Solo Grandmaster Heist Battleground Moon (Deathbringer w/ Orpheus Rig) [Destiny 2]

Destiny 2 Season of the Wish - Solo GM Nightfall Heist Battleground Moon Completion on a Hunter / Grandmaster Heist Battleground Moon Solo 1840 Max Difficulty / Grandmaster Destiny Nightfall Solo Heist Battleground Moon / Heist Battleground Moon Grandmaster Solo / Solo GM Heist Battleground Moon / Solo Gilded Conqueror. Just a video of a solo completion of the Grandmaster Nightfall The Ordeal this week in Heist Battleground Moon. Details below.
It's been a good few weeks since I've done a Solo GM, so here one is. I was thinking of different exotics to use that haven't really been ran in a long time, and I eventually settled on trying out Deathbringer. Unfortunately, it's kind of bad here. The tracking from the balls are way too slow, and it often actively avoids the Barrier champions, making them a nightmare to deal with. Even when you have Volatile Rounds or Radiant, I'd find it would try to avoid the Barrier Champion and track to an enemy nearby instead. As such, it's not really in a great spot. With more aggressive tracking, faster projectiles, some sort of priority system on key targets, and a reserves or damage boost, I think it'd be in a decent position. But this season I'd prefer to run almost anything else. On top of that, having the teleporting Scorn Raider boss makes it even worse, especially when it has such a massive health pool. So overall, nearly anything would be better to run here, but it does show something different.
I could've paired it with Lucky Pants to make up for the shortcomings, but I feel like it then takes away from the focus being Deathbringer, so I went with Orpheus instead. Similarly, Gyrfalcon's might've worked well with the Volatile, but as I mentioned before it'd often avoid the Champions, so I couldn't take advantage of the built-in Anti-Barrier from having Volatile either.
Lastly, I only got a gold score on this, as one of the Champions despawned in the beginning section when defeating the boss. I figured I might have the usual leeway of a Champion there, but it didn't work out and got the gold. It doesn't really matter at the end of the day, but I could've reset there if the platinum was important.

Bringing deathbringer into a solo gm clear has to go be one of the biggest flexes

[@jotarora9310]

Deathbringer my beloved (bungie please buff it)

[@ley_0304]

they should fix it instead of buff it.

I heard that before the witness goes to sleep, they check under their bed for Esoterickk.

[@DarkSiv]

Every time I watch you play I instantly jump on right after. It sounds corny, since y'know, it's a game, but you inspire me to accomplish more in this game that I have loved for so many years. Cheers! Edit: Dope cheese at the boss room!

[@ChristianPena-lt9gg]

Same here you’re not alone lmao

Faxx he makes me wanna finish getting the title for Warlords ruin 😅

[@sin7ex594]

I believe that this is one of the strangest setups to play a GM solo, and you know what? That is really impressive. I've almost forgotten about Deathbringer in PvE

[@impluto8]

this one was very interesting , great idea , loved it man

[@thomasdanhiez3089]

Perfect timing. Just when I was wondering if I should do the exotic mission for this rocket launcher now that shadowkeep is free. Thank you so much. I love watching your nightfall videos since the disgraced GM that took you more than an hour. It remembers me how bruta nightfalls were before.

[@whatifwaterwaschunky7199]

You might as well either way just to have it in collections

[@Moekro]

@@whatifwaterwaschunky7199 exactly its not that the weapon might not be meta or good rn but going down the road it might get better(looking at edge transit)

[@louniis]

My guy is playing on easy mode amazing, the amount of patience you have wild

[@remheng2372]

Eso, I see that Trails helmet! Need to see you in action in PvP!

Dang, haven't seen Deathbringer in a while!

Never would have thought to use DB but it makes perfect sense here, nice job!

Great video! Do you have plans for a solo pantheon?

I use the same Vulpecula for gm's I'm using Polaris, it's actually really good!

with a legendary bow too? brutal man

[@CaptainparaBellum]

You should do a telesto one.

I've a idea: Raconteur (shoot to loot explosive head crafted) Tyranny crafted Leviathan breath And Orpheus build. 4 bow build 😂

[@TrumpsGoofyAssMugshot]

He should legitimately do that

[@greatlikagreatdane]

Not many know this and i see alot of scuffed runs at the 2nd encounter with prtect the ghost but if you crouch behind pillar and peek holding aim you have no chance of being spotted by enemies

[@drypo6589]

What does that vulpecula do that made you choose it over other hc?

Shoot to loot

[@japanman5113]

How do you get anti Barrier on a bow that's not wish ender ?

[@adamkelana04]

radiant buff

[@redsploshon]

Artifact mod gives you radiant on rapid solar kills or headshots and radiant give anti barrier to all non anti champion weapons

Immaculate fit tbh

🎉

[@misterfleshd2]

[@camelat7228]

if only i didn't need to kill 100 guardians with grenade launchers in order for deathbringer to reach full effectiveness, it's a challenge enough to kill a single one with better weapons

[@daylightdies7194]

I think it’s momentum control just wait for that and slap on fighting lion

[@TheVictorio]

Just use witherhoard and dump shots in hallways when u see someone coming on ur radar

yeah ive had 0 issues egotistical ppl just cant fathom playing another way

[@devyn5516]

If the team isn't reliable or attentive for champion stuns, it's the only time I'd use double primaries. Multiple people on the team using double primaries is when the problem arises.

@@thetoolie5917 being able to stun with subclass verbs helped loadout versatility so much. It gives a lot of room to run what you want for champs.

In Onslaught there are a lot of sweaty players who will kick you from the lobby if you use double primary. I've seen and suffered from this with my strand warlock when I use the Final Warning and Zaouli for barrier and unstoppable champs. That's actually hilarious because I consistently get 1k+ kills there with a ton of support.
