15 Exotic Combos that are REALLY STRONG

Exotic combos are really strong interactions between an exotic weapon and exotic armor. Some combos give you 20 second supers, some turn you invincible, and others can spam abilities. So in this video, I’ll go over 15 Exotic Combos that are REALLY STRONG.

[@legofski1]

Can we test this please lol *insert 500% damage* hahaa

[@NuclearRizzicist]

I think one of the best parts about this video is the fact that some of these builds have been a thing since Forsaken, and alot of people just completely forgot because theyre so caught up in the current big meta instead of exploring creativity.

[@cferguson3308]

Great video. There's a lot of combos that I never thought of before. I appreciate your insight and ideas. Take care, Ferg

[@ttttiiiieeeessss]

This is an amazing video, i knew most of the combos but with a lot of them i didn know about some of the details that make them even better than i thought they were!

[@PixelleHearts]

One thing you forgot to mention was that you can stack 2x Kinetic Surge mods to increase your Golden Gun super damage during Celestial Nighthawk. This also lets you double dip into Bad Juju's damage as well since it is kinetic. NOTE: Do not put on more than 2x Kinetic Surge as anything higher will not register for benefitting super damage. Try out Mantle of Battle Harmony on Strand Warlock with Wish-Keeper. One of Wish-Keeper's drawbacks is that it has lower damage output... but with Mantle of Battle Harmony, not only do you get increased super gains, you also get free permanent uptime on Strand Surge x4 so long as you keep your super energy full. This allows Wishkeeper to do significantly more damage, lets you run a suite of 3x surges of your choice on your leg armor because you get free 4x surge from Mantle of Battle Harmony, and triple down on suspend builds with the Wanderer suspension bouncing betties you get from tangle detonations alongside consuming your grenade for 30 second of final blow suspensions as well as Threadweaver Arrows from Wish-Keeper. Wish-Keeper also will be able to slot in 20% boss/champion damage with Vorpal Weapon OR Hatchling which will always proc on suspended enemies because suspended targets' hitboxes are considered precision hits.

[@GungHoSourdough]

Just to say, using void with the peregrine combo and the bastion and offensive bulwark aspects, you can get an extra 100k on that shoulder charge, especially when you have devour up.

[@rainingregiment9118]

Also provides an instant max overshield

[@IceColdPistol]

"Just like most builds in this game, Warlocks can do the same thing, but better" Me, a Hunter main: Never have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with

[@CriTicOfsOrts]

Weren’t hunter obliterating stuff with trip mines

[@dragonthunder62364]

​@@CriTicOfsOrtssort of. They still did less damage than warlock fusion nades, and you had to follow a set pattern to get the most trip mines (5 if timed right) Now it's been severely nerfed, and you can't do it anymore

[@RagingIfrit]

The 13th combo with monte carlo and kephri's sting, it does take your melee, but the bayonette kill also refunds the powered melee at the same time; so it aint a bug

[@peterp9328]

I wanted to try that combo, but somehow the invis won't work for me, do you know by any chance why that may be? My understanding is that Kepris instantly triggers the smoke bomb which weakens the target (at least it should with Trapper's Ambush) and the target is killed after that, which should in turn activate the invis from Stylish Execution. But this won't happen most of the time for me, I can see the smoke bomb from Kepris being cast but won't be invisible, whether I use a normal melee or the Bayonet. My Melee is of course charged when trying the combo. The loop works when casting my smoke bomb "by hand" (not via Kepris) to weaken enemies, then defeating them, then starting to melee - but this kinda sucks :/

[@RagingIfrit]

@@peterp9328 so the effect won't work on single enemies that easily, due to them dying to the DMG of the bayoneted, it's much easier to see the loop in a group of enemies cause the first will die to melee DMG, but the others will now be hit by the smoke bomb debuff

[@peterp9328]

@@RagingIfrit Aah, that explains my experience when trying this build. In the video it looked like only a single enemy died to start the chain, but I seem to have been mistaken in that regard. In that case, this feels too random (or unreliable) for my personal taste :/ But thank you for your explanation!

[@RandyVoortman-gz7pc]

And many people forget the second part of stylish excutioner. While invis from stylish,your next melee weakens enemies. It even does on normal mêlee,s and increases their damage by 100%

Now while the weapon isn’t an exotic, I’ve been having a good bit of fun with Triton Vice on Hunter and the Ecliptic Distaff ritual weapon. Shooting 1 single add that is a final blow will: 1: activate Destabilising Rounds making all nearby enemies volatile. 2: THEN Triton Vice’s explosion happens when you’re Void too. This kills said volatile enemies. 3: With the number of explosions, you’ve wiped a room. 4: As the cherry on top, you’re invisible for anything that remains.

[@DegenerateLoser]

wow man holy. thanks. im definitely gonna try out some of these builds theyre amazing

Great vid, thanks!

hey thanks - i've just come back to destiny 2 after not playing since warmind and this has been really helpful. looking forward to not dying all the time

[@Gunth0r]

Great timing, I was just about to redesign all my loadouts for the remaining time of the season. I've got my loadouts organized like so: - solar / arc / void / stasis / strand - crucible / gambit / vanguard (mostly geared towards nightfalls and lost sectors) - iron banner (because iron banner gear) - raid (specifically, my highest dmg build) I like some of these a lot (like the hunter knives + onetwo + tractor + ophidia) and I'll be using those as basis for my own version. Thanks!

[@perrycarters3113]

"Warlocks can do the same thing, but better" L I S T E N- I didn't ask to be born superior.

[@BrandonPaulLee]

The kepri monte combo I was totally unaware of. Nice.

[@ryuu.9784]

To add to the 15th combo, if you use that build with Polaris in GMs, with the help of an artifact mod, Polaris essentially covers Unstop and Barrier. Shred through champs with ignitions without reloading, whilst getting crazy nade damage and energy.

[@alicemilton8756]

This is an awesome video and I’m saving it in the archives 🍕

i unfortunately already knew that glaive trick but im glad you just throw those tips in there for new players. these videos are sick

Great video bud, very useful🎉

[@Reloaded51224]

Thank you for making this video

[@TheBadger]

The wonderer aspect is nice mainly for the suspension effect, w/ Swarmers ur threadlings unravel target meaning the kill will spawn a tangle regardless.

[@leavenotrace4567]

I've personally been using Verglas Curve with renewal grasps build where I constantly make endless stasis crystals which increases the recharge of the grenade so I'm constantly freezing targets and it's great in add clear as well cause shooting it near groups just destroys everything it also does a lot of damage to bosses to

[@Reclaimer121]

it's such an underrated bow, been using it with frostees eversince it came out

[@wickedweavile4612]

I wanna try out both of these now

[@Sweeneh]

@@wickedweavile4612I feel like Wish Keeper is a superior elemental Exotic bow but Verglas is still decent for sure. I just find the alternate fire ability for Wish Keeper much more potent. It also has considerably better stats iirc.

[@leavenotrace4567]

@@Sweeneh it does have it's unique ability for being more potent but in my opinion it just doesn't do the damage output like Verglas cause with Wish you need the hits or kills to build up like Verglas but when you shot out the crystals the crystals count as it's kill so you keep an endless loop going if you play it smart and constant grenades to with the fragment but both work extremely well I just wish Verglas's catalyst did a little bit more but it's perfectly understandable cause it can be very strong

Using precious scars with any incandescent weapon will light up the battlefield like a neighborhood during the Christmas holiday season with how much sun spots and restoration you'll be getting. Bows and hand cannons especially

[@Ryseed]

tbh for the 9th combo you can use heat rises and phonix dive while the buff is active to proc resto x2 so you can use a spicy exotic instead like Dawn Chorus

[@snekiboi2566]

For the Glaive using the block and melee attacking was already a tip I immediately figured out it when I first got the Glaive and I’ve been doing it ever since

[@chincemagnet]

A lot of good ideas for builds here, sometimes it’s good to get a reminder of other builds if you get stuck on one for too long

[@artdog0100]

Love the video and the builds! 🙏 But if ever again in the future could you put these in categories of class? I try your builds on the fly. There really good.

[@donsmemoryvideos50]

It's an old build, so not exciting for old players but, Contraverse Hold/Graviton Lance with Ashes to Assets on the helmet is amazing. 👌

[@CptMaximus]

Can confirm this build still absolutely slaps

[@toriellsimon9075]

I have a mothkeepers strand build, I don’t use it all the time but I swear it’s one of the most fun times you’ll ever have. It also carries in GMs. Constant overshield and blinding so you technically don’t need unstoppable as long as you have your grenade

[@TheShagodelic]

Ever since your midnight gourmand video, I've been using fried spam a lot more, and it works really well as the meat in a breakfast sandwich.

[@Based_Shogun]

Just got a good Apotheosis roll and this was the first vid I went to.

[@TheRealSylent]

Veritys brow also works if you run heal nades just wont have the extra dmg but it still gives the other benefits too your team and gives you faster heal nade recovery

[@owensy365]

great content man keep it up..

[@GK-R]

the hunter build with ophidian is actually what I mainly used for a while because it was powerful ad clear and decent boss damage

[@donik4551]

A crazy Build would be, the exotic strand bow with neocrotics and this void volitile finisher with a void fusion rifle with Reservoir burst and some other perk.

[@joeljaramillo9667]

Wanderer is not necessary for the 12th combo. Swarmers already make threadlings apply unravel which will make kills spawn tangles. If pairing swarmers with wish-keeper the best option is weavers call + mindspun invocation, since you can simply spam perch 5 threadlings, added bonus of releasing all upon casting a rift.

[@DrKFlares]

Best video of this neverending season

[@MaliciousSurryc]

I like Tommy's matchbook with precious scars because you can always be full in health with a fully revved Tommy's for extra damage+scorch and ignitions

[@simianhawk]

havent done exactly rigorous testing or anything, but the new geomags and like delicate tomb or a voltshot weapon with electrostatic mind lightning surge and spark of ions makes it so that you get chaos reach just by walking through a room of ads doing the sliding melee and wiping the rest with delicate tomb. havent tested legendaries with voltshot but delicate tomb i feel like fits best since picking up an ionic trace gives essentially voltshot which by applying jolt spawns more ionic traces and the cycle continues. the issues of the build are lack of survivability on arc and ammo economy as you burn through a decent bit of special with delicate tomb but not that much of a problem when you demolish an entire room before it can deal damage to you. a nice bonus is that you can run spark of beacons if you really want and your weapon on its own can now deal with unstops with blinding explosions and overloads with jolt

[@federal5842]

Empyrean overrides Solace, the only thing Solace does it increase the initial time of gaining Radiant or Restoration, Empyrean will always cap it at 12 seconds.

[@RashedHiyasat]

Apparently i am too outdated on D2 gear. i barely know these exotics! Thank you for the great video.

[@garretcorn7654]

I've been using ex diris and mothkeepers as soon as they came out, perfected a build on it and loved it before it was cool

[@3ndlessL00p]

The Ex Diris+Mothkeeper is great on Strand hunter too. Try it with Threaded Spectre, Whirling Maelstrom and the fragments Generation, Fury, Transmutation and Warding. Trust me.

[@user-gm5gl3lh3i]

Dawn chorus with dragons breath goes crazy too if you use some extra specs

[@FR0ST125]

I run the osteostriga smg and the necrotic grips. It MELTS crowds, keeps me from ever reloading, and keeps a constant tick on bosses and shield combatants keeping them from healing.

[@zucchini2339]

The mothkeepers build actually works best with strand. Tread of ascent with the fragment that gives more grenade energy means you have 3 basically instant charge nades that also apply jolt for some reason

[@f8gaming409]

I would like to add to the karnstein combo, use strand and Monte Carlo, you’ll never have to reload and strand will always be full on top of constant restoration, it takes a second to learn the timing but once you do, flawless

[@Kerosiin]

I’d recommend strand for the moth build. Triple grenades, and dealing damage recharges your grenade

[@CasualSensei]

Shinobus vow also works pretty well with bad juju but I believe it would better for ad clear

[@theantagonist2960]

Imma use that solar hunter build with the tractor cannon. Thanks

[@Xander-bl4ho]

I'm pretty sure Verity's can be used with Necrochasm because the cursed thrall explosion counts as arc

[@Tp_OverHeat]

about the glaive melee trick: you can spam your jump button (on warlock or titan, warlock is best for it tho) to melee about 3-4x as fast as normal

[@Tp_OverHeat]

also about the ex diris combo: I would use it on strand with widow's silk for three moth grenades

[@danteengle]

The first minute I had the moth arms with ex dris my mind immediately knew what I had to do

[@gangstersnow]

The winterbite ranged shot also counts as melee damage and kills, so it will stack wormgods also

[@vipset87]

Can you help me understand wormgod? Does it do more weapon DMG on higher procs?

[@gangstersnow]

@vipset87 yea it increases melee and weapon damage with stacks

[@BREAKocean]

For the moth mayhem, strand is also strong because of having double grenades and grenade regen

[@onelongboi5848]

when Peregrine greaves first came around, you could use it with a 1-2 punch shotgun, good times, a little broken but boy it was fun.

[@slade6959]

Why doesn’t 1-2 punch still work with peregrine greaves?

[@prismancermason5040]

I like using sun shot with pyrogale gauntlets because it makes sunspots do more damage

[@attackmanatee02]

Mothkeepers gives you 3 grenades on strand with the extra grenade aspect equipped

[@throwitouttheairlock9556]

For solos: Vex mythoclast + rain of fire and restoration 2x fragment with solar kills extend the effect (Vex itself gives you radiant constantly w RoF, rest 2x given by the grenade keeps refreshing, and 3x solar stacks give it monstrous damage output. For example with the 200% increase to champions that it’s linear mode does I 1 tap barrier champions in the head in normal Crota, I imagine it’s not a 1 tap in master but still C H O N K)

[@gibster9624]

100% recommend Verity's Brow with Wishkeeper. Artifact mod that spawns threadings off of damaging unraveled enemies and you have an army of threadlings plus team support on boss damage. Your teammates get more grenades which only leads to spreading your unravel debuff more. You basically combo is any of the other builds that your teammates run because everyone is wanting grenades cooldowns to be as low as possible and you get a crazy strong super to back it all up.

[@WDGabe]

Tbh, I've been running Mythoclast + Battle Harmony, but I might switch Mytho for Merciless and rock a weapon w/ Osmosis to get the x4 solar surge for Merciless.

[@erikdouglas9952]

So I've seen this in a few videos now, but how do you get that 5th ember in combo 10? Looking online just keeps linking to how to buy them which is easy enough

[@justsomeguywithamoustachea2712]

I play a strand titan bulid which is jack of all trades ultimate survivability and support titan bulid. I use precious scars with quicksliver storm. into the fray and banner of command aspects and reslly u can use any fragments u the only mandatory one is picking up orbs of light gives u woven mail. I use ikelos with one two punch to still do really good melee damage and apex predator such a strong bulid for everything except gms.

[@mickcurry2059]

This would be absolutely fantastic if there was dim links to all the builds ❤

[@Thundah_Dome]

I use precious scars with aegaers scepter. Crowd control and heading.

[@MANDALORE380]

For the ex diris moth keepers if you run strand you get 3 grenade charges so you can become a moth god

[@sgtbackfisch7498]

if you want restoration for yourself go with lorelei insteed of precious scars because of the sunspots but if you wanna be a bit more on the support side go with the scars

[@corrosiongod]

Did they ever fix the damage of winterbite paired with worm gods? Was less than it should be in astecrosses vid not long ago. Also Maven did a golden gun spam vid showing bad juju, celest combo good info on it there. Keep making combo vids man, you are awesome!

[@provaricus627]

If you’re using Swarmers, The Wanderer is useless (aside from the suspend) since Threadlings will unravel enemies, and unraveled enemies turn into Tangles. It’s better to use that slot for something else.

[@randomchicken0939]

As a Peregrine user, Tractor is not really neccesary except some very specific cases, your damage is already insane and champions and almost every miniboss just dissapears on legend and normal difficulties

[@dreamingleviathan3354]

I would just like to remind people that shoulder charge can be used with wormgods. And yes it is better. and yes the Titan's aspect that basically turns your melee into a minigun does scale with Wormgods.
