_l_a_d_d_i_x]

@@quandale_dingle6353 it’s only around 13% for gathering storm since the 30% damage bonus only lasts for the casting animation “aka the super bar draining.” Since the majority of damage from gathering storm comes from the lightning strike, and the successive jolting (both of which happen after the super bar is depleted) they don’t get the 30% buff and averaging everything out the 30% to the impact damage is roughly 13% extra damage for the whole super duration. I know we were talking about chaos reach but since the 13% number was super specific, that is what the 13% is from and they probably just thought that was the same for all supers, which it isn’t

[@realnoble676]

Chaos reach is definitely good damage wise, it just sucks your stuck in the animation. Meta nowadays is burst damage supers so most warlocks will likely just go with something like strand or nova bomb because you throw it, forget about it and go back to using your guns

Chaos reach is now at least usable, but still not good enough. Base blade barrage and both nova bombs deal 10k more and come out a few seconds faster. Same goes for blade barrage w/ star-eaters vs. chaos reach w/ geomags. It's gonna need another buff.

You can get 350-400k if you weaken them too first too. It’s not the best but it’s still an instant super that gives you 300k-400k of extra damage off rip.

[@TheRealHippo-]

Still blows my mind how they buff these to around ~285k for chaos and 300k for nova if needle storm does 350k without the threadling fragment and 410k with it

[@jazay591]

They both have flexibility with add-clear potential, but I guess chaos reach is more reliable against every boss since you don't have a massive spread with it. Although they should at least do the same damage since you'd think the tradeoff for complete reliability with chaos reach would be it's cast time and not also lower damage. Doesn't make sense.

[@hatchell18]

You can weaken with a void grenade before using it and get 400k. Also you can mix in volatile rounds and get overall more dps. Plus needlestorm has shitty tracking and misses half the time

[@zingnator]

Honestly I’ve always used both of these supers as champion killers rather than DPS. On pretty much anything except for GMs nova just one shots champs. Chaos reach on the other hand… it’s just bad by design tbh. They need to reduce the firing time way down, like down to two seconds so that it can compete with other burst supers.

[@firewarrior2822]

It's not a burst super though, it's a hybrid. You can choose to room clear with it or deal high single target damage

[@jazay591]

Make sense that the tradeoff for such flexibility and reliability, when compared to needlestorm, would be it's long cast time (leaving you open as a target and also taking away the ability for instant burst damage), not also significantly lower base damage. All it's needs is to do the same base total damage as needlestorm IMO, then it's balanced.

[@zingnator]

@@firewarrior2822 but is it successful as a hybrid super? Absolutely not.

[@firewarrior2822]

@@zingnator I completely agree, but if bungie is going to make changes to it, they'd most likely be making changes with that thought process whether the community wants it or not

[@jazay591]

I think the problem with chaos reach shows if you compare it to needlestorm. They both have: add clear potential and boss/miniboss damage potential. Although chaos reach has the advantage of complete reliability and flexibility with it's cast time as lack of spread mechanic, although the cast time already provides a trade-off for such advantages since it leaves you open as a target and also removes you ability to use Reach as a real burst damage option. The solution would be to either introduce a mechanic to give chaos reach the ability to utilise burst damage (eg: when you cancel it you don't get any super energy refund but it releases a flash of a much more powerful arc laser that releases the remaining total damage of the super), or they could just make it have the same damage as needlestorm.

[@someclownontheinternet9398]

Chaos reach buffs were huge but it’s still gonna be bad unfortunately…oh well, at least ball lightning got some nice changes

[@brusselseastside3546]

i always wanted chaos to get a rework where you change the intensity of the beam. hold down trigger and you get a really wide kamehameha beam but you massively depleat energy for burst damage and less total damage or you can just let it run its course and focus more on major/minor ad clear with a much longer duration and far lower dps.

You're looking at the wrong numbers. It doesn't increase the damage by 80k, it goes from 447k to 629k which is 182k increase in damage, which is a 40% increase in damage. This is a huge jump with Geomags

[@tuoritto]

No, it doesn't technically make it that much better cuz it takes you even longer to channel the full thing. The damage isn't bad, but just using your weapons is better. It also provides jolt now, which lingers, as I understand, so it's kinda like Gathering Storm in that sense - you get more damage after it's over, too. If it does linger anyway...

[@BarderBetterFasterStronger]

Worse than a nova bomb without Mags. Way worse considering you can send a nova and then supplement with guns. So yeah, Mags is required for Reach to do more than tickle.

[@toyinjr]

using a grenade with echo of undermining and nova bomb helps to pump out a few % more of damage

[@HarmonicVector]

Chaos Reach is just bad by design. You're in a pseudo roaming super that has DPS comparable to most top Heavies. At that point, strap Nova on, and use Heavy. Until Chaos Reach is some lingering Super like say Kid Icarus Uprising's Megalaser, it'll always be considered bad unless the damage it deals is comparable to 2 Agg Frame rockets.

[@Nujamper]

Combine chaos reach with anarchy and the seasonal mod and its innnsane

[@josh___something]

I mean... It's there anyways and doesn't consume ammo. Nothing *else* uses super energy, why not cash it in. If it's "comparable to most top heavies", then you literally lose nothing to use it (and even save a few rounds). Not every super can be Well of Radiance, and shouldn't.

[@XxkrazymagexX]

My goal this season is witherhoard ,chaos reach , thunderous retort ,geomags ,hothead. That way you can pop class ability (arc soul) shoot with witherhoard ,pop super so witherhoard and arc souls are passively doing damage while animation locked ,super ends,grenade ,ball lightning ,witherhoard ,empty hothead. With the path of least resistance or tarnished mettle in the special slot with voltshot . Should be very respectable damage in a boss fight . Most raids have a weaken user or a div bubble . Anarchy would probably work well in the same rotation and maybe like a kinect slug/fusion in the primary.

[@tuoritto]

Well, that's good, but I feel it's a bit too complex for trying to be optimal damage. But I suppose if you want Arc specifically, then yeah. One problem remains either way: the entire rotations takes like 10 seconds with Chaos Reach alone, so for most bosses you might not even get to your Hothead

[@XxkrazymagexX]

@@tuoritto it's not complex at all. It's just a rotation . I had a rotation last season on strand that was doing almost 5 mil on bosses consistently and it was by no means optimal . You don't need to be optimal if you can get your damage to burst out as high as possible . Even if I do get to a second phase or don't get to finish the rotation next phase you still have 10 rockets that can get wolf packs and your abilities . There is never a moment you won't be doing very very high damage . I watched a video early of a guy with geomags have his friend hit boss with a tractor ,put unravel on a boss and he threw a nade and popped chaos. Did over 2 mil in less than 10 seconds and still had full heavy. That's a lot of firepower and ammo conservation optimal or not. Use it enough and you can make anything work in here . Destiny is moving away from optimal and rewarding combos and weird weapon combos with abilities and supers. No one is throwing a solar grenade and shooting a rocket inside a rift/well for boss damage ever again 😂. People actually have to be creative now .Instead of letting solar carry them through every endgame boss available .

[@tuoritto]

@@XxkrazymagexX That's quite the essay... I never said a single word about solar and fusion nades. All I meant is Arc is a bit underwhelming, at least on Warlock, and it'd work better woth Void or Strand. As for it not being too complicated... that is literally what I said? A bit too complicated? I just don't see the point in going that far if just LFR or Rocket Launcher works. Although experimentation is always fun

[@XxkrazymagexX]

@@tuoritto I mean I agree void is the better option you can throw on a ttf and weaken grenades ,triple surges,have constant overshields and weaken bursts . But I personally love arc ,the movement speed boost alone makes it feel like I can haul ass through encounters , finally has some good damage resistant artifact mods ,and like you said arc is usually ass so them allowing it some play this season was the green light for me to get to enjoy a rare treat and boosted chaos is hard not to like lol. Didn't mean to rant on ya . People just love dogging that super which 90% of the time is warranted but it's actually very solid where it's at with the current mods .

Was Nova Bomb even considered a buff? I mean come on, we’re comparing Kamehameha and Spirit Bomb here… Warlocks should have the opportunity to charge their Nova Bomb and-just like in DBZ-other Void Warlocks can share their super energy with the one charging his until he releases a planet-ending nuke on overly-large hive dude. Here’s how it would work: - Nova Bomb Warlock’s energy bar fills-up, super is charged. - 2 other Voidlocks near him have their super bar like halfway full - If the first warlock just taps the super button, it does what you see in this video - BUT, if he instead holds the super button, he stands still (unable to move while holding) with his arms raised straight up; Nova Bomb hovering above his head - His super energy slowly drains as he holds it, but the nova bomb slowly increases in size - Before his super energy his 0, his 2 Voidlock teammates can hold the button for their super and it’ll begin draining their bars of super energy - As long as the first Warlock is receiving energy from his teammates, his super bar is paused - Shortly after, both his teammates are back to 0 energy bc they’ve given it all to the first guy - First guy’s nova bomb is ready… and also the size of the farm - He throws it at the boss. - Right before it hits, the game glitches and teleports the boss back up to its original spawn - OP breaks his controller

@@Alckee6904 I'm talking about super damage alone, because after super I also do weapon damage, but for the super alone to do 1.3m is good and after that switch to weapons and start dps'ing with weapons, it's still a great option. Especially if your low on heavy.

[@Alckee6904]

people were screaming warlocks were going to be broken lmao yeah no. Just as it has been for nearly a decade warlocks wont have a competitive burst dps super.

[@josh___something]

You have a really narrow range of creativity, huh. This isn't a competitive game, you're allowed to have fun. The CR buff has made the super a lot more fun for a lot of people. Also... Buddy, destiny hasn't even been OUT for a decade. I highly doubt you think this was a problem since Destiny 1 launched.

Chaos reach my love, back to a place of good but not OP. My times imagining I'm goku will be much more fun now that I dont have to cry burning a super and watching it do nothing to a boss

Should just double the damage

>tfw we will never have a roaming supers dps meta Why even live, bros...

[@tuoritto]

Well because by their nature roaming supers lock you out of your weapon usage - meaning they need to do more damage than the weapons AND a standard burst super (like Nova Bombs) would do in the same time. But at that point, it just makes burst supers irrelevant cuz amo conservation, safety and ease of use. Roaming supers are still pretty good for adclear though

[@reanukeeves3882]

Wow! Who would've thought they're still trash

[@reanukeeves3882]

Why use your weapons for the entire damage phase when you can use most warlock dps supers!

[@reanukeeves3882]

Sorry for being so salty about this. I'm just losing my enjoyment of destiny entirely and I've played it since the beginning. Warlock main too. No shame

[@josh___something]

​@@reanukeeves3882 It's viable. You can't really have everything be top of the line (mostly because that'd be boring, and more importantly, _impossible to execute,_ since game balance is... A thing.), but that doesn't mean it's not worth using. Especially if people find it fun. Hope you find the fun again eventually, whether it be in destiny 2 or not.

They could add an extra 100k damage and it still wouldn’t make it anymore viable.

@@Buhry Well you can do the debuff without your super on Warlock very easily, though. Guess the Hunters melee now is more reliable, but still. The neutral game is really good so it makes sense, I feel. It could use a buff, but it's not terrible

[@chickinnipples]

I don't understand why all warlock supers do such little damage compared to the other class's supers. The argument that "they're supposed to be support" is fuckin dumb when we only have well as a support. Titans have bubble it gives the same amount of damage buff but they aren't labeled as a support class. Even every class has the healing nades on solar now.
