Solo Flawless Vesper's Host Dungeon on Warlock (Safe 3 Phase Final Boss) [Destiny 2]

Can i just say that i love his style of videos and guides. No commentary, no dilly dally, no BS just pure raw gameplay footage with some tips at the top on occasion, keep it up man well done!

[@bjcooper4365]

Sometimes I do wish he would talk. It gets annoying when you have to read all the text on some guides. But stuff like this doesn’t need it.

[@SchmucksInc]

I rarely comment, but I just wanna say thank you for doing this. I’ve seen nothing but Titan solo stuff when it comes to this dungeon and as someone who struggled with it, this helped me BEAT it and near flawless too. Sadly, a lightning field weakened me enough for stray shots… But I WON! Took the solo at last! Thanks to you. ^^ Keep up the good work!

Ive not commented before but thank you, Eso. Ive soloed all the kther dungeons but i dont know why, this was the hardest one for me. I tried titan and just finished now on warlock about 4 hours later with this strat. Thank you! 🤗

Bruh of course you upload this the day after I do my sketchy run

[@Yutoferrer1]

fun fact u can use song of flame with icarus dash and without heat rises u still have 2 dodges soo with u use a swap to rain of fire u can reload wardcliff 4 times in damage phase and shoot 7 times

[@natedavis7307]

I've been struggling with the actual DPS phase on my warlock and couldn't figure out how to do it. This may just be the answer I needed. Thanks in advance. Edit: Have now solo'd final boss with Eso's strat. Next up, flawless!

[@divvyc]

Hey Eso! Thanks to this video, I solo flawlessed VH on my third attempt with a 2-phase Raneiks and 3-phase Puppeteer. For Raneiks, I used Rain of Fire for quickly reloading Wardcliff. Therefore, my aspects were Icarus Dash and Heat Rises; you don't really need Hellion here because Sunbracers are enough by themselves while Heat Rises allows for Restoration x2. To get the 2-phase, I snapped and grenaded the servitors (in SOF), and then shot Wardcliff side-to-side across all of the servitors which provided best chunking (almost 1-phased on one of my failed attempts). I usually got 5-6 Wardcliff shots this way, with 1 manual reload between Icarus Dash cooldowns. For Puppeteer, the only difference is that I used a shotgun prior to damage phase, which was better at killing marauders and the clones. You must pre-load 15-20 missiles to get the 3-phase from what I could tell, which is a bit harder with immune panels fixed, but easy enough.

[@NateMunoz-he9qm]

I’m not sure if you’ve played around with it but the Heavy wave frame GL from Neomuna works wonders on Raneiks

[@magumble6107]

This with riskrunner means you basically dont die to adds in the room as well. I also went prismatic with star eater nova. The transcendence grenade form warlock pulls in all the mini dudes so you can easily hit them all.

[@snowy_shire]

this with a hotswap to Sanguine Alchemy for the DPS phase got me ~3mil per damage phase during my solo. Dimensional Hypotrochoid goes hard.

[@MiniMuni69]

Wardcliff can actually output more damage than Eso was able to show here, if you can do the dash reloads it’s a two phase

[@babybucks6664]

@@snowy_shire I second that. I’ve been using that since before this new season and I gotta say, I was stoked as hell when I found out stasis & GL’s were meta 😂 I have been fucking up folks left and right in onslaughts with that thing and right now, it’s my favorite power weapon atm. 💯

[@NateMunoz-he9qm]

@@MiniMuni69I would like for him to try it again because he could improve on a couple of things 1. I know Song of Flame gives Radiant and all, but he was also using it for Ignitions which Raneiks has damage resistance to. He should use Nova Bomb instead 2. He only got a couple of shots out of the Wardcliff Coil because he spent his time using his grenade and melee

[@memeaids4766]

Finally. My Flawless guide has arrived

[@omolon-scout-rifle]

look, it's John Destiny again soloing every new piece of content

[@adambrown6669]

Amazingly, Salvations grip off all things is really good here too. It does the stasis chunk damage pretty well. Not quite as devastating as Ward cliff but still surprisingly good.

[@IKingCaesar]

Bro that bomb save after the first dps phase💀💀

[@c.m.6358]

I love Choir of One, I haven't put it down since I got it!

[@kurtru5selcrowe607]

For the first encounter I recommend running a heavy GL with Deconstruct instead of Bait and Switch. It procs on the brigs and deals like 40% more damage while reloading itself on hits.

[@jordanbrad2298]

What is making his grand overture reload at times such as this? 50:23 Edit: Found it. He uses the Concussive Reload boost tonic which makes other weapons reload whenever Concussive Reload procs. 43:45

[@thrilla72]

Well done, because I had no idea 😅

[@pici7826]

Glad to see the stag is still shining, for fireteam setups ita still bugged, it doesn't creates rifts on death, but the main stuff still works! Awesome vid.

[@BradleyKO]

Followed your titan setup to get it done yesterday, good stuff

[@huhsahdude]

always like the builds that you used for each encounter and I was curious what you would do for the third one AND THEN I SAW YOU STAND ON TOP OF THE ANTENNA LIKE WTF

[@NeExil]

Ima wait till ignitions are fixed to do this. Was thinking about using a Titan but this video made it look way easier Tho i am scared of a warlock moment in the jumping puzzle

[@jmuk3571]

Has anyone ever heard this legend talk?

[@erikburgundy1769]

I think what’s cool about this dungeon, more so than any dungeon we’ve had, is the sheer variety. I’ve seen 5+ solo flawless warlock builds that have all been totally different from each other, but still do the job. This isn’t like Warlord’s, where you either ran Sunbracers + Well or Dawn Chorus + Daybreak.

[@Niklas.Kirchner]

Did Warlords with karnstein. Thought it would be the obvious build for the dungeon.

[@adityapatil1084]

Now that's a new spot

[@barbecue1015]

You can three phase first boss with a Star Eater’s Nova and Parasite with some reload mods, I’ve gotten it before on my runs but not during my flawless run largely due to messing up a damage rotation

[@yahyachaudhry6729]

Where do you stand when you're doing boss dps? Above the bunker door?

[@barbecue1015]

@@yahyachaudhry6729 for first boss I stand behind the glass pane to the left of the boss, where the suppressor shank usually goes. I drop a rift for healing, make the replica and shoot it behind the pane. It’ll still split the servitor for dps if it’s behind the glass

[@stevemcexpert]

you can two phase him with wardcliff + rain of fire

[@mantisproductions31]

Loading the missles off of the operator panel had me rolling haha

[@claudvigilante]

People were doing that during contest mode, it's not a new strategy.

[@OneFastRaccoon]

really interested to see your hunter run later, i've seen a couple completions and they all look so sketchy, really hoping there's a "safe" strat like titan/warlock

[@sforsyth2911]

Exactly. Titan and warlock have ways to heal/tank all that damage. Hunter is by far the hardest class to do this on.

[@Rhapsody_]

How effective is the solar build now considering that ignitions, which I assume are the foundations of the build, have been considerably shadow nerfed?

[@vandeezee5911]

Ty for a warlock video 🙏🏾 I felt so pressured to use titan this season, I thought there was no hope for me as a warlock main

[@sirdapplton]

Great run! At 18:54 you shoot a wardcliff volley and it's automatically reloaded again. I can't spot anything in your linked DIM loadout that can do this. Can you elaborate?

[@tinam2768]

Does safe 3 phase imply that there is a risky 2 phase? XD But yeah that was awesome! An exciting run! I dont understand why you needed to go another round with Reiniks, like when we do this encounter the shield doesnt come back up at this little amount of hp?? Also don't worry those open reactor room doors are not a bug its a feature :'D (that ruined some runs for us cause we fell into the door even tho it was supposed to be closed lol)

[@slappywag7210]

I can’t even get a team to help with the catalyst and we have people soloing this thing😂

[@warlockholmes]

You should try out heat rises Icarus dash for the raeniks, it works wonders for reloading that wardcliff

[@hogg8984]

I worked out the final boss takes around 400 shots of grand overture 🤓 you can get max 154 shots of ammo in per damage phase (without scavs or drops)

[@ryanmcintyre8630]

Ive been using the tower strat for a few evenings now with great success... but last night i got struck by the lightning on that tower? I must have the worst luck😂

[@theeorangelemon]

If your mini tool has more than 100,000 kills the gun now belongs to you

[@BobbittJ]

Would you suggest Titan or Warlock for the solo flawless clear?

[@adambrown6669]

Warlock is probably the safest for healing methods, Titan is probably the best for the servitor boss just because of the stasis super but otherwise sunspots are all they really have to stay alive in the final boss phases.

[@1994mrkac]

Is Raeniks doable on the previous, prismatic build u had on? :)

[@NoBodyHome639]

33:53 not having final stand here is WILD

[@Kirbylini]

55:00 sure got hairy, nice recovery though. like 1s before getting nuked

[@bobnnate]

I wonder if sunbracers with touch of flame would be effective if you melee the suppressor shank and then throw 5 at the ceiling, grab sup and start DPS.

[@klubbs617]

Man I tried soloing Raneiks last night and did half of your damage my first phase. After countless deaths to the exploder shanks and the pitiful damage, I gave up lol. I used nova bomb and bait and switch gl. I guess worcliff is better?

[@goodtim3s394]

How did you have perma armour charge in the final boss section?

[@rmriley33]

Hello, before your first dps phase of the final boss. How do you have 3 armor charge stacks that dont depreciate?

[@zonecrimzon1222]

So have two loadouts with the same armor set, one of the loadouts has triple surges and all your damage mods, and the other loadout just put on special finisher and whatever orb generation mod you want to run and then a regular universal build for like regular stuff, and use the regular loadout before damage and right before you start damage swap to the surge loadout, I’d recommend having double time dilations on your class item on the damage loadout 🫡

[@zonecrimzon1222]

Special finisher will allow you to get the charges and maintain them infinitely as long as you don’t use them, while surges will automatically begin depreciating them

[@rmriley33]

@@zonecrimzon1222 specifically he's using 1-2 Finisher. That's allowing essentially to store charges?

[@rjpeters15]

@@rmriley33 ye. basically any of the yellow armor charge mods on the class item only take away your armor charge if you hit a finisher. So long as you dont finish anything youll have it forever. allows you to have ammo scavs or recup on your legs during mechanics. Then right before dps swap to a loadout that used all the same abilities, aspects, fragments, and probably same heavy since you dont want to lose ammo (swapping special weapons is generally fine because the ammo transfers a lot better, so long as its in the same slot obv), but put surges on your legs and as many time dilation on your class item as you can. Because you had 3 armor charge stored already, the game just starts using those for your surges. then just swap back after dps and rinse and repeat

[@troyav]

Never sleep on warlocks

[@Sommerk91]

2nd boss is brutal without a Titan

[@ToneStormx]

Instead of going on top of that antenna beam tower thing can you also go on that oil tank crate?

[@sportsguy23]

The problem with the oil tank is the clones can punch you

[@rjpeters15]

melee clones can hit you and the lightning sometimes kills you anyways even though you aren't on the ground. You could still go there, but will have to time some jumps with the lightning strikes to try to ensure they dont kill you. The antenna doesnt have the same issue because its more off the ground.

[@Zio-e5t]

How is all your damage dealt to the final boss, Crit Damage? Am I missing something?

[@adambrown6669]

There is an artifact mod on the seasonal artifact that is just breach and clear with a new name, damaging a boss with any grenade launcher weakens them, which translates to yellow numbers. That's why he hotswaps to that stasis GL, he's getting the benefit of that and the other mod that increases arc damage vs targets afflicted with stasis effects.

Is this an FPS issue?? 100 res, rec, dis, arc resist x2, Stag healing rift, and healing grenade at the exact same spot and the adds are ripping through my health faster than the rift can heal. EDIT: on final boss during DPS Something about this isn’t making sense to me

[@yahyachaudhry6729]

Can you put a well down on that boss dps spire you use?

He doesn't do it legit he lowers fps to 30rps to give himself a massive advantage none of his solos were legit and he wonders why Bungie didn't pick his videos as achievement of the week

[@adambrown6669]

​@@Maddog1296hardly a massive advantage, last gen console players also have 30 fps and they didn't go off doing crazy feats every Tuesday. You still need area awareness, strategy, reflexes and knowledge of how to make and use a build effectively in an encounter, all things he clearly has, regardless of if he uses 30 or 60 fps or more. It's still more legit than most runs that abuse encounter skips, weapon exploits or whatever else cheese forever revealed that week to get past the boss.

Is there a reason you sometimes wait for your health to be in the red to pop your rift?

It's to proc the stags ability that gives your rift back when you're low hp. That's how he get's it back so fast.

which mp i can use insteand of mida minitool?

[@rjpeters15]

if you mean for last, he is using Calus minitool. But any incandescent smg (or other weapon type) will work. Typical ones would be zaolis from Kings fall, the summoner from trials, epochal integration from neomuna, lunas howl from onslaught, Ammit from the enclave, etc. For smgs specifically your other options are bug out bag which i think you can only get from xur or banshee when they randomly have it, or no survivors from ghosts of the deep. really any solar weapon would work to extend radiant and restoration which is why he is running calus, the community just tends to favor incan ones for the aoe

[@timpanzeee]

Is there any reason for running tier 9 resilience on the stag build?

[@rjpeters15]

probably just as high as his armor would let him get while still have 100 in both recov and discipline so he could get his healing back faster.
